If anyone is in the same boat, it's really quite helpful.

Math Reflection

Today in class we handed in an assignment we recieved yesterday. Then everyone worked on anything they had that was math related in class. Most people worked on accelerated math, but it was your own choice on what you wanted to do.

Catching up

Today we just had a working class..
Today our class didn't learn anything we just worked on our compound interests and accelerated math.

Today was the last day we get to work on the budgeting, and finish all assigments and get them into Max for marks. When we finish we can work on accelerated math.

Math Reflection

Today in class we worked on doing budgeting on a spreadsheet. We learned how to make the formulas to get the correct answers. It was a good class to get work done because it was very quiet and everyone in class was working hard on trying to get some of the assignment done.

Janes garden




Today we did the questions about janes garden we learned how to put it on exel and how to put it in your stat plot on your graphing calculator. the plot on exel is saved on the transfer drive for you to use.

The domain on any and all quadratic functions is always as seen above. The range however is always the same as or less than the y intercept in the vertex.
ex. Y is less than or the same as -2 if the Vertex=1,-2




this is saying you can ge the vertex you can out it into common for and then the h and k will be equal to the vertex.

this is saying that to make the parabola narrower the coeficent increases and to make it wider it must become a decimal number but to keep it in the standard form the coeficent needs to be 1




This is the common form of all quadratic functions similar to y=mx+b is to linear functions.

Non-Linear Systems

Today in class we learned that Non-Linear systems dont cross the x axis in more then one spot at one time, and we learned about the Linear function, Quadratic function, and the Other function. We learned which way each of these functions makes on the graph.

Math attendence, yo.

Today was a work period, so there is no new information to be blogged about. To prevent this from being tiny, Mr. Max suggested I write about something that is important to all of us. So I chose attendance. Learning the hard way, I found out that attendance in math is super important to get a passing grade. The math isn't the tough part, but if you aren't here to get everything done, then your mark shows it.

Stay in school, kids.
Elcie.

Today we talked about how homework has to be done sometime as long as you do it then your good. After that is was just a workn class.

Friday, September 18, 2009

We also talked about the diffrent types of systems and how they work.

We also deal with substitutions where the coefficente were really nasty decimals but all we did was multiply by 100 as seen above to make the equation look nicer and be easier to use.

Today we wnet further into the substitution method.

We started by correcting the question assigned yesterday,as seen below
