Chapter 6 Only Test

The test is only on Chapter 6 and you will not have to eyeball a line of fit. You will have the option of answering an extra credit question so be sure you have legitimate data from any year after 1989.

The cumulative practice test was to let you know how much algebra you know (or don't).

Linear Inequalities

Last lesson in Chapter 6! The test is Friday.

To earn extra points on the quiz, bring a year and time for the men's Ironman World Triathlon in Hawaii. Any year and time from 1990 on will count for extra credit. Be sure you get an accurate time. You should convert the time to minutes (round to the nearest whole minute). Be careful when searching the Internet so that you have accurate data.

How Many Forms Do You Know for Linear Equations?

Can you give an example for each?

A non-example of a post is: "I did my homework." You need to write something with more math in it or answer someone's question about homework or in-class work.

Homework:
Finish all of Lesson 6-8
Quiz on Wednesday, Lessons 6-4 through 6-6

Happy Birthday to Albert and Pi Day to All!

Have you googled today? What did you notice?

Is it just coincidence? Albert Einstein's birthday is today too!

Would you like to hear what the digits of pi translated to music sounds like? Listen to tubular bells. You might also like to try some art based on the digits of pi on the same site.

Who's eyeballed line is going to come closest to the line of best fit?

More Writing Equations for a Line

Today in class, we reviewed point-slope form for equations of lines. Tomorrow we will take a second look at writing equations for lines given two points.

Homework for Friday:

1. Lesson 6-5, Applying.
2. Pass in Algebra with Pizzazz, p. 155.

Homework for Monday:

1. Finish Lesson 6-6, all of it
2. Study for a quiz on Lessons 6-1 through 6-3...should be really easy.
