7Fa STUDY for your EXAM!! (please remember to come prepared)

Wednesday, June 8, 2011












7F:

1) The ordered pairs (-50, -24) and (20, 4) lie on a line. Calculate the slope between them, algebraically find the y-intercept, then write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. Then draw the graph of the line.
2) Rewrite 9 - 3y = 6x in slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and the y-intercept, and draw the graph of the line.
3) Suppose you have a square whose perimeter is 64cm. Inside of the square you have a half-circle whose diameter is 10cm. Draw a sketch of this. Find out what area would be left if you cut the half-circle out of the square.

6S p406 #2all. Use the area formula for triangles that was given in class. Write the formula each time and show your steps. If you need another explanation, click here for an exciting instructional video!

Tuesday, May 31, 2011



8G finish the two problems started in class (where you had to divide and rearrange terms) and solve the three problems pictured (you will have to divide and/or rearrange, then proceed as usual)


7F finish class work (pp139-140 #6 and 7, draw the diagrams for #7) as well as these two problems: p141 #9 and 10.


6D Bring your corrected polygon/angle quiz to the next class


6S Correct your polygon/angle quiz; finish the class problem and do p265 #3all, #4de (write an equation for the sentence given, AND solve it).

Monday, May 30, 2011



8G: Try to get the same solution to the class problem using the quadratic formula and then solve these three problems using Completing the Square. The following are some links that might be helpful to look at to review the process:
Purplemath (scroll down to 2nd ex); The Math Page (they use some fancy language but you can get it); Brightstorm video (I recommend watching the "Concept" video then skip down to problem 3); Illuminations (the applet/tool I used in class, you can play with it).

7Fa: 1. Figure out scale factor needed to get class problem (enlarged figure) back to original size. SHOW OR EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT IT ..... and.... in your book: 2. p132 #1, 3, p133 # 8abc, p138 #2ab, 3abc SYW for each

6D: Correct your polygon/angle quiz. In your book do: pp265-266 #5all. You do not have to draw the shapes but you DO have to write and solve an equation for each, showing same steps on both sides of course.

Friday, May 27, 2011

8G Solve the equations given in class (which I attempted to insert here). Remember to show every step and find BOTH solutions.








BOTH GRADE 6 CLASSES: DO: p262 #5abcdefgh
Copy the eqn from the book THEN show your steps (on both sides). This is due on Monday for 6D and on Tuesday for 6S and if you want the link to the activity we used in class, go to yesterday's blog post :)

3. 3x + 3 = 2x + 7
4. 6x + 5 = 5x + 7

6S Solve the following equations:
1. 2x + 3 = x + 6
2. 3x + 3 = x + 5
3. 4x + 4 = x + 7
4. 3x + 2 = 2x + 3
