Let's talk exam.

First of all, reminder, you need to pass your targets in order to pass the class reguardless of how infinite campus has averaged your grade.

Your exam will be a final chance to get any of those to passing, if need be, or to have that target re-tested.

This sheet will be handed out to you next week.

I advise that you look at your standards (other than the highlighted ones, everyone is testing on those) and decide if you need that standard assessed again.  

It is not advisable to pick ones where you are happy with your grade, because then the exam could actually bring it down if for some reason things don't go well.  

So, go to infinite campus now, look at where you are at, and make some notes about targets you would consider.   That way when you hand it in next week, you do not feel pressure to make a snap decision.  

Let me know if I can help. 

As always, leave a comment if you wish to ask a question that way.  

The triangle

So a lot of you remembered Pascal's triangle and the binomial theorem as a pre-break topic, do you also remember how to use it?

A visual to refresh.

Your notability has the note Binomial Theorem Notes filled out and ready to help you with today's assignment.

Today's assignment:  bb9,  Back in swing Day 2.  Go get started.

Leave any questions you might have in the comments.  (Pascal's triangle or other topics)

Back to the Grind.

Here we are, whether we want to be or not.
No use fighting it, so let's embrace the work to be done.

First up, restoring our knowledge of unit 5, polynomials.

Post one topic that was done in unit 5, pre break.  
However the rule is that no one in your pod can post the same topic.  Decide who is posting what before submitting your comment.  
Use your bb9 to help remind you if needed.........I won't tell. 

Mark your calendars.

Friday December 18th,  Polynomial Summative.  

There will at least be
5 exponent problems
4 polynomial operations
3 polynomial factoring
2 graphs with end behavior
and
1 partridge in a pear tree, I mean synthetic substitution.

Leave a list in the comments of any areas still in need of practice prior to.  

Optional:  favorite Christmas song.   mine is little drummer boy.

Thanksgiving

My Thanksgiving in bullets

• Turkey trot
• Make brussel spout recipe.  What I was in charge of.  Everything tastes good with enough butter and cheese, even brussel sprouts.  
• Thanksgiving dinner with extended fam @ 1:00
• Twister competition.
• Piece of pumpkin pie the size of my face.
• Packer/Bear game.  

What we are doing today in class in bullets

• reviewing exponent rules.

In the comments state some of your Thanksgiving bullets, or give one of the exponent rules.  

Imaginary Friends

Toby and Cece, the names of my two childhood imaginary friends.


Please tell me I am not alone in this.......who else had an imaginary friend?  Fun fact, having them are supposed to be a sign of creativity.





Without further ado: solve this problem and put your answer in the comments.  

(4i)(i) + 5i(3i) + (7i)(i)(3i)(i)

Halloween

The best part about Halloween is the candy, right?  Snickers and Resse's Peanut Butter Cups are my favorites, and are considered an acceptable breakfast for the week following Halloween.

If snickers costs .25 per pound, and RPC cost .40 per pound.  How many pounds of each must I buy to make a 10 pound .30 per pound Halloween mixture?
