Accelerated Mathematics 1-Period 1 Assignments

I attached a pdf (blank copy) of the Cayley table, in case you need it. No need to print it. You can use the one that you started in class.

Please follow the instructions on the first page.

Note #1: ALL ROTATIONS are about the origin, unless otherwise specified
Note #2: For question #7, the y-intercept b of the line is the same "b" that you found in part 6.

Note: for exercise #7 page 120 use the following reasoning:

Call l the line that contains the driveway. You need to find a line n through M such that the image of C under the reflection over n is on the line l.   


Note, you just need to draw a sketch of the situation. Finding the equation of the line is not necessary.


We will go over this exercise in class on Thursday, in case you find difficulties.

Note: for # 17-22 :
A) draw a picture
B) Write an equation
C) Solve for x

(See also example #2 p. 650)

For #4 in the practice workbook, interpret the question in the following way: What are the measures of the angles that Keisha can draw? For example, she can surely draw a straight angle (180 degrees). What other angles can she draw? (Note: you cannot write all measures because they turn up to be infinitely many, but you can describe all of them in words).

Please upload a picture of your warmup here.

IMPORTANT: Before you work on part (B) of the homework, please review how to construct the angle bisector in the Geometric Construction website (link shared in the last assignment).

Hello everyone,

I just removed two exercises about constructing the bisector of an angle, because we did not go over it in class. (If you already turned in the work with those exercises (good job!), know that I will assign those exercises next time, and you won't have to redo them)

MrG

Upload a picture of your warm up here.

Sorry, I forgot to put this assignment on Google classroom yesterday, even if it was on GoFormative already. So I extended the due time to 11.55pm tomorrow (so you have the whole afternoon to work on it)

Please upload the warmup here.

For exercise #1: The "strange" brackets around x are a symbol to denote the FLOOR function (or GREATEST INTEGER function). The function works in the following way: the floor function of x is the biggest integer smaller than or equal to x. For example the floor function of x=6.4 is 6 (because 6 is the biggest integer, smaller than 6.4). The floor function of x=5 is 5 itself. However the floor function of x= - 5.2 is -6 (because the integer must be less than or equal to x).

Answer both questions on one side of one sheet of paper, then take a picture (or scan the paper) and upload it here.

Sorry, I had written the wrong section. The pages are 70 and 71 (as stated), but I just corrected the sections. Now it's correct.

We will go over the answers in class on Thursday after the quiz. The due time is Thursday at 3.30pm

For #3 F read" 7g of fat" not "salt". (I fixed it now).

I linked a video that explains how to use Desmos to find the regression line and to calculate predictions.

For # 15-21 odd give two ordered pairs that are solutions (if there are solutions) and two that are not, instead of describing the solutions. (If you have already followed the direction from the book and submitted the work before reading this added instruction, you do not need to resubmit.)

THIS IS A "TAKE HOME" QUIZ. Please follow the instructions at the top of the quiz. The due date is TODAY at 11.30pm.

Note: you do not need to copy the questions when you answer them. Just make sure that you clearly indicate what exercise you are solving.

For questions 9 and 10, compare only SLOPES and Y-INTERCEPTS. What I want you to do is to decide which function has the higher slope (and then which has the higher y-intercept) and what does it mean in context.

HERE IS AN EXAMPLE:
Suppose x is the number of movies and f(x) and g(x) are the cost (in dollars) of renting x movies in store A and B respectively. Both stores charge an initial fee and then a fee per movie rented. Suppose that f(x)=4x+2 and g(x)=2x+3. Then I would like you to write something like:
"The slope of store A (that is 4) is greater than the slope of store B (that is 2). Therefore store A charges more money per movie rented than store B. The y-intercept in store A (that is 2) is smaller that the y-intercept in store B (that is 3). Therefore store A charges a smaller initial fee than store B."

Please submit a picture of the exercises.

When you submit an answer that needs work you might see a blue disk. That means that I will need to score it manually. If you write an answer and you see a red disk, then either the answer is wrong, or you wrote it in a way that does not match my answer key. If this is the case, double check your answer, and if you think that you answered correctly, leave the answer red. I'll see your work anyway.

Note: This is an assignment and you will receive full credit for attempting each exercise (completion). The score that you see on GoFormative is for you to have an immediate feedback.

(There is no need to submit your notes from the video) You need to submit only the exercises on page 179.

NOTE: There are two philosophies of thought about x- and y- intercepts:
- according to one, the x- and y- intercepts are numbers, namely the x- and the y-coordinates of the points of intersection (this is the definition in our book);
- according to the other, the intercepts are the actual points of intersection (I tend to agree with this one).

However, I will accept your answers whichever of these two points of view you choose to agree with. For example if the point of intersection of a line with the y-axis is (0,5), you can say that the y-intercept is y=5 or that it is the point (0,5).

You do not need to print the worksheet if you don't want to. Just solve the exercises in your paper and then submit a picture as usual.

For question 3C: Change into " Use the graph to find how much time it takes the object to reach the ground and explain your reasoning."

For question 4D: Change the condition into:
E(3)=5
The domain of E(x) is [– 5,5]
The range of E(x) is [– 1,6]

Please record all your answers in the form attached

Submit a picture of your quiz when done (before the time is up)

Try to solve the exercises on page 65. On Monday let me know if you found difficulties. The due date is Monday at 11.59pm.

NOTE #1: Please show some work. Even if you ARE allowed to write on the practice workbook, you might not have enough space to show work, so you might want to use your own paper. You do not need to copy the text of the exercises in your own paper.
NOTE #2: Remember to introduce the variables that you are using if the exercise is a word-problem and the variables have not been already introduced in the exercise. (Note that for page 12, you need to introduce variables only in exercise #15)
NOTE #3: This assignment is due Thursday by 11.59 pm. If you have questions about it, you can also use Thursday's Office Hours and still be on time to turn in the work.

Try your best in solving the exercises, then take a picture and submit it in a google doc, like last time. If you have trouble inserting the picture in a google doc, you can also send the picture directly or scan the paper and send it as pdf.

As usual, submit a picture of your work in a google doc, or (if that does not work), submit the picture itself or scan the paper in a pdf file.

When finished, please take a picture of your work, open a google doc, paste the picture in the google doc and submit. Don't forget to put your full name and period at the top of the paper before you take the picture.

Please fill in this form (by Friday) to confirm that you and your parents/guardians read the syllabus for this class.

Please try your best to answer the following (ungraded) question. Please don't just say yes or no. Rather, briefly explain the reason behind your answer.
