Per 4 Algebra 1 Assignments

1) Read the two articles about the discovery of the last two prime numbers, then answer the questions on the google form (links provided below but I also copied the articles into docs just in case you cannot get to the sites.)
2) Read the other article about how we use prime numbers in the real world with cryptocurrencies.
3) Explore some of the links to other mathematics articles (if you can access them.)
4) NGPF.org 
---
No final
Plan on doing a quick presentation of your likes on NGPF.org next week
Thank you for being so awesome for all of the subs while I have been sick

1) Complete the chapter 11 review from the Savvas Realize website (instructions on how to log into the book below - several of your classmates have completed, ask sub to find someone to help you.)
2) Complete the Year-end: Functions and graphs study guide - I will view them through GC and you do not need to share with me
3) NGFP site - continue to explore

1) You may use the study guide slide deck and your notes to complete the two-page "review."  Sub should pass out the two pages.  One is a bank of answers to use when filling out the second page.  Please work on your own and turn in both pages, stapled.

2) Back to NGPF.org.  Fingers crossed I see you on Friday and you all can share what part of the site you like the most and why!

Thank you for your cooperation while I am out!

1) The NGPF slide deck - this is your opportunity to share what you liked about a resource/part of the site and why.  You do not need to make a slick presentation of what you learned from the site.  I'm trying to see the site through a 7th grader's lens and see what appeals to you so that I can begin to incorporate it next year.  This is a fun activity and I was looking forward to doing it with you in real-time, but it turns out it is also good for my current situation.  
2) I know we haven't talked about a final, but...I would like to end with a summary of function types and their graphs.  We have learned about the following functions: linear, quadratic, inequality (linear and quadratic), exponential, radical, and rational.  You know the parent function for the 5 equations, and how "a", "h" and "k", affect the shape of the graph.  Use the slide deck as a template to make yourself a study guide with the parent function of each type and some screenshot examples from Desmos.

Hello again!
I heard you were fabulous in the library yesterday - Thank You All!!
So I'm out all week - which means we will pivot from our plan of testing on Chapter 11 this week.  I would like you all to investigate an area in NGPF.org and be prepared to present something interesting that you learned. You may work in pairs/groups when you present - so email each other to collaborate on an area within NGPF as I do not want to encourage *any* talking during class.  I am most interested in what you find interesting and what you would like to see taught in a class.  Thank you and I hope I'm back ASAP!

1) Complete and review results from Google Form with questions from 1st semester 7th grade
2) Complete Surface Area and Volume calculations on yellow worksheet (see example attached.)

*this time it WILL BE GRADED!

*make sure you order the terms in descending exponent and look for a common factor in ALL terms before you start

*We did in class and you may already have a smart score of 80 or above.  You do not *have* to do extra practice, but a few problems is always a good idea! :)

You will receive homework credit for completing and reviewing the practice quiz.  Your quiz score for this PRACTICE quiz will not be recorded.

*HPK we did in class and you may already have a smart score of 80 or above.  You do not *have* to do extra practice, but a few problems is always a good idea! :)

We will have an Escape Room Activity on Wednesday and MathXL test on Friday (work portion TBD.)  Complete at least 50% of your study plan so you will be ready for the test!

DESCRIPTION

Hello Class!

The AMC 8 Contest (a national math contest that sees how well your mathematical fluency and logical skills are) is scheduled for Friday, January 21. 

**All students enrolled in Algebra will be participating in this contest DURING CLASS.


**If you wish to practice for the contest, please use the attached link to peruse through old contests.  Good luck mathletes!

1. One presentation (shared with me on Friday during class)
2. Slide 1 = the word problem
3. Slide 2 = the solution:  A. Two variables defined, B. Two equations that model the problem, C. Final answer (you do not need to show work)

1. SHOW all work to solve and check using a) graph, b) substitution and c) elimination
2. Practice problems 12, 24 and 26 in section 6.4 (see class notes)

Problems 15-26 on page 382:
1) copy of book page (in case) is at the end of the class notes attached (page 8 of the pdf)
2) for 15-20 problems, solve showing all work and USE ORIGINAL equations at all steps
3) for 21-26 identify one, none or infinite solutions - you do not need to solve in the case of only one solution

Problems 11-22 on page 375:
1) copy of book page (in case) is at the end of the class notes attached (page 4 of the pdf)
2) for ODD problems, first solve by substitution and then graph and check your result
3) for EVEN problems, first sketch a graph and then solve by substitution

*Regarding showing work:  While I may not check your homework, you should be solving all equations and inequalities in your notebook and graphing the solution and doing checks just like we did in class.

1) Copy the table with definitions for Interval Notation into your notebook
2) Complete problems 1-10 in your notebook
3) Memorize for life!  (You will see this again in Calculus! :)
) is less 
( is greater
] is less than or equal 
[ is greater than or equal

*Regarding showing work:  While I may not check your homework, you should be solving all inequalities in your notebook and graphing the solution and doing the "zero check" just like we did in class. 

hint: If you need help on any of the MathXL questions, click "See an Example"

If for some reason you did this before the start of the school year, you need to DO AGAIN or it will show up as missing when I run the IXL report.

Review homework problems

Use the Study Plan in MathXL

Pearson Algebra 1 textbook (you can use Clever to get the book online if you don't have the book in front of you! :)
Show all work in your notebook
and check answers in back of book for odd problems

Must show work in notebook for credit.
Work must show inverse operation for EACH operation, and simplify.
Box answers.
See class notes for examples.

Must be complete in order to take the electronic test on WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 1.

I have reviewed ALL problems.  Many of you have completed this step.  If you have a "nice" or "yep" then you can move on.  If you do not, please revise according to my comments. If you do not understand, then email Mrs. Barton.

Please read and follow the tutorial instructions.  You will need to enter the COURSE ID twice!
