HW #70 and #71

First off many apologies for the delay in posting the homework! Upon our return from February holiday the school's internet was not allowing me on blogger. Regardless, let's get to it!

#70 Monday night's hw (803 Tues night) - worksheet on conversion (8M1)

#71 Tuesday night's hw (803 Weds night) - The following question.
A landscaper is ordering grass seed for a new city park. The total area of the park is 250 acres. In order to grow a thick lawn, 3 pounds of grass seed must be planted for every 1,000 square feet.

Part A. One acre is equal to 43,650 square feet. How many pounds of grass seed will be needed to cover the entire area of the park?

Part B. The grass seed supplier gives the city discounts for orders over 1 ton. The table below shows the prices for different amounts of Kentucky bluegrass seeds.

Tons of Seed Price ($) per Ton
0.5-1 6,000
2-5 5,250
6-10 4,750
11-20 3,500
21 and over 3,000

How much will the grass cost for the new park?

After-School Test Preparation

Saturday and Weds/Friday Test Prep begins again this week! In the program we will be reviewing your questions on the recent multiple choice sections done inside and outside of class. We will also be completing some practice exams on-line. I suggest anyone who like to attend and has not returned thier permission slip come on Weds and Friday afternoons since Saturday's class is full.

Potential for Extra Credit!

On the website www.homeroom.com I have uploaded multiple choice questions from a NY State Standard exam under your class (801, 802, or 803). To log in use your OASIS number as your username and your last name as your password. After logging in you should be taken to your class's homepage. Complete the February Break Math Exam.

For extra credit this must be complete (all questions answered) by Monday February 26th. Also your extra credit points will be derived from your score so take your time answering questions! You are free to use your notes but do not use a calculator!

February Break.... Math Work : )

Since the Math State exam is just around the corner I have distributed three (3) handouts to complete over the February break. Two sets of worksheets are on transformations and the third a multiple choice "refresher" which includes various standards. Within this packet I have also given you a complete list of words to include on your index cards. Please also complete the remainder of the handout on transformations distributed Thursday (you only had to complete 1st page for Friday's class, over break complete the rest).

All packets and the transformation hw from Thursday are due the day we return from break, Monday February 26th. A complete list of index cards are due March 1st - no if, ands or buts! No cards on the 1st no credit!

Have a great break! : )

Thurs. night HW #69

All classes
Please complete 1st page on handout distributed today. The handout explores rotation.

Homework #68

Review Basic Skills On-line!

A number of you have spoken to me about reviewing your basic skills like integer rules. Click on the link below and scroll down to Integers then click on "Excercises"

From the Scout Report:
Math Review: Basic Mathematics [ppt, pdf]
http://www.accd.edu/sac/slac/ppointshows/math_0300/math_0300_review.htm
A number of community colleges across the United States have been actively working on creating helpful online tutorials and educational guides to a variety of subjects. Created by the staff at the Student Learning Assistance Center at San Antonio College, this site offers a set of online presentations and exercises that review topics such as whole numbers, integers, fractions, decimals, and statistical measurement. For each of these topics, users will find a slideshow overview and a set of short exercises designed to make sure that students understand the material. Additionally, visitors can click on the "Mathematics handouts" section to examine worksheets that cover the concepts of beginning algebra, exponents, and other more advanced mathematical subjects.

Weekend Homework

Using your textbook define the following:
transformation
translation
rotation
dilation
reflection
line of symmetry

Use a piece of graph paper folded into fourths to draw a picture of each type of transformation. You'll have a picture of translation, rotation, dilation and reflection.

Work on and add to your index cards. Recent updates should include all types of angle pair relationships - alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, corresponding angles, vertical angles. Also recent vocabulary i.e. transversal, parallel, perpendicular.

Homework #66 plus quiz tomorrow!

Tonight's homework.

Part 1.
Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal forming 8 angles. If m<4 =(x+10) and m<8 = (2x -30) and they are corresponding, what are the measures of both angles. Can you find the measures of all 8 angles knowing m<4 and m<8?
Part 2.
Text book homework
802/3 page 565 26-35 and 801 page 497 35-36

NOTE:
Homework #64 and #65 were the worksheets 10-1 and 11-3 handed out on Monday.
