The Extra Practice Worksheet - some notes

On the side that covers lessons 2.2 and 2.3 (see the top right of the worksheet)
Problem 2: Make sure  you can do parts b and c, don't worry so much about parts a and d.
Problem 3: You don't need to find the target, just the domain and range.
Problem 5: You will need to use your calculator for parts of this.
Problem 7: This one can be confusing if you don't use enough parentheses.
Problem 8: The parentheses in parts c and d indicate which composition to do first.  Try it.

On the side that covers lesson 2.4
Problem 3: You can skip this one.
Problem 8: Remember that an inverse function undoes the original function.  If you do one right after the other then you get back to where you started (ex. dollars to Euros to dollars).  Also remember that if you know that the input of the inverse is 10 then you know the output of the original function is 10 (and vice versa).

The test for A-Block has moved to Tuesday, September 25th.  The test for F-Block has moved to Friday, September 28th.

Another pdf of a few more sections

The ability to access the books online is almost here. Just to make sure you can access the pages you need, here is another pdf to download.

PDF of a couple sections of the book...

Given that I am not quite sure when the online books will be ready, I am making a few sections available here. This will provide access to the explanations and problems for the Explicit/Recursive formula homework and the Constant Difference/Slope homework.

Starting in the new book...

We spent some time reviewing functions but now we will really get into it.  My two sections (A and F) meet on different days so I am listing the assignments with the pertinent dates for each section.

Note the change of dates for A-Block due to Picture Day on 9/12.

A-Block	F-Block	Assignments
9/06	9/10	Tables & Graphs  HW make rules to generate more table values
9/10	9/12	Explicit and Recursive  HW p.242-244/1-8, 10-12
9/11	9/13	Quick Quiz; Constant Difference & Slope CW p.252-5/1-8, HW p.256-7/9-17
9/13	9/14	Composition  CW p.283-286/1-7,  HW p.287-288/10-15, 17, 20 9/17 and 9/18 Rosh Hashannah (I am out on Tuesday the 18th)
9/18	9/19	Function Operations with Modeling  HW finish worksheet
9/19	9/20	Quick Quiz; Inverses  CW p.295-296/1-7  HW p.297-298/8, 10, 14, 15, 20
9/20	9/21	Review
9/24	9/24	Big Quiz of Function Unit

The quick quizzes are designed to let both you and me how you are doing with the material so far.  If you don't do well, get help right away!  I want you to understand everything.  I will provide paper copies until the online version of the book is ready.

Getting Started

Our first two days were spent looking at patterns and the expressions we can use to count aspects of them.  It was a different way of integrating a diagram and an algebraic expression than you may have seen before.  Hopefully it also woke up your math brain a bit.

The next two days will be spent working on an Algebra 1 Review packet.  The packet is based on the Math 1 book so you will get a taste for the way questions are asked in the new books.  Do problems 1 - 11 the first day, 12 - 23 on the second day.
