... and at press time (now) it looks like I'll make Thurs Feb 18th a review day and the UNIT 7 TEST will be on Monday, Feb 22nd. Plenty of time to study, agonize, and be miserable in general... WHAT FUN!
There will be plenty of assignments on the website (some required, some optional). The MORE you do, the BETTER PREPARED you will be! Take the time to do some work and ask some questions.

In the packet 7H number 3A and 3B how do you show your work and work for what? i just drew the graph? what other work do i need to show??
ReplyDeleteon friday house 2 had a house day so i couldnt come to class. was the only hw packet 7H??
ReplyDeletehow do you do problem number 4 in packet 7H how do you graph it? my equations were x is less than or equal to 250.....3x +100 is less than or equal to 850..........bakesale is less than or equal to 200 is that even right??
ReplyDeleteYes... ProbSet 7H is the HW...
ReplyDelete#4... a personal favorite!! It is a bit difficult to decipher... let's try!
The student government association held a fundraising dance to raise money for the
Washington D.C. trip. The Home-School Association donated $100 in cash. Students
were each charged $3 admission.
New Information #1: The students held a bake sale at the dance that, if it sold out, could
generate as much as another $200 profit.
New Information #2: A maximum of 250 students were allowed to attend.
Sketch a graph that shows ALL of the possibilities for money raised.
I like x<= 250, so that's one equation
You know that you are making at least 3x + 100 based on the attendance, so
y>= 3x + 100, right?
Here's the tricky part... you know that you could make as much as $200 more (but not more than that) so...
y<= 3x + 300, (think about it)...
OK, that WAS a dirty rotten problem, but it DOES MAKE YOU THINK (and it also makes you miserable... a bonus for me!)
Try graphing the three inequalities above and see if it makes sense to you.
