Test on Chapter 11. To help you study, I have posted tons of review answers for Chapter 11.

 

F 4/11/03

HW due: §12.2 #1, 2, 4, 5, 12. This section is straightforward if you read p.565 on your own and work through the sample problems (with solutions) that are printed on p.566.

In class: Small-group work on §12.1 #1a, 2a, 3, 4a, 6, 7d, 9. You may attempt these at home if you wish, but there should be time to do them during class.

 

M 4/14/03

HW due: §12.3 #2, 3, 4, 7, 12.

 

T 4/15/03

HW due: §12.4 #1, 5, 9, 10, 12, 13, 19.

In class: Construction of a 1:15 billion scale model of our solar system, using an orange for the sun and green Play-Doh for the planets. Each step equals more than 6 million miles. With an orange at the sundial representing the sun, Pluto is a tiny speck located at the far side of Satterlee-Henderson Field or at the Cactus Cantina. The nearest star outside our solar system would be more than 1600 miles away—Albuquerque, New Mexico. The moon’s orbit, which is the farthest that manned space travel has reached, has a radius of 1 inch on this scale.

 

W 4/16/03

HW due: §12.5 #1, 3, 5, 9, 12, 13.
 

Th 4/17/03

HW due: §12.6 #1, 2, 5, 8, 12.

After you have worked the problems, check the answer key. If you were stuck on any of the last four problems, also look at the solution key to #17 and 20-22. Honor system! Don’t follow these links until you have made a solid effort on the problems. The only way you can prepare well for your test is to challenge yourself.

 

M 4/21/03

Quiz on Chapter 12 (50 points). There will be time before the quiz starts to get questions answered. Make sure you are up to date on HW and have worked all the review problems from last week.

 

T 4/22/03

Second Quiz on Chapter 12 (50 points). Today the formulas will not be provided to you. Remember that there is probability of 100% that there will be a problem using Hero's Formula and a problem using Brahmagupta's Formula. After the quiz, we will move on to new material.

 

W 4/23/03

HW due: §13.1 #4, 7, 11 (explain your answer), 15, 16, 20. Because these are problems are all review from Algebra I or from the earlier part of the year, you should (hopefully) find them fairly straightforward.

 

Th 4/24/03

HW due: §13.2 #1, 2, 4, 8, 9, 13-16 all.

 

F 4/25/03

M 4/28/03

No school (FBK Day).

 

T 4/29/03

HW due: Read §13.4; write §13.3 #1-5 all, 7, 12. If you have a graphing calculator, also read in your manual to learn how to graph linear inequalities quickly, using cross-hatching.

 

W 4/30/03

HW due: §13.4 #1, 2, 3, 5ac, 6.
