FEBRUARY BREAK EXPLORATIONS!!! (the number of exclamation points are proportionate to my level of excitement)
As I mentioned
in class, this assignment is about as far away from ‘busy work’ as one can get.
The lessons I ask you to read over, to study, to problem solve with and
potentially research some more, are the content we would have covered if not
for snow days, district mandated testing and all the other interruptions that
make school tough to cope with. And if you need more motivation, here it is:
There is lots of
good, meaty material here to sink your teeth into and find interesting
I have every
expectation that you will not only poke around in the content, but have it
resolved by the time we return from break
Our last
assessments of the 3rd term will be drawn from the content you
explore
So here goes:
Lesson 2-6 Special Functions
We play with
functions all year in math class. We are insanely familiar with what functions
are in general and so this little lesson puts formal names to certain functions
(almost all of which you know) and maybe suggests some names and features that
you aren’t totally friendly with. You should be able to answer the following
types of questions after studying this lesson:
Page 99 #14 – 26
Page 100 # 28 – 33 and #41- 45
NOTE! I am not
suggesting you must solve all these problems (although I would definitely
encourage it) but rather that you solve enough to be able to say “o.k. I am
comfortable solving this sort of problem if asked to.”
Lesson 8-5 Classes of Functions
Talk about déjÃ
vu! This lesson is sort of like getting slapped by 2-6 again expect there is a
heavier focus on recognizing graphs and also a few new functions are thrown
into the pot. Why spend the effort on learning the names and behaviors of all
these functions? Because they are the models for tons of real-world
relationships that we are interested in and form much of the basis for the
regular patterns we explore in Algebra. You should be able to answer the
following types of questions after studying this lesson:
Page 476 # 1 – 5 and 10 – 23
Page 477 # 24 – 31 and 35
Lesson 8-6 Solving Rational Equations and
Inequalities
There is a lot
of good news here. 1. We know these relationships from having graphed them. 2.
We have the idea of a least common denominator from our middle school years. 3.
You folks are already cautious about the denominator of a rational expression
and therefore know all about excluded values of the domain.
Nice. Seems like
you can handle all the details about how to sort out these kinds of problems. You
should be able to answer the following types of questions after studying this
lesson:
Page 484 # 10 – 30
So what’s left?
Well, I’ve never had a chance to assess you on lessons 7-7 Solving Radical
Equations and Inequalities or 8-3 Graphing Rational Functions so assume that
these are fair game when we return.
Should you have questions, shoot me an email at nkhodjat@gmail.com over the next few days and we'll figure things out together.
