Just so i dont forget the exam link i put it on my blog, seeing as it doesnt show up on the class blog.

Today was a work period, i got quite a bit of accelerated math done today, and i liked having a whole block to work on everything we have to.

Today was the remainder of finishing up Geometirc squences and Geometric series. I learned how to use the formula to solve for r, and also how to solve for n. We were given examples that were hypothetically exam questions where you cannot use calculators, and figured out how to do them, even though there were some big fractions to reduce. Honestly, i should proabably brush up on my long division before the exam because i have neglected doing it for quite some time now.

Today we had a lesson on Geometirc sequences. We compared them, at first, to arithmetic sequences which are sequences that we did last year. Then we looked at how they are defined (recursively and explicitly).

Today we had a lesson on probability. We got examples of sample spaces, the first one was with a four sided die and a coin. Also we expanded and learned there are two event types, Simple and compound. To solve these types of questions there are formulas: the addition law "Or:, and the Multiplication law "And".

Today we had a lesson on the standard form of cAWnics. We learned were given both hyperbola formulas, and we were given examples, i got a little lost and im confused.

Our lesson today was on graphing analysis of conics. We learned the equations of an ellipse and a hyperbola, there are two for each. The equations change slightly, and there are two for each because each conic can be flipped the opposite way over the axis. I graphed and followed along, and found that this unit is quite easy, i also understand how to analyze the graphs, good job jenna:)

Today we had a new lesson on Conics (Prononuced Cawnics). There are four types of Conics, Circle, Hyperbola, Ellipse, and Parabola. We learned all of the differences in each, and how to determine which graph willl come out of the conic equation. We played a a bit on graphmatica and on a site Mr Max found, actually leraned a bit today, and am quite proud of myself.
