Homework Wednesday, 10/31

Pre-Algebra: Pg. 127 #11 - 19.  This is optional, but it is required that you understand this content, which we will be working on tomorrow, so you may want to at least look at it tonight.

Algebra: The worksheet we got today will be due later, but it is not required to do as homework tonight.

Homework Tuesday, 10/30

Pre-Algebra: Pg. 123 #12 - 22, 31, 32, 36

Algebra: Pg. 313 #3 - 18, only do the ones divisible by 3

Homework Monday, 10/29

Pre-Algebra: Pg. 123 #8 - 11.  Since there are only 4 problems, you have no reason not to solve them and check your work VERY CAREFULLY.

Algebra: Pg. 307 #49 - 52.  If you've forgotten the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines, you can find that information on pages 306 & 307.

Let's get crazy!

Homework Wednesday, 10/17

BOTH CLASSES: Check your answers in the posts below.  If you have any questions or you think I have made a mistake, please either comment on the blog or send me an email.

Pre-Algebra: Pg. 804 #24 - 31, then 36 - 50 Even.  I have included all of the answers to #24 - 51 if you're interested.

Algebra: Pg. 336 #1, 4 - 6.  Don't forget, it would be a good idea to look over that sheet that you hopefully got from me at the end of class!

Algebra Answers

1a. Abscissa is x - coordinate, Ordinate is y - coordinate
1b. Rise is vertical change, Run is horizontal (or something to that effect)
1c. Slope = rise/run; intercept is where it crosses an axis (the other variable = 0)
1d. x - intercept is the value (number) for x where it crosses the x - axis, y - intercept is the value where it crosses the y - axis.
1e. Horizontal lines have slope = 0, Vertical lines have no slope.

4. m = -3/4

5a. y-intercept at (0,0), your line goes down 3, right 7
5b. y-intercept at (0,10), line goes up 3, right 1
5c. Horizontal line through (0,-3)

6a. y = (2/7)x + 8
6b. y = y = (-5/2)x + 7
6c. y = (-8/5)x + (19/5), also known as y = (-8/5)x + 3.8
6d. x = 4
