Next, read pg. 353 and 354 from your textbook. Define all bolded words (skip abscissa) in your notebook (or on your blog if you want to) from those pages using this website, http://www.amathsdictionaryforkids.com/



Origin- point of intersection in the x and y axis.



x axis- horizontal axis of a graph



y axis - vertical axis of a graph



coordinates- a set of numbers or letters used to show postition on a coordinate plane or graph.



x coordinate- position of point acording to x axis.


y coordinate- position of point acording y axis

Coordinate plane- plane connecting a perpendicular plane

Two Variable equations

Next, read over pages 349 and 350 in your textbook. Then you can try a couple problems and post this on your blog. Do this by writing the equation for y in terms of x (ex. 3x + y = 7, so y = 7 -3x). Try #13-16 on pg. 351.

13. 2x+y=6 y= 6-2x

14. 5x+y=7 y= 7-5x

15. 3x+2y=8 y= 8-3x/2

16. 2x+5y=10 y= 10-2x/5

understanding polonomials better

So at first I really did not get the algebra tiles but I understood the mathematical way. Now though I totally get it. I think I was just looking at it in the wrong wsy. I see what everyone was sying it would have been easier in the begining. I also learned that the beginning term is called the leading term. I wonder why I did not do that? Well I guess better learned now then never. So, that is two new things I learned the sites.

In a week I would spend about $57.00 on gas with the prices right now.

my first car

So, how many of you dream of the first car you will own? Well, in this assignment, let's pretend that you just graduated from college and your super-generous parents are going to buy you WHATEVER car you want! However, you have to pay for gas with hard earned money you will be making in your first job :) In this 15 point assignment due THIS Wednesday October 8, your job will be to figure out the following:

For my first car I would want a yellow lamborghini gaallarodo. I don't know a lot about cars but this one looks really cool! This would cost about 200,000 for my parent to bye me the car. The tank when full holds 9 gallons and the mpg is 17 . That is what my dream car is and a little about it
