SP#6: Unit K Concept 10- Writing with repeating as a rational number


 To write a repeated decimal as a rational number the geometric series can be used. This number is infinite. You need to find a sub 1  and r.

Look for things like matching the decimal with its fraction. You must leave it as a fraction and not as a decimal.

Unit K: Concept 4- Fibonacci Haiku

Snow
Falls
Like Rain
Wets my clothes
Fills my face with joy
 Joy fills my belly like food always does

SP#5: Unit J Concept 6-Partial decomposing with repeated fractions

Separate each factor into a a separate fraction. For the repeated factor, you must count up the powers and include the factor as many times as the exponent. Factors will be repeated.

You must take in count that you have to foil the factors before you distribute the letters.

SP#4: Unit J Concept 5- Partial decomposition with distinct factors




In part one you will need to compose the three equations


Part 2 you will need to decompose the answer you got for the first part. A, B , and C should be part of the system. Separate the equation into a,b and c. Get the common denominator. Remember to foil before you distribute the letters. Combine like terms and set them equal to the corresponding term

For the third part you will need to put in in matrix form, don't worry you wont need to solve the matrix. Plug it in into your calculator and use the reff button. You should get the numbers you started with.

Plug in what you got on the solved matrix back to the three equations you started with. You should have the same equations.

SV# 5: Unit J Concept 3-4 - Matrices

This video will deal how to work with matrices. You will need to find the three variables or numbers that make x,y and z. You will also be taught how to use rref in your calculator as a way to  check if your solution is correct.

Look out for small mistakes that you might make, like not distributing the negative. Make sure to do in pencil in case you make a mistake.

SV#4: Unit I Concept 2- Graphing logarithmic functions


  
Unit I concept 2 is about how to graph an equation with a log. You need to find all the needed parts like the asymptote, x and y intercepts, the domain, and the range. You will also need to graph the graph and the extra point you have to find.

Look out for the asymptote as is should be the same as your h. Be careful when you plug in your logs into the calculator and don't forget to use the change of base formula is needed

SP#3:UNIT I CONCEPT 1-indentifying parts of a expoenetial equation







you will be identifying key parts of an exponential function. You will need to find the x-intercept, y-intercept, asymptotes,domain, range. You need to have four points minimum in the graph. You nedd to label your a,b,h, and k.

Remember that your k is your asymptote. Also if you have a negative natural that means there wont be a x or y intercept. You graph needs to be below or above the ASYMPTOTE. One graph should be created.

SV#3: UNIT H CONCEPT 7-Find logs given approximation

Today  go on a treasure hunt. You will be given a number of clues that you can use to find treasure. You will take numbers in your clues and either multiply or divide them to equate your solution. You will need to expand your clues using the properties of logs.. You will then substitute in the letters given.

Pay close attention to two clue that aren't shown with the rest of the clues. Keep in mind that all the clues may go into the number.

SV#2: Unit G Concepts 1-7 - Finding all parts and graphing a rational function



  
The graph of a rational function can vary greatly based on its pieces, namely its asymptotes, intercepts, and holes. Look for the horizontal, horizontal and slant asymptotes. Find the holes and the resulting domain.

X an y intercepts are important part. Pay close attention to the degrees and the factoring.

SP# 2 :UNIT ECONCEPT 7-Graphing a polynomial and identifying all key parts

You are going to evaluate of factorable polyomials you will describe every aspect of them. How will they behave at the extremes, how they behave in the middle, where their highest and lowest points are, where their intercepts are, and under what intervals they are increasing or decreasing.

You must pay careful attetion to a zero's multiplicity ao you know how to act around the x-axis.

SP #1: Unit E Concept 1-Graphing a quadratic and identifying all key parts




This problem deals with identifying the x-intercepts, y-intercepts, vertex(max/min), axis of quadratics and graphing them. Sketch the graph using the shifts of the parent function.
f(x)=6x^2+12x+12

Pay close attention to the x-intercepts of this problem. It might contain imaginary numbers. If imaginary numbers appear remember that those points cant be put on the graph because they are imaginary.
