Test Review for Linear Systems of Equations

At the start of class our class did mental math. Today's mental math was number 14. We, as a class, were then explained the rules, regulations and privileges for the test on Tuesday, March 3rd. The rules, regulations and privileges for the test are as follows:

• We will have the privilege to use Graphmatica but NOT the Internet.
• The test will start at the beginning of class and will end exactly at 12:10, NO LATER.
• If you are found using anything else on the laptops besides Graphmatica(ex. Internet, Blog, etc..) you will have an automatic fail and a possible expulsion from the course.
• You will be allowed to bring an 8x11 piece of paper with whatever you want on it.
• The classroom rules still apply as they would any other day.
• There will be no cheating off of other students.
• There will be NO mp3, iPOD, mp4 or other portable audio/visual information devices allowed at the test.
• You may also use your graphing/scientific calculator if you wish.

Those are the rules, regulations and privileges for the test on Tuesday, March 3rd.

For the rest of the class, we were shown and explained the material for the test which is as follows:

Linear Systems Word Problems

Hello there, apparently today is my day to scribe, so I guess I'm going to tell you where to find the directions for the word problems unit.

1. Go to the start menu and click on my computer.
2. Click on the J: drive and go to the coursework folder.
3. Then click on the math folder and find our 0809 2nd semester 11 applied folder.
4. In this folder there should be a separate folder called word problems, click on it.

Inside of this folder there is directions for objectives 11-15.

To find objective 11, I would look at the examples in the Adobe folder called 'systems word problems 3', and the 'systems word problems intro' folder.

To find objective 12, I would most likely look in the folder called 'word problems motion and distance mixture.'

To find objective 13, I'd look in the folder called 'age systems word problems.'

For objective 14, I think i'd look in the 'word problems' coin ages folder.

And lastly, for objective 15, I would suggest you look in any of the folders with the word mixture in them, because that's what i'm doing.

I know these aren't the greatest directions as to what exactly your supposed to do, but everybody learns different, so maybe the best way is to find your own way to learn about word problems if these directions don't work for you. Hope this made your day better, Thanks for reading!!

Linear Systems

Today we learned the Types of Linear Systems. We learned the types, their appearences and how many solutions there are to each one. As of today, Monday is the day the joke sheets (None word problems) are going to be due. Mr. Maksymchuck has also said there will be a test coming in the near future.

Systems Of Linear Equations

Well hi!

Today in class Mr.Maksymchuk explained a little more about the blog and is pleased by what he is seeing so far with our distributions to our class blog.

We then learned about the Systems of Linear Equations.

Here is a recording of what went on during class.
