ALL E-MAILS NEED TO BE SENT TO glenn.meeden@cobbk12.org


The Unit 2 EOY will be given in class on Tues, May 4th. Topics include the following -

Unit 2 – Algebra Investigations

Polynomials (cannot have negative or variable exponents)
*Classify polynomials according to the number of terms
-Monomial (one term)
-Binomial (two terms)
-Trinomial (three terms)

*Standard form (exponents of the variables decrease from left to right)
*Leading coefficient (# in front when the polynomial is in standard form)
*Degree (exponent on variable…look at the term with the greatest degree if polynomial has more than one term)

Add, subtract, multiply, and divide polynomials
*Like Terms (have the same variable and same exponent)
*Find the perimeter of a figure with polynomials for sides
*Find the area of a rectangle given the length and width ( )
*If dividing by a monomial (just divide each term in the numerator by the term in the
denominator…make separate fractions and simplify)
*If dividing by a binomial (use either long division or synthetic division)


Prime Factorization
Factoring
1) GCF
2) Grouping
3) Trinomials with a leading coefficient of one ( ) – use
diamond method
4) Trinomials without a leading coefficient of one ( ) – use
diamond method along with grouping
5) Difference of squares
6) Perfect square trinomials
Solving polynomial equations by factoring

*Zero-Product Property (If )
1) Make one side of the equation equal to zero, if necessary.
2) Make the other side of the equation in factored form, if necessary.
3) Set each factor equal to zero and solve for the variable.

Finding excluded values (set the denominator equal to zero and solve for the variable)

Simplifying rational expressions

Multiplying and dividing rational expressions

Adding and subtracting rational expressions

Simplifying complex fractions

Solving rational equations

Simplifying and multiplying radical expressions

Dividing radical expressions

Solving radical equations

In an effort to help the grades of Math 1 students, as well as preparation for the County Math 1 End of Course examination, we are doing some End of Year Exams starting the beginning of next week during their class time. These tests will be ALL multiple choice exams (just like the format of the County EOC exam) with somewhere between 20 - 25 questions per exam. The first exam is next Monday, May 3rd over Unit 1. These topics include -

Unit 1 – Function Families


Functions
Function notation
Domain (input or x) and range (output or y)
Independent and dependent variables
Parent graphs
1) linear
2) quadratic
3) cubic
4) absolute-value
5) square root
6) rational or inverse
Interval notation
Intervals of increase and decrease
Discrete vs. continuous variables
Maximum and minimum points
End behavior
X-intercepts and Y-intercepts
Zeros
Average rate of change (constant vs. variable)
Evaluate functions for a given value of x
Find the value of x given the value of the function
Graph functions (compare to the parent graph)
Statement
Equivalent Statements
Hypothesis
Conclusion
Conditional Statement
Converse
Inverse
Contrapositive
Truth tables
Sequences (closed and recursive)
Term
Finite vs. Infinite
Find the next few terms in the pattern
Write the first few terms if given
Write a rule for the nth term if given the first few terms
Find the domain and range of a sequence
Graph sequences

week of April 26th

ALL E-MAILS NEED TO BE SENT TO glenn.meeden@cobbk12.org

For this week-

CALCULUS - we are continuing on the methods of integration. They have their first test on integrals on Tues, April 27th.....integrals will continue through the remaining weeks of the semester. Standards include #27 - #30 applications of the integral, fundamental theorem of Calculus, average value of a function, etc.

ALG 3 Y - we are heavily into trig topics right now and their second test on trig material is on Thur, April 29th. This test will include law of cosines, law of sines, solving trig equations.....Standards include #32 - #38 and include solving any level of triangle, applications of triangles, trig ratios, etc.

MATH 1 - our last quiz on Math 1 will be on Tues, April 27th and it is over solving rational equations, quadratic equations, and radical equations. We will then begin to review for the EOC as well as review exams which will take place next week.....more details coming soon on this!

FRIDAY, April 30th is Awards Day/Yearbook Day/Spring Fling here at Lassiter....not much goign on with classes that day....FYI....

Here's what is going on.....

CALCULUS - we are working on the basics of integration...definite and indefinite integrals, applications of them, initial value problems.....first test on this is not until Tues, April 27th.


ALG 3 Y - they have their first trig test on Wed, 4/21 and a quiz over the unit circle on Fri, April 23rd. We will be moving on to more trig material including solving any type of triangle and law of sines and law of cosines.

MATH 1 - they have a test on Tues, April 20th over the graphs of the mian functions that we have been talking about....quadratic, square root, cubic, absolute value, rational functions. Then we have some misc. topics to finish out the remainder of the month with.

Welcome back from Spring Break.....here's where we are -

CALCULUS - we're just starting now on integrals, which will take us the rest of the way for the semester.

ALG 3 - we are starting TRIG, which will be for the next four weeks or so. They need to stay on top of Trig and ask for help, which I am sure they all need from time to time, given the difficulty of trig. Unit circle quiz on Fri, 4/23 and first trig test on Wed, 4/21.


MATH 1 - finishing up various sections of Unit 5....they will have a quiz on graphing on Thur, 4/15 and their next exam will be on Tues, 4/20.
