Penny Lab Conclusion

The analysis of our results were that water on the penny by itself, is more cohesive than water on a penny that is submersed into a soapy liquid solution. Our hypothesis was negated because our results showed that even if we carefully and equally distribute the water on the penny, we still have averages close to other groups.  To expand our research we would try using another substance than merely water and soapy liquid.

Week 2 – Converting Entire Radicals into Mixed

During the second week of Foundations of Mathematics and Pre-Calculus 10, I learned how to convert a entire radical into a mixed, with a index of 2.  You can convert a entire radical into a mixed by finding the highest perfect square and factoring it out. This equals to the coefficient. Then you multiply the coefficient by the radical whatever number is left. Note: always simplify, if you convert a entire radical into a mixed, and if the radicand can be factored by a perfect square still, simplify it by taking it out the radicand and multiply by the coefficient again.
