this week we learned how to convert a metric to an imperial or vice versa.

The metric system is an internationally agreed decimal system of measurement. the metic is all about kilo, hecta, unit, deca, deci, centi, and mili.

this is how to convert within the metric:

1 millimeter = 0.001 meter
1 centimeter = 0.01 meter
1 decimeter = 0.1 meter
1 kilometer = 1000 meters

the imperial is only used by U.S and Canada and compromises of inches, feet, yards, and miles.

this is how to convert within the imperial:

1 foot [ft] 12 in
1 yard [yd] 3 ft
1 mile 1760 yd

this is how to convert metric to imperial:

Metric US or Imperial
1 millimetre [mm] arrow 0.03937 in
1 centimetre [cm] 10 mm arrow 0.3937 in
1 metre [m] 100 cm arrow 1.0936 yd
1 kilometre [km] 1000 m arrow 0.6214 mile

 

and this is what I learned this week 🙂

This week we learned about rational exponent and how to solve them.

rational exponents are numbers with fraction powers which you could turn them into radical form by having following the rule of “flower power”. Flower power means that the bottom is always the root and the top is always the power and to term them into power form you have to do likewise from radical form.

this is how to solve a rational exponent.

So the answer of 16 to the power of 3/4 is 8

February Lab Reflection

I choose to reflect on toad in the hole because it was our first lab of the year and our first group activity. I enjoy the lab because I got to meet new people in our group and that we talk about what is good and bad about being in Foods and Nutrition 10,but it was all good comments though :). I enjoyed the lab because we made our toad in the hole like it was suppose to and tasted good with bread and tea!! our product did look and taste what it was supposed to, but the egg was a little salty because we added a little salt to it and the bread was a little damp because we didn’t cook the bread thoroughly. Our group worked well together for our first lab ever. one of our group mate was a little miss-behaving but it was ok until he saw that we made our food looked good and all.  there wasn’t much issue because everybody was expecting our food for the first time and we were a little hungry to be honest. and that is all I’m going to write.

Before:

after: Image result for toad in a hole

  1. Why did you choose to reflect on this lab?
  2. Did you enjoy the lab? Why or why not?
  3. Did your product turn out the way you had hoped? If yes, what helped? If no, why did it not?
  4. Did you group work well together during the lab? Why or why not? (i.e. were there any issues that came up/how did you solve them?)
  5. If you were to do this lab again, what might you do differently? Why?
