This week in Math we learned about developing and applying the Quadratic formula. I have been going in at lunch to help me prepare for the next upcoming test. The group work this week has helped me out but I was still stuck on a few things so I had to ask my parents for help when I got home. At first it was hard for me to tell which number was A,B or C. Now that I have practiced it I feel like I know it now.
I have received this I report for my Math class which is something I have never received before. Having received an I report is very upsetting to me. I put a lot of pressure on myself to do well in school and effort is the most important thing to me. I am really trying but struggling at a course in school is a new thing for me to overcome. I am really upset with myself because I had all the blogs done, I just didn’t post them properly (I didn’t realize they were in draft form). I need to do a better job at double checking to make sure I hand in things properly. Please provide me with feedback on my blog posts and skills check so I can make the improvements and do better on my future blog posts and skills checks. I appreciate your support and encouragement moving forward in math as I really want to do better in this course.
This week I have really focussed on doing practice tests I have made for myself. I hope this will help me become more confident on this unit as well as get a better result on my unit 3 test.
It wouldn’t let me download so I had to put a link in. Please let me know if you can’t see it.
In this question on solving the Quadratic Formula the first step you need to do is find what number is A then what number is B then what number is C. A will always be the first number in the equation. Number B is always be the middle or it has a variable x. Then C is aways the number just before the equal sign. If the number is equal to 0 than C will always be the number before the equal sign.
