These top 5 are in no particular order.
Legal Moves with tiles
The First of the top 5 are legal move’s. I chose this one because you have to go by the rules to get the answers for every question no matter the length. This type of math question is just to find the variable by itself and what its value is. The rule is, whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other. As long that there is a way of having the variable by itself you can do the equation.
X and Y graph equations
X and y graphs helped me very much with understanding how charts and how money works. With just one equation you can predict the whole chart to the 1,o00th number. It is fairly simple and works like a charm. So the x value in the equation means how many the number goes up by per section and the plain number is what you add to the number. If you do this correctly you can find any number you want. IF you want to find any number you multiply the x value by the number column and add whatever number comes after in the equation.
Exponent laws:
Exponent laws were a very important thing I learned this year because I struggled with them all year long with getting 63% on the exponents test. But once the test was done I was able to understand the easy topic that I found so hard my whole year. While I too thought it was a complicated equation I soon realized how lazy and fun exponents could be. Exponents is just a repeated multiplication of numbers. You can just add the exponents if the bases are the same, but if the bases are different you have to multiply the bases by each other then add the exponents
Similarity and Scale factor:
Every student in Mrs.Burton’s class did not understand what the 1:4 in the maps meant including me. I loved maps as a kid but I was never able to understand what it really meant. But what I learned was that this is just a way to show what can be drawn or built by using equations and scale factors. It would take a lot of hours and paper to draw a life size version of a house as an architect. The scale factor means that if the number on the left is smaller then the actual is bigger than the picture while if the number of the left is bigger then the real life item will be smaller.
Financial literacy:
When I first learned that we had to do finances I was worried because I didn’t know much about it and it seemed quite complicating. But the most important of the things were surveying and what affects surveys. What I didn’t know is that you can tell a survey is good or bad just by checking the factors that affect survey data. The factors that affect surveys are Cost, bias, language, privacy, ethics, cultural sensitivity and time. These all majorly affect surveys and in order to get a good survey you need to add all of these into it to make it the most effective.
