If I look at the middle table, my enlargement is a scale factor of 2. To enlarge my image, I multiplied the given information by two.
My reduction was a scale factor of 0.5. I reduced the given information my multiplying by 0.5.
Here are some examples of linear inequalities plotted onto graphs:

These will help you remember what to do first when you are solving your equation.
If you don’t have algebra tiles you can always draw out and solve the equation by drawing the tiles on paper. I did not have tiles so below I visually represented how I solved the linear equation.
This is an example of how I visually solved the equation below. I drew it out using algebra tiles.
To solve the following simple algebraic equation I have get x all by itself. We call that isolating the variable.
If you have the equation: 2x+3=7

French Immersion Teacher – Grade 5/6
I chose to interview Natasha because she works with my mom at her school. Ever since I was little, I have always wanted to become a teacher when I grew up. I love working with children and think that teaching would be the best choice for me. I would like to work at the elementary level and even become a French immersion teacher.
I have learned from this interview that this is a job that requires a lot of responsibility and patience, but is a beautiful career because you get to make connections with your students and are able watch your students grow and become amazing people in the future.
2.It takes a lot of schooling and post secondary education to become a teacher. I spent time being a TOC before I landed a full time position and the first few years of being a teacher is not easy. There is a lot time spent planning, prepping, assessing, conferencing, organizing, collaborating and providing feedback. Some years are harder than others.
(own question) What is your favourite part of the job? I have a few favourite parts. I love working with other teachers. The teachers at my school are great and we collaborate a lot on ideas. I love it when my ex students come back to see me! There’s no better feeling when they come for a visit and to say they enjoyed my class. And obviously my favourite part of the job is having a close connection with my students.
(own question) How many years does it take to become a teacher?
I did the PDP program at SFU after I got my degree. I also went back to university to get my 2 year 5+15 graduate diploma. Some people go to UBC to do their teacher training, others have gone to UVIC.

Define: All around the world, children, adults and families live in poverty. Approximately 1.3 billion people live in conditions of extreme poverty today. This is a big problem in our society. Many people around the world do not have access to the amenities and objects that we take for granted. It’s sad to think that there are children in our world that do not have access to a tooth brush or even a trusty pair of socks. Yes, there are organizations out there, already working on helping people who live in poverty, but the thing that makes us unique, is that we are children taking a stand and making it our mission to help other kids living in poverty. They say that children are the future, let’s help make the future bright an help the children of our world.
Dream: Our plan is to make a package, full of necessities like canned food, small clothing items, toiletries, etc. We are going to start off by creating one packages for one child and send it to a girl in Columbia. Once we know that our package was successfully created and sent, we will start to take our idea further and hopefully create many more packages for children in need, around the world.
Deliver: We are planning on placing all the items that we collected for the package and place them in a box to keep the items safe and unharmed. Then, we are hoping that the package will get hand-delivered to the child that we are giving the package to. We will not be there to deliver it, but we will be there in spirit and we will hope that she will like the package!
Debrief: We are proud that we have been able to think of an idea of how we could help our planet and actually create it! From the beginning, we wanted to fundraise to raise money for the packages and create several packages to give to several kids. Yet, due to our lack of time to fundraise and the amount of money that it would cost to create several packages without being able to fundraise, we decided to start with one package and go from there. I believe that all of us would’ve liked to send more packages then to just one, but we know that if we keep our dream alive and work hard to reach our goal, it will be some day possible. This project has really inspired all of us in our group to help others in our world. No matter how old or how far away you are, there is nothing stopping you from helping others.
1. Prophase. In this step, the nuclear membrane has dissolved and spindle fibres have begun to attach to the chromosomes and pull the fibres. The fibres attach onto the centromere, which acts like a belt that holds the two chromatids together.
2. Metaphase. In this phase, the spindle fibres have brought the chromosomes into the middle of the cell to for a straight line right down the center of the cell.
3. Anaphase. In this step, the spindle fibres have pulled the chromatids appart from each other and have dragged them to opposite sides of the cell. The cell begins to stretch and split.
4. Telophase. In this phase, the cell has split into two new cells and two new nucleuses have formed in each new cell. The chromatids that were split appart are now inside the new nucleuses.
