week 11 in pc

This week in Pre Calculus 11 we learned about Graphing Linear Inequalities in two variables. The solutions to these inequalities are represented by a boundary line and shading one side of the line.

Ex:

key notes

 

choosing any coordinate (the easy one  is 0,0) and seeing if the statement is true or false.

 

week 8 in pc

This week in pc we analyzed the quadratic function. In the equation each variable represents something that can change the graph.

positive sign, the graph moves up, negative sign, the graph moves down.

positive sign, the graph moves right, negative sign, the graph moves left.

positive sign, the graph opens up, negative sign, the graph opens down.

greater than 1, the graph is stretched vertically, between 0 and1,

the graph is compressed vertically.

 

 

 

 

Careers/ conversations reflection

The opportunity for me to speak to some people with various careers. Overall my experience learning about these new jobs was inspiring. I talked to some talented people who I was so interested. these people helped me about open up my options on what I can do when I graduated from university.

I spoke with Lindsey Jackson. She has many different jobs, Writer/ Producer/ Researcher/ interviewer in Reality or Documentary TV. I learned that I do not have to focus on one job, I can have multiple jobs and combine them together. her job is not what her expected, because of everyday is a new adventure. This inspired me to realize that not everyday has to be the same, I could have a variety of places to work.

Then I spoke to Jennifer Nelson. She is an English teacher. English is very impotent for me also is hard. English is my second language, even if I work in China, I have to good at English, too. I learned that if I want to improve my English skill, I need make some Canadian friends, hang out with them, more talking, more listening.

 

week 5

This week we finished our unit on Absolute Values and Radicals.what we learned was add, subtract, multiply and divide them.

In this sections of this chapter we discussed solving equations and inequalities that contain absolute values. We have learned equations with absolute value in them in this section. I know that that the absolute value bars are not parentheses and in many cases don’t behave as parentheses, and all that we need to do is identify the point on the number line and determine its distance from the origin.

 

 

week 2

the thing I learned in this week is Arithmetic sequences/series and Geometric sequences/ series.

Key notes

  • the difference between sequences and series

sequences:5,9,13,17…

series:5+9+13+17…

  • importent formula

Arithmetic sequences

 

 

Arithmetic series

geometric sequences

geometric series

Example

  • how to solve the Arithmetic series?

ex: Find the sum of the following arithmetic series 1,2,3…..99,100

We have a total of 100 values, so n=100.  first value is 1 and the last is 100. We plug these values into our formula, get:
