Week 10 Linear Relations
this week we reviewed linear relations from what we did in grade 9. What we review was the graphing. For example where the x and y axis was and the different quadrants.
quadrant 1: the x and y axis are positive
quadrant 2: the x axis is negative and the y axis is positive
quadrant 3: the x and y axis are negative
quadrant 4: the x axis is positive and the y axis is negative
Week 8 Factoring 123
Factoring 123 is steps to factor polynomials.
1: 1 thing in common
2: terms (difference of square)
3: terms (product and sum)
Math 10 Core Competencies
My goal is is to get my weekly blog post on time. How I’m going to achieve it, is by doing it on Sundays or Mondays. Im going to start this goal next week.
Week 7 Polynomials
This week we review polynomials. Something new I learned thought was how to do an Area Diagram. How do to it is by draw a box with boxes inside it. Then you have to put your equation on the side and top. For example, the picture is a monomial so it has four boxes with C and D at the top and A and Bon the side. Next you have to multiply AxC, AxD, BxC, BxD. then after you distribute the same property.
Chemistry Core Competencies
In the chemistry unit, the core competencies skills I used was Critical thinking. I used this because I had to anaylize, critique and develop questions when I work on the practice problems and when I work on equations. I also used Communication when we did our lab.
Week 5 Trigonometry
This week we didn’t really learn anything new it was just review on what we did during week 4. Something we did was using a scientific calculator to solve the questions. How to use a scientific calculator for trigonometry is by punching in cos, sin, or tan and entering the number after and if you need to use -1 you enter the shift button before.
Week 4 Trigonometry
Week 6 Polynomials
This week it was mainly just review of polynomials. Some new things I learned was different terms for different polynomials like monomial which is when there is 1 term, binomial when there is 2 terms, and trinomials when there is 3 terms. If there is 4 or more terms it is just called a polynomials.

I also learned different names for different degrees of polynomials
Constant= degree of 0
Linear=degree of 1
Quadratic=degree of 2
Cubic=degree of 3
Quartic=degree of 4
Quintic=degree of 5
the degree is the exponent on the variable.
