This week in class we learn how to make a number into an absolute value. In short, it is finding how far away from 0 a number is on a number line. when you are asked to find an entire radical you will see a number with two lines on either side of the number.
Eg. l-45l = 45
Eg. l32l = 32
If there is a minus symbol on the outside it means the radical will be negative.
Eg. -l-28l = -28
This week the thing that I learned in class that I found the most interesting was how to find the sum of an infinite geometric series. For a geometric series to be infinite the common ratio (r) has to be greater than -1 and less than 1 (Ex. 0.89).
The equation to find the sum of an infinite geometric series you have to use the following equation
if we had a series with the 1st term being 3 and the difference being 0.72 then the equation would look like the following.
This week I learned a lot of new things but one that stood out was finding out how to add up all the numbers in a arithmetic sequence. The formula we use is below.
In a sequence such as 1,3,5,7,9 to find 
Last term + First term x number of terms
