Hello everyone
Im the scribe thing what ever you call it for today anyways in class today we didn't do a mental math i was so happy about that well what we did do was area how to find it in rectangle and others.
Well also we had to work on mutiplying polynomials it was easy i say, well here are some examples:
(3a)(2b)=6ab
(-2f)(-5f)=1oF2
(4e)(-3e)=-12e
stuff like that we had to do and more but here is what was on the other side of the page:
5(x+3) = 5x+5 . 3 = 5x+15
5(x-3) = 5x-5 . 3 = 5x-15
2(x+6) = 2x+12

Here was someother thing that we had to do
8+3(x+2)
8+3x+6
3x+14
that was a question on the other page that i had to do
I hope this scribe wasn't to weird well bye bye
STEP

Scribe Post
Hello Christian here for the scribe post.



The first thing we did is mental math while playing BINGO. The winner of the game is Alisa for the second time. The mental math was about Multiplying Polynomials.

ex.

(3x
²y²) (6abx²z³)
First step is you multiply the number coefficients = (3)(6)= 24 And then multiply the variables = (x
²y²) (abx²z³)= abx³y²z³
put the two together= 24abcx
³y²z³

The next thing we did is we went over to our tests about Adding and Subtracting Polynomials.

Then we did question number 16 in the pap
er that Miss Nicholson gave us about Algebraic Problems about Perimeter.

Ex.




So the first thing you do is add both sides.
-7x
²+9
2x
²-3
-----------
-5x²+6
Then subtract the answer to the perimeter.
-20x
²-10 = -20x²-10
- -5x² +6 =+ 5x² -6
--------------------------------
the answer is -15x
² -16

and lastly we had the bag and we put money for donation now we have $66.00 :)

Adding and Subtracting Polynomials
Hi every one !
i am scribe post today and need to tell you guys what did we do in class


today in class Ms. Nicholson pass to us a bag for the world vision's gift catalogue and we put carpel of dollar that we can put.

Then she give us a quiz of Subtracting Polynomial and adding polynomial

(2(2x)+2x+5) - (2(5x) - 7x +4) first be for we do this. When we subtracted one polynomial from another we add the additive inverse ( opposite) of the polynomial that's being
Subtracted
Example: (2(2x)+2x+5)
(2(-5x) + 7x-4)
=(2(-3x)+9x+1

Adding
Example: (2(3y) - 8y+3) + (2(2y)+8y-9)

(2(3y) - 8y+3)
+ (2(2y)+8y-9)
=(2(5y)-6

Christmas Giving
Hello students!!

On Friday we had a bit of a discussion about two of my favorite quotations:

  • "We can do no great things only small things with great love" (Mother Teresa).
  • "Be the change you want to see in the world" (Mahatma Gandhi).

Out of this we agreed that over the next two weeks we're going to pool our funds to buy a gift (or more!) for someone in the world who needs it but can't afford it otherwise.

We are doing this through World Vision's gift catalogue. If you want to start getting some ideas, feel free to check out the gifts on the website for yourself. At the end of the two weeks, we will see how much money we have and vote on which gifts we will purchase.

Remember, your gifts will be given silently into a bag that we will pass around the room at the beginning of every class. This is because we all come from different circumstances and each of us may not be able to contribute the same amount, but we can all give something and every little bit counts. It will be a collective effort. And don't forget, I will match every dollar you contribute, so if you do the math...

Feel free to leave a comment with an idea for your classmates as to how you can save up a few dollars.

Happy giving!

Test
Hi every one!

Today in class we start with Introduction of Polynomial and we answered all of them in class.

For example:

-2c + 10

Numerical coefficient: -2
Variable: c
Constant: 10
classification: binomial
Degree: first degree(even if you don't see exponent of c)

and we get Little trick here! 9t-8

Numerical coefficient: 9
Variable:t
Constant:-8 because negative is for 8 number
Classification:binomial
Degree:is 1 because the exponent of t is one .

Then Ms Nicholson give us test which it's all about
introduction of polynomial and translate of mathematical expression. I don't thing so if this test was hard because we have all ready learned about them.

That all we did to today.Oops i forget to tell you guys we have to hand in the like terms and Thursday is day to hand in.If you need a bonus mark to add in your last exam please go to room 69 @ 12:30 on Thursday.

If you want to bring a gift for Christmas child you can bring any thing that you like and give Ms.Necholson.
