Discussion VI

ASA Al Nur Algebra II Class!

Lets work on our word problem skills!

Keith has $500 in a savings account at the beginning of the summer. He wants to have at least $200 in the account by the end of the summer. He withdraws $25 each week for food, clothes and movie tickets. Write an inequality that represents Keith's situation. How many weeks can Keith withdraw money from his account? Should you use an inequality or an equal sign? Why? Justify your answer.

Remember, discussions are written in paragraph form (at least 4 sentences).

Due: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 @ midnight!

Discussion Question 5

ASA,

Discuss how we are to determine the slope of a graph. Also, what two forms of equations representing a graph did we learn in class on Friday? Is understanding slope important when using these forms? Why or why not? Lastly, what does the x-intercept and y-intercept tell us a about a graph?

Due Date: Monday, November 19, 2012 @ 11:59pm. 

Don't forget, the correct way to answer your discussion questions are in complete sentences in paragraph form. I did not take off points last discussion question, but I will in the future if you do not answer them in the correct format.

Homework Help- Linear Equations

ASA!

Having trouble with linear equations? Remember the goal is to get all variables on one said of the equal sign and get all numbers on the other side of the equal sign.

For example: Number 25 in your book work pg. 21

2z - 3 = 6z + 25

1. We notice that on each side of the equal sign there is a variable and a number ( 2z - 3, 6z + 25)
2. We need to move the numbers all on one side.
3. Lets move the 3 first. Since the three is subtracted we add it to both sides to get rid of it.

2z - 3 = 6z + 25
     +3         +3
---------------------
2z +0 = 6z + 28     or      2z = 6z + 28 ( I removed the zero)

4. But we are still not done. We need to get all the "like" terms on one side. Lets move the z's all to one side and keep the numbers on the other. In order to do that we must subtract 6z from both sides.

2z = 6z + 28
-6z   -6z
---------------------
-4z = 0 + 28      or    -4z = 28

5. Last step, solve for z. Since the -4 is multiplied by the z, divide -4 on both sides of the equal sign.

-4z = 28
----    ----
-4      -4

z = -7
