Zeros of a Function #6

For the Rational Zero Test, we first find all the possible zeros using P/S then test the zeros using the remainder theorem. A hint would be to graph to see all the possible points. The Rational Zero Tsst gives you the possibility of all the rational zeros. Once you find one, you can do synthetic division. Just like last week, we might have to use synthetic division multiple times. Since the work it really tedious, the Rational Zero Test is the best method to use. Remember both positive and negative parts of zeros!

Functions #3

Today, I learned that a function was an equation that you could put a in number called an input to end up with a solution which is the output. An example of a basic function equation would be f(x)=2x^2+1. A subsection of a function would be its domain. A domain is what you ask yourself, "what can I put in?" There are two ways to solve domains. First, if the problem has a square root you must set it to > or equal to 0, because a negative cannot be in a square root. Second, if there is denominator in the problem, set each denominator to zero, but keep in mind, the answer cannot be zero. If the answer is zero, the solution is undefined.

What I Learned in Week 1 #2

This week in Mathland, I learned how to graph intervals with brackets and parentheses. I also learned the properties of absolute value and how to find he distance between two numbers. The most recent lesson I learned was the Rectangular Coordinate System. I had to sketch (x,y) coordinates that satisfy two equations. The distance formula was also reviewed in order to solve for the different sides of a triangle. 

All About Me! #1

Let's see I grew up in San Gabriel and went to Temple City schools up until 7th grade when my parents moved me to Foothills is Arcadia. 

There are five people in my family, my mom, dad, older sister, and younger brother. I love being the middle child because I don't argue as much with them and am the most different in terms of personality. We get along, but I'm considered the "peacemaker."

I have played basketball since the first grade with my church then played in middle school and now high school. I also played soccer in kindergarten but quit when my best friend did for some reason. For about 4 years, I did ballet. 

My favorite colors are pink and purple and if I could, I would dress up every day of the week. People don't usually think of me as a girly girl, but I am! I love heals and fancy dresses and getting my hair done!

Oh! I loooove Disney. My favorite princess would be Belle because she loves to read and is kind to everyone. 

I am a very honest person and will tell you how it is. Some people don't like that, but it were up to me, I would rather have people tell me how it is rather than beating around the bush. I'm generally happy and get excited about random things. I love being with people and get freaked out when I'm alone.
