Hi everyone in Mathland:
OK, I promised that if you went to the blog you'd find the plan for Wednesday, June 3. Here it is in part.
Do the Chapter Review found on pages 345 - 348, # 1 - 8. Remember, this is all about types of variation, all four of which you should have thumbnail sketches in your formula booklets.
In addition to that, recall we started this unit off with plotting scatterplots and determining the slopes of lines. The slope stuff is contained in the direct and partial variation graphs, so I won't ask you any plain old "what is the slope of this line" style question. I'll just ask you to graph a few sets of data points and you try to come to a conclusion based on how the majority of the dots seem to appear. A good example was the physics versus math scores. Another example was the house number and an exam mark (I can't recall which exam :). There was no relationship at all in that one and you could not predict how well a person would do on a test just by knowing their house number.
So that's about it. The quiz should take about an hour or so, after which you can leave.
Have a great time studying!!
Talk to you soon.
Joe
