Systems of Equations and Linear Programming

Note date changes due to storm/power outage!

Chapter 3 explores applications of systems of equations and systems of inequalities. You will do a lot of graphing. Get some graph paper and a ruler!

***** 2 days without power *****
Day 7:  3.5  Linear Programming (Day 2)     (Answer Key)
                  HW Finish Handout of harder problems
Day 8:  3.5  Review
                  HW Finish Review Handout

Day X:  A-Block only - an activity
                  HW review for test
11/08  Ch 3 Test

We will spend time (before or after the test depending on the block) looking at 3D Systems of equations before moving on to Matrices, the topic of Chapter 4.

Transformations

We have been talking about what functions are and how we can combine them. Transformations are about manipulating functions - moving them around, changing their size, flipping them over. We are studying the topic in general but every time we study a particular kind of function in the future, we will again discuss how the transformations affect that function. This is section 2.7 in the text.

Because of the Friday Professional Developement Day, A-Block will have one more day on the topic (a moving-around activity!!). Thus, I have used a table.
