  1. Hi! In MS112, the problems you said we could work if we wanted before the quiz tomorrow- what do I do with n + 2/n = 23/5 ? Thanks!

  2. Is this n + (2/n) = 23/5 OR (n+2)/n = 23/5?

  3. I think you mean the second one (n+2)/n = 23/5. Anytime you have two fractions set equal to one another you can cross multiply and solve. Hope it helps!

  4. Hello!(: (This is for the Summer Vacation Project) I don't really understand how to get the fraction for Hours of sleep which was 536 hours, I know the fraction (1/3) is already there for it, but I don't understand how you got it? I was wondering why, because I need it for the other hours for my activities I have. Sorry I meant to ask you this morning. Thank you!(:

  5. Hey! For the Summer vacation project, the fraction 1/3 doesnt seem to match up with the hours of sleep. 1/3 of the 1560 hours of summer would be 520. I was wondering if we should use the 520 hours of sleep or stay with the 536 hours of sleep

  6. No the 536 that was on the chart was basically an example of the the way the activity chart should look. That does not mean that 536 is necessarily 1/3 of 1560.

  9. For the summer project, say we have 49.8333 hours of cellphone usage. Can we round to 50?

    ReplyDelete
  10. Yes just make sure that if you use 50 then you use 50 everywhere, when adding the total hours, in the fraction, decimal, and percent.

  11. Hey Ms.Cotney(:i have a question about the summer vacation project.Can you explain it again to me how to do it cause i have my 6 activities plus my sleep,but idk what to do after that???

  12. Did you say we could have more than 7 activities on our Summer Vacationing project, because I have about 10?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Ok yes you can have more than 7 activities.

    Ok basically you have to find at least 7 activities and hours wise they must equal 1560. Sleep must be 1/3 of of 1560 hours. Once you decide on the hours you spent doing each activity then you find the fraction of 1560 hours that activity is, then put those in decimal and percentage forms also.

  15. In Algebra two, on the back of our worksheet, we have simplifying. I'm not really understanding it, and I'm not sure if we have gone over it or not? Do we need to have those done too?

  16. In Algebra 1 #15-25 odds.How do you write the question that could be used to solve the equation?How do you do it again.Would it be like #15 is says x+4=7,would i write it like 3+4=7?

    ReplyDelete
  17. You remember when I asked you all in class those questions and you had to use mental math to figure it out. I would say "What number plus 5 is 7?" and you guys would say 2. Does this help?

  23. Algebra II:
    The directions are: Write an equation of the line passing through the two points.

    (4,11)(5,9)

  24. Well if we know two points we can find the slope, right? Then you will know the slope and a point. Then what formula can you use if you know a point and the slope? Hope it helps!
