Parallel and Perpendicular Lines



Below is the link to a video about parallel and perpendicular lines.  This video covers important information about parallel and perpendicular lines and goes through a few examples.


Remember the slopes of lines that are parallel are the same. The slopes of lines that are perpendicular are opposite reciprocals.

Journal Linear Equations



When writing a linear equation which method do you prefer: Standard form (Ax + By= C), Slope-Intercept Form (y=mx+b), of Point-Slope from (y-y1 = m(x-x1) ). Why? Why do you think we learn different ways to write linear equations?

Due 11/22 Must be 150 words


Extra 5 points (optional)

Find a real life situation involving a linear equation or a real life situation you can apply linear equations to. Use the news, internet, or other resources. You must cite the source of the information.

Chapter 4.1 and 4.2 Slope-Intercept Form

Chapter 3 Review

Below is the review video on Chapter 3 topics. Watch the video and then use the end of the video to correct your study guide. If you get any answers on the study guide wrong, see if you can find your mistake. Come to class tomorrow with questions!

There is one mistake in the video, on the discussion on slope r should equal 3.

Journal Week 2


What connections can you make between slope/rate of change, direct variation, and arithmetic sequences? Reflect on what these topics have in common and how they relate to one another. Use the videos watched this week and class notes to refer to. Also list any questions you have from this week's topics.

Must be 150 Words and in a specific notebook for math journals!
Due Friday 11/8
