This week in 8th grade we are continuing to work with graphing linear equations. We started out this week learning about the third way to graph linear equations, point slope form. Now we know three ways slope intercept form (y=mx+b), standard form (Ax+By=C), and point slope form (y-y1=m(x-x1)). We have begun to discuss when is the appropriate time to use each of the different forms such as when writing equations for parallel lines or perpendicular lines. Next we will review scatter plots and how to create a line of best fit for a set of data. Lastly, we will review what the graph of a absolute value equation looks like and how to make it move around the coordinate plane.
Quiz on 6.4-6.8 on Thursday Jan. 29
Problem of the Week Line Logic due Monday Feb. 2
Test Wednesday Feb. 4
Mid Year Final Feb. Thursday Feb. 5
I look forward to seeing all of you who are planning on attending "Math Mania" tonight.
