WPP 9: Story time with FCP, Permutations, and Combinations

Create your own Playlist on MentorMob!

Things to look out for are the keywords in each story so you can determine which formula to use. This is very important because using the wrong formula will mess you up big time. So therefore you have to make sure to check the keywords. Also notice that buying presents for people is somewhat a good thing because it shows kindness and that goes a long way. Happy Early Christmas and other stuff 

SP 6 Repeating Decimals

Things to look out for is that there needs to be the summation notation form when writing out your complete answer. Also, when adding the 2 near the end of the equation, it is important to turn it into a fraction so it is easier to add the numbers. Remembering the formula for this is also important since this whole test is basically plugging into the correct formula. Thanks!

SP 5 Unit J Concept 6: Repeating Factors in Fraction Decomposition

  Things to look in this SP is that I left a lot of the work to your assumption because it is expected that you already know how to do this problem. These are just simplified steps to show how I got to my answer. Another thing to look out for is that there is no y value so when we rewrite the decomposed fraction, we only have the variables A and C left.

SP 4 Unit J Concept 5: Partial Fraction Decomposition

 Things to look out for in this problem is that I used variables to help solve this fraction. Trying to factor things out wouldn't be possible unless using quadratic formula. You should notice that I used matrices to help cancel out variables to I can find the solutions to the answer. By using RREF on the calculator, you can find the values for each variable and also check your answer. 

Thanks for looking at this. 

SV 5 Unit J Concept 3-4: Matrices

Some things to notice is that to solve a matrices, you need to be able to get the triangle 0's and the 1's staircase. It is possible to use guess and check method, but that would take too long to do. Also, notice that it didn't take very long to solve because of the Gauss-elimination method which made it possible in 4 solutions. Also, remember to highlight the steps are you are doing so you don't get confused when doing a problem and make a mistake.

WPP 5 & 6 Unit I Concept 3-5: Basics of Banking/ Sophisticated Banking

Create your own Playlist on MentorMob!

Ayy, things to look out for in this WPP is to remember to put this equation into your graphing table in your graphing calculator. This greatly helps finding your compounded interests. Remember to hit trace to find the n (the number of times per year compounded) The answers are shown for you but the work you need to be able to do yourself to get the answers. Remember the formula for the test as well because that is very important. Thanks for looking at my WPP. 

SV 4 Unit I Concept 2: Logs in Graphs

The important thing to look out for in this video would be how to solve for the x-intercepts and y-intercepts. These parts are the most challenging for students because they usually get messed up on these parts. Remembering the asymptote also helps figure out which points to use because of the restrictions the asymptote puts on the graph. All of these things should be watched for during the video so students don't get mixed up on accident or anything. Thanks!

SP 3 Unit I Concept 1 Exponential Functions

 This problem is to show my understanding about graphing exponential functions. It shows how to identify the x-intercept, y- intercept, domain, and range. This problem is to show when there wouldn't be an x-intercept on an exponential function and how the asymptote affects the graph. 

The viewer needs to pay special attention to why the x-intercepts do not work in this exponential function. They also need to pay attention to asymptote and how that affects the graph. The domain and range also help with the restrictions of the graph. The viewer should also see how the y-intercept is solved for. 


Steps
1. Seperate the equation into A,H,B,K 
2. Began solving for x-intercept by setting y=0 
3. Notice that it can't be done because you can't take 
the In of a negative number 
4. Head to y-intercept
5. Plug in zero for x 
6. Use pemdas to correctly solve the y-intercept. 
7. Began choosing keypoints.
8. Plug equation into calculator and look up the points
8. Write the asymptote which is also K remember y=#
9. Draw the asymptote on the graph. 
10. Write out domain and range 
11. Do it correctly. 
12. Plot points on graph. 
13. Draw a line and you're done. 

SV 3: Unit H Concept 7: Finding Logs with Approximations

Things to look out for in this video are to remember the hidden clues because they are super helpful and to remember to correctly use either multiply/division and adding/subtraction symbols so you don't get confused when you write the logs out. Other things to look out for are how the exponent is written in condensed and expanded logs. Anyways, thanks for watching my video guys and have a great day. 

SV 2: Unit G Concept 1-7 Rational Functions

            
               For this video, I teach you the steps and guides on how to solve rational functions. This helps determine how the graph comes out as well as other things that are useful for your math class. By solving this problem you will learn how to overcome your fears in math and become a pro at it.  
              Some things you should notice when watching this video is the awkwardness that I face in video. Also at the end of the video, the graphing part, I was dying so excuse the awkward silence. However, you should pay attention to how the work is done so that you can learn more and be able to do well on the test. 
             Also do not mind the graph from the first video, i made a silly mistake so just watch the graph from the 2nd video to see how it is supposed to look like when you are done. The vert asymptote is x=-6 and the slant asymptote is x=x. Thanks for watching!

SV 1 Unit F Concept 10 4th and 5th Degree Polynomials

For this problem, we are focusing on finding the real and complex zeroes of a 4th degree polynomial. To solve for this polynomial, we will be using all the concepts that we learned throughout unit F to help find the zeroes of this polynomial. This video demonstrates how to find all the zeroes for the polynomial as well has helping you get a better understanding of the concept. 
The viewer needs to pay special attention to the Descartes rule of signs because many people have issues when dealing with this part of the polynomial. They should also pay attention to how the problem is solved by using synthetic division to get the polynomial to a binomial. Once reached to the binomial, the equation becomes very easy to solve by either using the quadratic formula or grouping method. It is important to remember that there is a possibility of imaginary or irrational zeroes.  

SP 2 Unit E Concept 7: Multiplicities and Graphs

This problem is to show my understanding about the multiplicities that are solved for when you factor a polynomial. It also shows the y- intercept as well as the end behavior to help others understand how I am able to graph it. The problem also shows the graph to show what the polynomial would look like if plotted on a graphing calculator. 

The viewer needs to pay special attention to the multiplicities and the end behavior. The end behavior helps tell how the end points of the graph and whether it goes up or down. The multiplicities help determine how the graph will pass the x-axis either through bouncing, going through it, or curving. These are some of the things that you, the viewer, should pay attention to when going over this problem. 

 Steps
1. Factor out the equation by splitting it up.
2. Set each factor equal to zero and solve
3. The solved are known as multiplicities
4. Multiplicities are 3M2, 4M1, and -2M1
5. End behavior show how the endpoints of the graph either go up or down. In this case they go up.
6. The y - intercept is found by plugging in 0 for all of the equations which shows that it is (0,-72)
7. The multiplicities determine how the graph passes the x-axis at the gates.
8. Roughly graph the equation according to multiplicities.

SP 1 Unit E Concept 1: Identifying The Properties of Quadratics

This problem is to show my understanding about quadratics that we learned when we watched the video podcast. The problem shows how to change it to a parent function equation as well as solving it.

The viewer should pay attention to the x intercepts as well as remembering how the axis should be labeled. They should also pay attention to the graph to see if it is plotted correctly.
