What problem did you get wrong? Why did you get it wrong?

Mr. Gerson, do you have to put in all of the grades by this wednesday? Will there be any extra credit?

Mr. Gerson said...

Remember: You are graded by semesters. Quarter grades show where you are midway through the semester.

Your grades are based upon academic achievement and determine your high school math class placement. As I have repeated many times, I do not give extra credit. Extra credit is fluff to inflate a grade that would no longer be a measure for achievement.

Totday after a majical lesson check that consisted of a single problem telling us to fill out a punnent square with the given equation. Not too much later, Mr. Gerson went through the quizez and explained the simple task of signing our name at the bottom. Then we recieved a Chapter 5 study guide, in which the answers are posted on the home page of the blog.Enjoy everyone!!! Let the math flow through your veins!
Yours truley,

ummm... i dont get how b is the answer for #8...
60x^/12x^

Paige H. Per.4 said...

60x (to the 7)
over 12x (to the -4)

Anonymous said...

@paige: 60 divided by 12 is 5. so the coefficient is 5. and since the exponent for the bottom part is negative, it goes to the top. then its x^7 times x^4. equals x^7+4. it equals x^11. then is equals 5x^11

Paige H. Per.4 said...

@ jen
thanks! i kept thinking that if you switch them, you have to switch the coefficient too...yeeah.

Mr.Gerson,
Will we be doing practice problems tomorrow so we will be prepared for the test? I am having problems on "scientific notation", everyone says it's easy but even with the books examples I can't seem to figure it out.

Paige H. Per.4 said...

we have to do scientific notation??

MarcusB. per.6 said...

Mr Gerson, will you count this test today in the gradebook for this quarter?
