Today, in math class, we worked on finding slope on a graph. We figured out that no matter what two points we use on a line, we will always get the same slope! We discussed similar triangles being found using the ratio of "rise over run" for all of the different points, and then applied it to a real life situation of building a skateboarding ramp. For homework, you must finish the finding slope on a graph worksheet if you did not finish it in class.
Today, in algebra class, we continued to work on our graphing brochures that are due tomorrow. Some students are still have difficulty with the horizontal and vertical lines sections. You must give me an example, and then explain what the slope is for the example, create a table of values, and then graph and show either the horizontal line or the vertical line. Then, we worked on interpreting slope and y-intercept when given a word problem, an equation, a table, or a graph. Your homework is to finish that small packet. Reminder: your Chapter 4 test got moved to Monday. We will be working in class tomorrow on one final piece of information necessary for the test, and then starting review!
