Adding Mixed Numbers
Questions :
1 3/4 + 1 1/8
2 4/5 + 1 1/2

1) 1 3/4 + 1 1/8 - First step is to add the whole numbers , so 1 + 1 = 2. - Second step is to find the common denominator, Then we multiply 4 x 8 < x8 =" 32"> 32 is the same as saying 16 so we have 2 ?/16 2 12 /16 + 2 1/16 = 2 14/16 = s 7/8 1 3/4 + 1 1/8

2) 2 4/5 + 1 1/2 = 3
8/10 + 5/10 = 13/10 = 3 13/10 Three thirteen tenths .

Pay It Forward

7:51 PM

(2) Comments

Before winter vacation we had watched a movie called "Pay it forward", which is about a boy who had a social studies assignment to change the world by helping people then telling them just to pay it forward. Our assignment was to do an act of kindness. Here are the questions.
1) Who are you going to help?
2) What are you going to do?
3) Where are you going to do this?
4) When are you going to do this?


This winter the task I chose is to put up most of the decorations inside and even outside my house. On the day before Christmas Eve my dad and me had went to buy new Christmas light for the front yard and some Christmas tree decorations. When we got home the first thing i did was to check if all the lights worked and put them up. By the time i had finished i started Putin up the tree and putting on the decorations.
Here's a picture.

( picture is not uploading ) ill try to get it up tomorrow.

Then from there I told my dad to pay it forward and he helped my neighbour put up some of there lights and then after new years my dad told me half of my street got " payed forward " and it had started with just 1 person. When he told me i got very surprised and I felt good inside.

The Question we had to answer was can one person make a difference?
I think 1 person can make a difference from the experience i had this winter made me thing alot about this question so yes one person can make a difference.
Happy new years .

You never can subtract cause that's just whack

(Rule for Multiplying Integers) -Free verse


The rule for multiplying is not as hard as you think

if you take a while you'll wink.

If you have diffrent integers it will turn negative.

If you have the same it will turn positive.

Chapter 2 :

Combining like terms and the Distribute Property

characters : Ricoo and Lardecoo.

place : Mathiscool st.

One day Ricco and Lardecoo was having a coffee, walking down Mathiscool street. When they were going to throw away the rest of there coffee they noticed a question under the cup.


Ricoo " What does it say ? "

Lardecoo " It says N+3-5n+12 "

Ricoo " Thats a hard question "

----- Silence for 20 secounds ---

Lardecoo " This question is easy if you take the N times the 12 minus the 5 it equals -6n+15 "

Lardecoo " smilly face "

Ricoo " That cannot be right "

Lardecoo " yes it is "

Ricoo " no its not "

Lardecoo " yes it is "
Ricoo " no its not "

Lardecoo " yes it is "
Ricoo " no its not "

Ricco "This is how you get the answer

Circle the first number, then you look for the same number which is -5n "

Lardecoo " ohhhhhh "

Ricoo " Now you circle the nest number which is 3 and find the same number agian which is +12 this time "

Lardecoo " ohhhhh "
Ricoo " yeap ... "

Ricoo " now you regroup them "

Ricoo " n-5n+3+12"

Ricoo " Now make buckets to seperate them "

n-5n equals bucket

+3+12 equals bucket

now you do the math

n-5n equals -4n

and +3+12 equals +15

Lardecoo " SOO the answer is -4n+15 "

Ricoo " yes your right "

Darren's Integer Story

Once upon a time there was a gangster who needed money, So he went out side to hustle people. When he went outside he got in to his car and started up the engine, then he drove to a store to ask people to buy some stuff. The first person to come up to him told the gangster he would buy his stuff if he knew what (+12)+(-3) equaled. The gangster had trouble answering in his head so he used the rock's that were on the floor. The gangster said if i have 12 rock's and i owe u 3 rock's I would have 9 penny's left. When the gangster answered, the man bought all the stuff the gangster had.

After a while of hustling the gangster went back in his car to buy some orange juice to sell the people when he to the store there was a bunch of orange juice on the shelf and he didn't know which one to pick so he went to the cashier and asked which one is better and the cashier said the one with the numbers (+30)+(-37) and if u answer that, that's the aisle its in . The gangster used the penny's in the cashier. So he drew the following ( put picture in here ) . When he found the answer he went to aisle 7 and got 6 orange juice boxes. He looked inside the juice boxes and got the prizes out. The prizes were a coloured pencil, a button, a eraser and the rest were empty.


When the gangster was done drinking all the OJ he went to his mothers house to give her the prizes and get money from her for his birthday which was 1 month ago. when he got to his mothers house the gangster's key wouldn't work so he used the pencil and when it didn't work he slammed the door, then a note fell down off the roof saying (+15)+(-9), and it also said "Help me I'm stuck inside". When the Gangster read that he was so scared he used the other prizes to try to open the door. when he couldn't open the door he looked around for a open window and save his mother, then he remembered the question (+15)+(-9) and said "what could that mean" so he answered the question using a number line. When he got the answer +6 he think'ed for about 4 minutes to think what that could have meant when it hit him the lock combo to the shed in the backyard was 6. Then when he opened the shed he saw his mother just laying down sleeping. He picked up his mother and brang her to his house where she slept for the night.
In the morning when the gangster woke up, he went in the living room and couldn't see his mother on the couch, but he saw a mini safe with another question on it (+100)+(-100). His eyes grew so big because the number was too big for him to find the answer so he went to his grade 8 teacher and asked for help. So the next day he went off, when he told his grade 8 teacher the question the teacher said the answer was 0. Then the gangster was so confused he asked how he got it and the teacher said zero pairs. so the gangster put the arrow on 0 on the the mini safe and opened it and inside was 500 dollars. After that the gangster never hustled or anything like that anymore instead he took a course in collage.
THE END

Today in class we were given page 43 and 44 in the yellow booklet to do today. Mr.Harbeck gave us 10 minutes to work cause he is very nice. WARNING: On #8 balloon is spelt baloon .

The questions i was given to do on my scribe was 6 - 10 on page 44 for F.


Translate all the questions into an expression involving integers and find the integers that represents the overall change.


This is how to do #6


Step #1 Read the question :

A certain stock starts at 319 points, gains 55 points, drops 45 points, and drops 28 points.


Step #2: Write down all the integers you see, then answer using brackets, plus signs etc ..



#7

An elevator starts on the 9th floor, descends 5 floors and ascends 9 floors.





#8


A helium filled balloon is released, gains 53 m , drops 32 m, gains 47 m, and drops 38 m.


Now that i showed you how to do 3 you should now know how to do the rest. All of this is due tommaorw.

Here is a video on integers.



I choose Brenden.M to do tomorrows post.

  • Put raw data into an ascending order.

  • ADD all the data's up and divide by how much data there is.

  • If you have an outlier it changes the mean alot , and screws it up .



  • Put raw data into an ascending order.

  • Then find the middle numbers add them then divide by 2.

  • If you have an outlier it is easier to find the median.


  • Put raw data into an ascending order.

  • Most common data.
  • you can have more than 1 mode.
  • Put raw data into acsending numerical order.
  • largest data minus the smallest data.

Here Is a video explaining mean, median, and mode
