# Lesson 06

### 01.01.06 Do you know the continents?

 Continent outline mapshttp://www.eduplace.com/ss/maps/Continent bordershttp://img509.imageshack.us/img509/1630/sevenconao0.jpg

Download a map of the world from the "Outline Maps" web site. Color the seven continents, each continent a different color. Be careful to put the borders of the continents in the correct place. Making sure that you also include the major oceans that are in or around each continent. Make sure you have a compass rose, equator, prime meridian, tropic of cancer, and tropic of capricorn on the map. Put some of the major countries in also. A big HINT: the map above is not exactly correct as to borders and continents.

You will be graded on the completeness of the assignment. Make sure that the continents borders are correct (hint: Europe and Asia, No. America and So. America, etc.). Make sure to be neat and legible. Use a key if it will help make the map more understandable.

***70% or higher is required to pass any assignment***

### 01.06 More Interactions: Design an Experiment (Earth Systems)

 Introduction: You have just completed an experiment that explored the interaction between an abiotic factor (fertilizer) and a biotic factor (algae). Now your task is to design and conduct an experiment that explores the interaction between an abiotic and biotic factor of your choice. WOW! How exciting is that! You get to choose, and the world is your laboratory. The options are limitless. All you have to do is choose an abiotic factor and a biotic factor and design an experiment that tests how they interact. I will give you an example of an experiment that explores the relationship between the abiotic factor sunlight and biotic plants. THIS IS ONLY AN EXAMPLE. You may NOT use this experiment for this assignment. [Most of you did this experiment in second grade!] The question might be “What is the effect of sunlight on pansies?” 01.06 pansies The hypothesis might be “If I put pansies in a dark closet then they will not grow as well as pansies put on a lighted windowsill.” The experimental plan could be: 1. Get six pansies (a type of flowering plant) that are the same species and as close to the same size as possible. 2. Put three pansies in the closet and three pansies on the windowsill in the sunlight. 3. Water all six plants the same. 4. Visually inspect the plants once a day for 14 days. 5. Daily measure the height of each plant and count the number of healthy leaves. Record your observations on a data table. See how easy it is? Remember, you cannot do an experiment with sunlight and plants for two reasons. One, you already know what the result will be. You did this already in second grade! Two, I have already outlined the experiment. Part of what you need to learn in this class is how to design your own experiment. You cannot learn that by doing an experiment that I have already designed! So, off you go. Be creative. Design your own experiment. But wait! Be sure to read the directions before you do anything!!!!!

### 01.06 Solving Multi-Step Inequalities (Math Level 1)

 Solve multi-step inequalities and justify the steps involved.

Something to Ponder

What are some things you need to consider as you write expressions or equations to model real-life situations and problems?

Mathematics Vocabulary

Inequality: an expression with an inequality sign (like < , ≤ , > or ≥) instead of an equals sign

Solve linear inequalities: perform the same operation on both sides of the inequality.

Note: When $\fn_phv {\color{Red}multiplying }$ or $\fn_phv {\color{Red}dividing }$ both sides of an inequality by a $\fn_phv {\color{Red}negative }$ number, $\fn_phv {\color{Red}reverse }$ the $\fn_phv {\color{Red}inequality }$ $\fn_phv {\color{Red}symbol }$.

An inequality remains unchanged if:

• the same number is added to both sides of the inequatily
• the same number is subtracted from both sides of the inequality
• both sides of the inequality are multiplied or divided by a positive number

### 01.06 The Greek Gods and the Trojan War (English 9)

Many of the assignments in the first semester will refer to a story first told in ancient Greece: The Odyssey, by Homer. You will understand it better if you know a little about the Greek gods, especially Zeus, Poseidon, Athena, Hera, Ares, Hephaestus, Hermes and Aphrodite. If you are already familiar with the Greek gods, you might want to skim this and go on.

The Greek gods were pretty much like regular people, except that they were immortal and had supernatural powers. They were not necessarily ethical, just, merciful or kind, and could be selfish and capricious. They sometimes had temper tantrums or did things on a whim. They definitely played favorites.

 Zeus: (WMC, CC, from Väsk image) Zeus was the king of the gods, and the most powerful. He could use lightning bolts to strike people he didn't like. He also liked to sleep around, and had dozens, maybe even hundreds, of children from mortal women. (The other male gods also occasionally had children with mortal women.) Zeus' wife, Hera, was jealous (with good cause) and did not like these children of Zeus and his mortal lovers. Poseidon with his trident and horses (fountain sculpture): (WMC,CC, Pacogq image) Poseidon was Zeus' brother, and god of the ocean. As well as storms at sea, he could cause earthquakes by striking the earth with the trident he carried. Hephaestus, another brother, was god of the forge, volcanoes and fire. He usually minded his own business and left mortals alone. He was married to Aphrodite, goddess of beauty and love, who was a flirt and an airhead. A third brother, Ares, was god of war. He was short-tempered, cruel, impulsive and a bit of a coward and bully. Hades, also brother to Zeus, was god of the underworld - where people went after death. He had a three-headed dog named Cerberus. Athena: (WMC, CC, G.dallorto image) Athena was Zeus' daughter, and goddess of wisdom, useful crafts and war. She was suppposed to have sprung full-grown from Zeus' head. Of all the gods, Athena was the one most likely to be reasonable and just. The city of Athens was named in her honor. In The Odyssey, Athena helps Odysseus because she likes his intelligence and courage. Hermes was the messenger god, and could fly because he had winged sandals. He could be mischievious, but was usually good-humored. Other important gods included Artemis (goddess of the hunt), Apollo (god of the sun), Dionysius (god of wine), Demeter (goddess of the earth & harvest), and Hestia (goddess of the hearth & home).

The Trojan War

Helen was the most beautiful woman in the world, and when she reached marriageable age, young men came from all around in hopes of becoming her husband.
One man who came courting Helen was Odysseus, who was already known for his intelligence and common sense. Odysseus could see that any man who married Helen would probably be attacked and killed by others who wanted to steal her, so he convinced all the men there to make a treaty of sorts - they all agreed that they would help defend whichever man Helen married.

Helen married Menelaus of Sparta, all the others went home, and everything went well for several years. Odysseus went home to Ithaca and fell in love with Penelope. They married and had a son, Telemachus.

Problems started with the gods. Athena, Hera and Aphrodite were tricked into an argument about who was the most beautiful, and Zeus named Paris, a good-looking young man, to be the judge.
Each of the goddesses tried to bribe him, and Aphrodite, who promised him the most beautiful woman in the world as wife, won the contest. She helped Paris to steal Helen from Menelaus.

Paris took Helen to Troy, and Menelaus called upon all the men who had once promised to help defend him.

These Greeks laid siege to Troy for ten years. Many famous battles and heroes had a part in the war, but in the end the Greeks won by a trick planned by Odysseus:
The Trojan horse: (WMC, public domain)
The Greeks pretended to leave, but left a large, hollow wooden horse behind. Odysseus and a few soldiers hid inside the wooden horse, which the Trojans dragged into the city during their premature celebration. That night, the men snuck out of the horse and opened the city gates to let in the whole Greek army, who had come back under cover of darkness. The Greeks sacked Troy, Helen (no longer under Aphrodite's spell) went home with Menelaus, and all the Greeks started home.

The story of The Odyssey tells Odysseus' adventures on his journey home, which takes years.

### 01.06 Aging, Death and Dying (Health II)

As a young person, you probably have not yet had any reason to think about your own old age or death. You might not even have experienced the death of a close loved one. If your grandparents are alive and nearby, you probably have witnessed at least a few of the problems of aging. In any case, you know that all of us will die eventually, and most of us will grow old. In our culture, we try to remain young as long as possible, and tend to avoid thinking about aging or death. Although staying active and healthy is certainly a good thing, sometimes avoiding a subject just makes it even more of a scary bogeyman in the dark closet.

More than likely, you will someday have to cope with issues relating to your parents' aging, and then your own. Some important questions about aging and death are best addressed before the issues arise. Will there be enough money to support you when you can no longer work? If you were badly injured or had a serious heart attack or stroke, would you want to be kept on life support indefinitely even if there seemed to be no hope of recovery? How long would you want to be kept on life support? Would you want (for yourself or an elderly loved one) a 'do not resuscitate' order? Would you want your organs, or a loved one's organs, donated? Should people who are terminally ill have the right to doctor-assisted suicide? When our pets are suffering or very infirm, and we can't 'cure' the problem, we often consider it kind to euthanize them. Should the same be true for people? Should a person dying or in extreme pain be hospitalized, or should 'hospice' care be available at home? If a terminally ill patient is in such great pain that only dangerously high doses of painkillers can keep them comfortable, should we risk giving such high doses of drugs?

### 01.06 Basic Vocabulary for Parts of Speech & Usage review (English 9)

 Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking. Use various types of phrases (noun, verb, adjectival, adverbial, participial, prepositional, absolute) and clauses (independent, dependent; noun, relative, adverbial) to convey specific meanings and add variety and interest to writing or presentations.

Earlier in your school career, you have probably learned about parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc), clauses, and phrases. If you are not 100% sure about any of these, use the links below and/or the attachments to review; you will need to understand them to be able to work on some of the more advanced writing we will work on in this class. Mastering the use of various phrases and clauses will help you express your ideas as clearly as possible. As you read more complex works, you will sometimes find it easier to follow long, complicated sentences if you are able to break them down into their constituent parts.

### 01.06 Lesson 1F: Using ¿Cómo? and ¿Qué? (Spanish 1)

Lesson 1F
Using ¿Cómo? and ¿Qué?"

[A copy of this lesson is available in a PDF file!! If you prefer to use this type of document, just click on the following link to complete this lesson: SpI_Lesson1F]

Lesson 1C was all about what to say when you first meet someone. After saying “Hello”, the next thing you want to do is ask questions!! In organizing the curriculum for this Spanish course, we felt that being able to form questions and understanding “interrogative words” was essential for being able to communicate in Spanish!! What we are finding in other textbooks and materials on the internet, is rarely are specific “question words” taught individually. Most resources group all of these words together in one presentation. So we asked ourselves, “Selves … maybe we shouldn’t change our plans??” But over time, we have decided that focusing on forming questions in Spanish, really helps us to feel comfortable in speaking and initiating conversations. It is essential!! So, we are continuing with our original plan and finding that “question words” taught in one presentation could be a great method of learning new words, reviewing words already taught, and introducing words for future lessons!! So we’ll be utilizing many different web links and video clips in our “question words” lessons that will include words we have learned, are learning, and will be learning later in the course!! Exciting!! So lets begin...

Probably, the most commonly used “interrogative words” in English and Spanish are “¿cómo? – what/how? and “qué? – what/how?”. Notice that both of these words appear to have the same English translation, but they are not interchangeable!! Depending on the situation and information needed, only one of these question words is commonly used! Actually, you have already seen both of these words in asking some basic questions in the dialogues from lesson 1C!!

Question word “¿Cómo?”: Usually the question word “¿Cómo?" is translated into English as “How?”. It is used to ask about something/someone and also to question the degree or intensity of something.

Question word “¿Qué?”: Usually the question word “¿Qué?" is translated into English as “What?”. It is used to ask for a definition or an explanation.

Here are a few basic rules for asking questions in Spanish:

The following links are so easy to use and have lots of great information on proper greetings and introductory questions. I couldn’t seem to get the audio to work but maybe you can!! The information is a great review!!

This is a great site that looks at Spanish words used to translate the English word “What?” This web page focuses on ¿Cómo? and ¿Qué? ... which is wonderful for helping to learn this lesson, but also introduces the question word ¿Cuál? ... getting us excited about words we will learn in later lessons!!

Once again, our wonderful “Professor Jason”!! This is a great discussion of “question words”. His presentation includes not only the interrogative words in this lesson, ¿cómo? and ¿qué?, but covers many of the other important question words!! The first few minutes should be familiar to you as he discusses the concepts of this lesson, and a fabulous introduction of many of the other question words we will be learning!! So just sit back and enjoy your own private tutor session with “Professor Jason”!!

Summary of Lesson: The two interrogative/question words, ¿cómo? and ¿qué, are two of the most commonly used Spanish words in forming sentences that ask for information. Now there are all kinds of things you should be able to learn about your new Spanish speaking friend!!

Practice Exercises: There are quite a few activities with question words but once again, they include lots of words that we haven’t learned yet!! These activities include practicing question words, along with introductory greetings!! When finished with each activity, close the window by clicking on the “X” button at the top, right corner of your internet browser to return to this page in do another activity!

### 01.06 More Interactions: Design an Experiment (Earth Systems)

 teacher-scored 10 points possible 180 minutes

If you need to review the basics about how to design an experiment, click on the "Experiment Guidelines" document above.

Materials:

· Whatever you decide

Assignment:

Click on the "Rubric Experiment" document above to find out how your experiment will be scored.

1. Determine what you want to find out when you do your experiment. Write down the QUESTION that you are trying to answer. If you are having trouble coming up with a question, look outside. Make a list of 10 biotic factors and 10 abiotic factors. Then think of ways that the biotic things interact with the abiotic things. Think of experiments you could do to test how the factors interact.

2. Predict what you think the outcome of your experiment will be. (Hypothesis)

3. Design an experiment to test your prediction. Remember to include a control. Be very specific. Tell me exactly what you plan to do. Tell me how much of everything you plan on using. Tell me how long you plan on running the experiment and how often you will check it. Tell me how you will record your data. I want details!!!

01.06 4. STOP!!! Submit your experimental design to me via email before going any further. I promise to give you feedback on your design within three days. If the design is scientifically sound, you may go ahead and conduct your experiment. If it has flaws, we will work together until you have designed a valid, reliable experiment---then you may go ahead and conduct your experiment.

5. AFTER you have received my go-ahead, conduct your experiment. Be sure to keep detailed lab notes. Your lab notes should contain a record of everything you did as well as all the data you collected. Each entry on your lab notes should be dated. (Month/day/year) 6. Follow the directions below to submit your assignment.

ANALYSIS

2. Send me your lab notes. I want to the observations that you recorded. Do not simply send me a summary of your results. I want to see a record of your observations.

3. Based on your observations, write a conclusion. What does your data tell you? What did you learn from your experimental results?

4. What kind of relationships did you find between biotic and abiotic factors? 5. Do your findings support your hypothesis? Why or why not? 6. If you were to do this again, what would you change? Why?

7. What additional experiments could be performed?

Please, send me the information requested in analysis questions A-G.

GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!

### 01.06 Nonverbal Communication: Differences in Males/Females Behavior

 Women's and Men's Nonverbal Behavior Listeners know that nonverbal use of space, posture, movement, touch, eye contact and facial expression can also communicate power or powerlessness, dominance or submission. As we recall the elements of nonverbal communication, listening to nonverbal messages, we can consider the ways women and men use each and which are the result of culture. Space can indicate power. In our culture women and people of lower status take up less space then men and people of higher status. Women are taught to keep the knees together, cross the legs at the ankle or knee, keep the elbows near the body and hold belongings on the lap. Men, on the other hand, habitually take up space by sprawling and spreading out their belongings. Height can also show power. The person who stands over the one who is seated communicates power. Men are generally taller than women, and thus appear to have more power. (Tall women, however, have not learned to use their height in a powerful way.) Smiling can show happiness, appeasement or submission. Dominant members of a hierarchy smile less than submissive members. Perceptive listeners are aware that women smile more frequently and for longer duration than men, but this does not signal happiness--it is a communication style. Eye contact is also used more often and for longer duration by women when they listen. They avert their eyes more often when looked at. Listeners must note the context in which eye contact is experienced. While eye contact may signal listening or giving respect, prolonged eye contact can deliver a threat or a sexual invitation. Nodding (and sometimes saying "yes" while nodding) is often employed by women listeners to mean, "I am listening." Men often presume this means agreement, because to them, silence means, "I am listening and agreeing." As interesting as it is to speculate on what women and men signal by certain nonverbal cues, we must take care in interpreting them.

### 01.06 Self-Employment & Entrepreneurs (Financial Literacy)

 Identify the risks and rewards of entrepreneurship and self-employment.

Many artisans and artists are self-employed: Image from Wikimedia Commons, Joe Mabel, Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported BACKGROUND

Another way to earn money besides working for others is to be an “entrepreneur”--to be your own boss and own your own business. This can be full-time or part-time. Entrepreneurs cannot set any wage they want. They must make sufficient profit to pay their own wages and others as well. Nonetheless, many entrepreneurs earn far more than if they worked for someone else. But some make NO profit and incur great debt. So owning a business has risks AND rewards. Anyone can be an entrepreneur, including students, parents, Tiff or Cameron, or someone that works full-time in a regular job. Many young people have a business on the side to bring in extra cash. It often begins when a person identifies some skill they have that fills other people's needs. Entrepreneurs have special skills, interests, or experience in providing a service or product others are willing to pay for.

I highly recommend that you click on the link above before continuing.

You can watch the video that is under the PRESENTATION tab or work through the entire lesson.

Guided Practice
After watching the video try these problems. The worked solutions follow.

Solve the following and graph each solution:

Example 1: 5 + 4b < 21

Example 2: 3x + 4(6 - x) < 2

Example 3: 8z - 6 < 3z + 12

Example 4: 5(-3 + d) ≤ 3(3d - 2)

Solve the following and graph each solution:

Example 1: 5 + 4b < 21

Step 1: Subtract 5 from both sides:

4b < 16

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4:

b < 4

Example 2: 3x + 4(6 - x) < 2

Step 1: Clear the parentheses:

3x + 24 - 4x < 2

Step 2: Collect like terms:

-x + 24 < 2

Subtract 24 from both sides:

-x < -22

Step 3: Multiply each side by -1:

Example 3: 8z - 6 < 3z + 12

Step 1: Add 6 to both sides:

8z < 3z + 18

Step 2: Subtract 3z from both sides:

5z < 18

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5:

z < $\fn_phv \frac{18}{5}$

Example 4: 5(-3 + d) ≤ 3(3d - 2)

Step 1: Clear the parentheses:

-15 + 5d ≤ 9d - 6

Step 2: Add 15 to both sides:

5d ≤ 9d + 9

Step 3: Subtract 9d from both sides:

-4d ≤ 9

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4:

d ≥ $\fn_phv -\frac{9}{4}$

 Investigate the events leading to the Revolutionary War.

In this section you will:

President George Washington, first President of the United States: Gilbert Stuart, 1797, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

• Identify the causes of tension between the colonists and the British Government that led to the American Revolutionary War.

Lesson

In history there often seems to be a series of unfortunate events that lead to a huge, explosive event.  The Revolutionary War is no different.  Let’s take a look at the unfortunate events;

1. Colonization: this is really a more indirect event.  As many of the states were colonized there wasn’t really a long term plan to how they were going to interact with the British government.  This lack of planning is the unfortunate event. The colonists had years to grow and as they expanded and became more independent (the British government basically let them do their thing as long as money was coming in.)  This independence lead to a desire for more rights. You’ve read it before, but these years of independence are known in history as salutary neglect.
2. Enlightenment: In the 1700s Europe was being enlightened.  Although the Enlightenment had its roots in France, the ideas spread like a worldwide wildfire.  The scientific discoveries of Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton made people begin to look at the world around them for change.  Then the ideas of men like John Locke, Montesquieu, Rousseau, Thomas Hobbes, and even Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson; inspired the colonists as well as many others throughout the world to look around them and question their situation and government. You’ll read more about their ideas later, as we discuss the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
3. French and Indian War: Also known as the Seven Years’ War (outside of the US).  This war became a huge expense for the British as they battled for land both in Europe and in the Americas.  The French didn’t settle in Canada as rapidly as the British did in the American Colonies, but they did treat the Natives more hospitably than the British colonists did.  The major area of dispute in the colonies was the Ohio River valley. When the French built Fort Duquesne, the Virginians, who had promised that land to others, sent a militia to kick the French out. The French defeated the colonists at the first battle led by then 22 year old George Washington.  The British sent Edward Braddock to assist the colonists and he and Washington tried again but were ambushed by French soldiers and Native American combatants; the British fled. (An interesting side-note; Washington, startled by the weakness of the British attempted to rally the troops and defeat the French.  In the process two horses were shot from beneath him along with four bullets blowing through his coat.  He obviously survived.)  The king George II sent William Pitt to lead the armies.  Pitt began to win some battles and because of that the British were able to gain some Native American allies, the Iroquois. After a series of victories, including the defeat at Quebec, the British were victorious and at the Treaty of Paris in 1763, gained most of Canada along with all the land east of the Mississippi.  This costly war made the British look at the role the colonies played and decided that there were enough people benefitting from the protection and wealth of Britain that they needed to pay their dues.
4. Proclamation of 1763: A document signed by the British representatives to the American Colonies, with Pontiac, the Native American leader. This document said that the colonists would not cross the Appalachian Mountains.  This angered the colonists because they wanted to expand and had planned to do so across the mountains.  It said to them that there was dis-connect between them and the British government.
5. George Grenville:  King George III’s prime minister who, in his attempt to repay the debts of the British, began to crack down on trade first to Massachusetts and then to all of the colonies. His ideas and actions, which included searching ships suspected to contain smuggled goods, angered the colonists.
6. Sugar Act:  1764, prompted by Grenville.  The act cut the duty (tax) on molasses made outside of the colonies, hoping they would pay the tax instead of smuggling. (They were smuggling because they weren’t allowed to buy goods from other countries unless they’d gone through Britain.) The act added duties on items that had not previously been taxed. Lastly this the court that would try those who had gone against the act, would be a British court instead of a colonial court.  It is after this act was passed that the term “No taxation without representation,” is first heard.
7. Stamp Act: 1765, the tax was placed on many printed documents.  The verification the tax was paid came in the form of a stamp on the document, hence “Stamp Act”.  The Sons of Liberty was formed in reaction and protest to this law. Many merchants boycotted until the act was repealed, they were successful in 1766.
8. Townshend Acts: 1767, taxed goods imported from Britain, including lead, glass, paper, paint and tea.  Again they boycotted the act hoping to get the act repealed.  The British were just looking to make money, while the colonists were looking to have a say in what was going on.
9. Boston Massacre: Tensions between the colonists and the British soldiers grew and came to a head outside the Boston Customs House.  Colonists upset by the Townshend Acts began to taunt the soldiers and the soldiers opened fire and killed five colonists.
10. Boston Tea Party: The event which is known as both famous and infamous.  It was a reaction to the Tea Act and the Tea Act was a result of the repeal of the Townshend Acts and an attempt to save the British East India Company.  The act made it so that only the East India Company could sell tea to the colonists, but it was at a cheaper price. On December 16, 1773 the “Indians” of the tea party dumped 18,000 pounds of tea into the harbor.
11. Intolerable Acts: The King was furious and asked parliament to do something.  These acts; shut down Boston harbor, required the quartering of soldiers, and a general was appointed the governor of Massachusetts.  General Thomas Gage put Boston under martial law.
12. First Continental Congress: In reaction to the Intolerable Acts, 56 delegates met in Philidelphia and drew up a declaration that said they had the rights to run their own affairs, and if the British used force against them they would fight back.

Our series of unfortunate events exploded with the first Battle of the Revolution; Lexington and Concord, which is the beginning of the Revolutionary war

### 01.06.01 Darwin's Finches (Biology)

 teacher-scored 10 points possible 120 minutes

Summary:

The theory of evolution consists of the following four major points:

1. Variation exists within the genes of every species (the result of random mutation).

2. In a particular environment, some individuals of a species are better suited for survival, so   leave more offspring (natural selection).

3. Over time, change within species leads to the replacement of old species by new species as less successful species become extinct.

4. There is clear evidence from fossils and many other sources that the species now on Earth have evolved (descended) from ancestral forms that are extinct (evolution).

2. How did the different islands play a role in the diversity of the finches?

3. Why do you think scientists believe that the finches came from one species?

4. When would the importance of different beaks be important for the finches' survival?

5. What is your opinion about the variation in the sizes of the birds? How could one species be so much smaller or larger than another if they all came from one original species?

6. After reading the information below, write a paragraph explaining how diversity helps us to understand evolution.

**Assignment 01.06.01: Using ¿Cómo? and ¿Qué?**: You know the drill, find the button: and click on it!

 Businesses And Organizations Will Often Analyze Data To Find Cause-And-Effect Relationships Example 1 A business collecting sales data may analyze buying trends. This information can be used to adjust their supply orders or advertised sales. Candy Sales Increase During The Month of October Example 2 An organization studying wild animal populations will collect data to look for cause-and-effect relationships. A scatter plot can be used to see if a pattern exists for a given a set of data Data Does Not Always Show A Pattern If you were to gather data from people leaving the grocery store. Their height (in inches) would not correlate with how much money they spent. When Points are randomly scattered about... There is no correlation between the items being graphed. Sometimes Data Will Have A Perfect Correlation All points that solve a linear equation have a perfect correlation. If a company has a daily cost equation of C = 20X + 55, the cost of producing X amount of items is exactly C. Correlation Patterns When a correlation pattern exists, the correlation can be described as: A strong correlation - if the values are fairly tight in following the pattern A weak correlation - if the values are more widely scattered. A correlation can also be described as: Positive- if the values increase from left to right. Negative- if the values decrease from left to right. Correlation Measurements The stronger the correlation, the better it will predict results. I. Linear Regression Is A Method For Finding The Best-Fit Line For A Given Set Of Data Creating a best-fit line While formulas exist for creating a best-fit line, you can simply estimate where to draw a line with a slope that would best fit the middle of all the points. Correlation Coefficients While a correlation explains how tightly a set of points follows a pattern, a correlation coefficient measures how closely the points follow the regression line. This coefficient is usually denoted by the letter r Correlation Patterns If the coefficient r = 0 there is no correlation. If r = 1 that shows a perfect positive correlation. If r = -1 that shows a perfect negative correlation. The closer the coefficient is to 1 or -1 the stronger the correlation. II.

The Following Is A Demonstration Of How To Use These Steps **GAS PRICE** Use the average price of gas from years past to estimate the price of gas in the future. The Process Of Using Linear Regression To Analyze Data Collect the data a. Identify the data to be analyzed The average gas price from the years 1973 to 2003 b. Determine how to collect the data Online data from the internet c. Create a table to record the data in See the next page The Average Price Of A Gallon of Gas From 1973 to 2003 Make A Scatter Plot From The Data a. Identify the dependent and independent variables The independent X variable is the year. The dependent Y variable is the average gas price b. Identify the largest and smallest values The X values go from 1973 to 2003. the Y values go from .39 to 1.59 c. Determine how to mark the X and Y axis The X axis will go from 1970 to 2005 and increment by 7. The Y axis will go from 0 to 2.0 and increment by .5 d. Graph your pairs of points See the next page Graphing The Year Verses The Price Look for a correlation pattern Do The Points Follow A General Pattern? Do The Points Increase Or Decrease From Left To Right? Are The Points Fairly Tight In Their Grouping Or Are They Scattered? Fit the data with a regression line a. Estimate where a best-fit line could be drawn to go through the middle of all the points b. See if this line be drawn through two points in which the X and Y values can easily be determined Regression Line Make equation for the line Creating An Linear Equation From The Two Points (1991, 1.14) and (1971, 0.36) Find the slope using two points Use the slope and one of the points in the point-slope equation. Simplify the equation Calculate the correlation coefficient This data was graphed and calculated at: http://illuminations.nctm.org/ActivityDetail.aspx?ID=146 Use the equation to predict outcomes What should the average gas price be for 2008? Y = 80.32 - 78.5 Y = 80.32 - 78.5 Y = 1.82 IV. Check The Logic Of The Answer You should always think about the answers you get from the calculation to see if they make sense. The answer is: Y = 1.82 The average gas price for 2008 is not $1.82. What went wrong? The Sample Was Not A Good Representation Of Reality In this case, we didn't use enough data. As gas prices have risen dramatically lately, our sample was not large enough. We should include gas prices through 2007. If we estimate the average gas price of 2005 to be 3. and the average gas price of 2007 to be 3.5, the data actually curves. We will have to fit the data with a different regression. To Use An Equation To Predict new Outcomes, The Regression Sample Needs To Be An Accurate Representation Of The Actual Data Set! ### 01.06.01 Planning a Birthday Party, Revisited (Math I)  Do you remember Ashley? I hope so. She wanted to spend her birthday at the water park and needed to determine how much it would cost. We noted that it is unlikely that Ashley's mother will pay for an unlimited number of friends. It is more likely that she will be willing to pay a certain amount, and Ashley will then need to determine how many people she can invite with that limit. In lesson 3 we used a data table and a graph to solve her problem. These worked well enough, but you may not wish to graph every possible data point to find the specific solution you need. It would be great if we could just solve the problem by manipulating the terms in the same way as we did with the equations in lessons 4 and 5. Guess what? We can! When solving a problem that involves both addition/subtraction and multiplication/division, we follow the same rules as we do for solving a problem that only involves one or the other. We just need to follow both sets of rules. We also must apply the order of operations, and other properties of arithmetic that we do when evaluating or simplifying an expression. Consider Ashley's problem. We had previously determined that it could be described by the inequality c ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) + $100, (eq. 1) where c is the total cost Ashley's mother is willing to pay, and p is the total number of people. We had left it in this form, rather than simplifying. When written in this form, the parts of the equation more clearly represented the original problem. However, to solve this, the first thing we want to do is simplify the inequality. Start by distributing the factor ($17 per person) through the factor (p - 5 people), c ≥ ($17 per person) p – ($17 per person)(5 people) + $100 (eq. 2) c ≥ ($17 per person) p – $85 +$100. (eq. 2a) Next add like terms, in particular add the second and third term, c ≥ ($17 per person) p +$15. (eq. 3) That is simplified enough. Now we can begin solving for p. In this equation, p is multiplied by the factor ($17 per person). Also, the term that includes p is added to the term ($15). To remove the factor ($17 per person), we need to multiply by the multiplicative inverse. The multiplicative inverse is the reciprocal of ($17 per person). To remove the term ($15) we need to add the additive inverse. The additive inverse is -$15. The other thing we need to remember is that we need to do to the right-hand side of the equation whatever we do to the left-hand side. Now, which do you want to do first? It seems less complicated to start by adding the additive inverse. In other words, add -$15 to both sides, c + (-$15) ≥ ($17 per person) p +$15 + (-$15) (eq. 4) c –$15 ≥ ($17 per person) p +$15 – $15 (eq. 4a) c –$15 ≥ ($17 per person) p. (eq. 4b) Next, multiply by the multiplicative inverse. This means we want to multiply by (eq. 5) (eq. 5a) And finally, reverse the order of the equation, (eq. 5b) We could separate this into 2 terms, but since 17 is not a “nice” denominator, that doesn't really improve the “look” of the equation, so let's just keep equation 5b. Notice the direction of the inequality reversed when we reordered the equation. When solving an inequality, it is important to understand the meaning of the inequality. The expression including the number of people is less than or equal to the expression involving the cost. If we had multiplied by a negative number, we would also have needed to reverse the inequality. Okay, back to the inequality. First, check the units. c has units of dollars. 15 also has units of dollars. These terms are added, so they should have the same units – check. The term has units of dollars divided by dollars per person. Remember that when we divide this is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal? This is true for units as well as for numbers and symbols. Therefore, the units are dollars over dollars times people. This simplifies to people. The units for p are people. These expressions must also have the same units – check. Now that we have solved for p, we can enter whatever limit Ashley's mom set. If she set a limit of$200 we would find (eq. 5b) (eq. 6) (eq. 6a) p ≤ $10.8823.... (eq. 6b) Of course, we cannot have 0.88 of a person, so we will round down. Therefore, Ashley can have up to 10 people at her birthday party. Do you remember Ashley? I hope so. She wanted to spend her birthday at the water park and needed to determine how much it would cost. We noted that it is unlikely that Ashley's mother will pay for an unlimited number of friends. It is more likely that she will be willing to pay a certain amount, and Ashley will then need to determine how many people she can invite with that limit. In lesson 3 we used a data table and a graph to solve her problem. These worked well enough, but you may not wish to graph every possible data point to find the specific solution you need. It would be great if we could just solve the problem by manipulating the terms in the same way as we did with the equations in lessons 4 and 5. Guess what? We can! When solving a problem that involves both addition/subtraction and multiplication/division, we follow the same rules as we do for solving a problem that only involves one or the other. We just need to follow both sets of rules. We also must apply the order of operations, and other properties of arithmetic that we do when evaluating or simplifying an expression. Consider Ashley's problem. We had previously determined that it could be described by the inequality c ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) + $100, (eq. 1) where c is the total cost Ashley's mother is willing to pay, and p is the total number of people. We had left it in this form, rather than simplifying. When written in this form, the parts of the equation more clearly represented the original problem. However, to solve this, the first thing we want to do is simplify the inequality. Start by distributing the factor ($17 per person) through the factor (p - 5 people), c ≥ ($17 per person) p – ($17 per person)(5 people) + $100 (eq. 2) c ≥ ($17 per person) p – $85 +$100. (eq. 2a) Next add like terms, in particular add the second and third term, c ≥ ($17 per person) p +$15. (eq. 3) That is simplified enough. Now we can begin solving for p. In this equation, p is multiplied by the factor ($17 per person). Also, the term that includes p is added to the term ($15). To remove the factor ($17 per person), we need to multiply by the multiplicative inverse. The multiplicative inverse is the reciprocal of ($17 per person). To remove the term ($15) we need to add the additive inverse. The additive inverse is -$15. The other thing we need to remember is that we need to do to the right-hand side of the equation whatever we do to the left-hand side. Now, which do you want to do first? It seems less complicated to start by adding the additive inverse. In other words, add -$15 to both sides, c + (-$15) ≥ ($17 per person) p +$15 + (-$15) (eq. 4) c –$15 ≥ ($17 per person) p +$15 – $15 (eq. 4a) c –$15 ≥ ($17 per person) p. (eq. 4b) Next, multiply by the multiplicative inverse. This means we want to multiply by (eq. 5) (eq. 5a) And finally, reverse the order of the equation, (eq. 5b) We could separate this into 2 terms, but since 17 is not a “nice” denominator, that doesn't really improve the “look” of the equation, so let's just keep equation 5b. Notice the direction of the inequality reversed when we reordered the equation. When solving an inequality, it is important to understand the meaning of the inequality. The expression including the number of people is less than or equal to the expression involving the cost. If we had multiplied by a negative number, we would also have needed to reverse the inequality. Okay, back to the inequality. First, check the units. c has units of dollars. 15 also has units of dollars. These terms are added, so they should have the same units – check. The term has units of dollars divided by dollars per person. Remember that when we divide this is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal? This is true for units as well as for numbers and symbols. Therefore, the units are dollars over dollars times people. This simplifies to people. The units for p are people. These expressions must also have the same units – check. Now that we have solved for p, we can enter whatever limit Ashley's mom set. If she set a limit of$200 we would find (eq. 5b) (eq. 6) (eq. 6a) p ≤ $10.8823.... (eq. 6b) Of course, we cannot have 0.88 of a person, so we will round down. Therefore, Ashley can have up to 10 people at her birthday party. ### 01.06.01 Quarter One Final (Algebra II - New)  teacher-scored 10 points possible 60 minutes ### 01.06.02 - Virtual Peppered Moth - LAB (Biology)  URL 1 – Peppered Moths and Melanismhttp://darwin200.christs.cam.ac.uk/pages/index.php?page_id=g...URL 2 – Peppered Moths, Black and White (This URL is a .swf and will not work on an ipad.)http://peppermoths.weebly.com/ ### 01.06.02 - Virtual Peppered Moth - Pre Lab (Biology)  teacher-scored 10 points possible 30 minutes Summary: Charles Darwin gathered a large collection of facts to support the theory of evolution by natural selection. One problem that he ran into was the inability to persuade people of his theory. All of the specimens he studied had a long life cycle and evolved over hundreds of years. He needed a specimen that had a short life cycle. A great example of natural selection can be seen in the peppered moth, Biston betularia. This moth has a short life cycle, making it easier to study natural selection. Unfortunately, Darwin didn’t realize natural selection was happening among smaller specimens, like the peppered moth, which were found in his home country of England. ​Instructional Procedures: Copy all information below between the lines of asterisks, including the lesson number, revision date and all questions into a word document.

That is fine. However, it would also have been okay to solve the multiplication part first followed by the addition part. Consider the following. The original simplified inequality was c ≥ ($17 per person) p + $15. (eq. 3) We wish to solve this inequality for p. Instead of adding -$15 as the first step, we could multiply by (eq. 7) Distribute the coefficient through the right-hand side (eq. 7a) Then simplify (eq. 7b) Now we can isolate p by adding to both sides (eq. 8) Combine the terms on the left over the common denominator, (eq. 5a) Reverse the order of the equation, and we again have equation 5b, Two different techniques, same answer. Hmm, didn't we say something about this before.... So, there you go.

That is fine, too. It will require you to take more steps in solving, but the overall process is the same. Recall equation 1, c ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) + $100. (eq. 1) When working with an unsimplified problem, you are still allowed to perform the steps in many different orders. You must remember to multiply/divide the entire expression on each side, and add or subtract terms from the entire expression. However, sometimes this results in an equation that is not very clean initially. People (students, teachers, mathematicians) are more likely to make algebra errors if the equation is complicated. Therefore, for a non-simplified expression, there really is a best order to solve it. The best order to solve a non-simplified equation is to work from the outside in. This means that we do things in the reverse order from the order of operations we would use to evaluate the expression. So, for the sake of discussion, if you knew p, how would you evaluate the expression on the right-hand side of equation 1? The first thing you would do is subtract 5 people from p. Second, you would multiply that value by$17 per person. Finally, you would add $100. Okay? So to solve for p, we work backwards. This means we start by removing the term$100. To do this, we need to add -$100 to both sides. This is the same as subtracting$100 from both sides. c – $100 ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) + $100 –$100. (eq. 9) c – $100 ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) (eq. 9a) The second step is to remove the factor $17 per person. To do this, we need to multiply both sides by This is the same as dividing both sides by$17 per person. (eq. 10) (eq. 10a) The final step is to remove the term -5 people. To do this we need to add 5 people to both sides. (eq. 11) (eq. 11a) And as before, we can reverse the order of the inequality, (eq. 11b) At this point, you may notice that equation 11b does not look exactly like equation 5b. Yet I claim it is the same. What's the deal? We need to combine the terms on the right-hand side. In order to do this, we need to find a common denominator. The denominator of the first term is $17 per person. The denominator of the second term is 1. The least common multiple for these numbers is$17 per person. That is already the denominator of the first term, so we do not need to change the second term. If we multiply 1 by $17 per person, we will get$17 per person. Therefore, we need to multiply the denominator of 5 people by $17 per person. We cannot do that and still have the same number. What we can do is multiply 5 people by any version of 1 we choose. How about That is a valid version of 1. (eq. 12) Now simplify this, (eq. 12a) (eq. 12b) Finally, we can add the terms together, (eq. 13) (eq. 5b) Now is it clear that these are the same equation? Awesome :) Here is a problem for you to think about. Which technique did you prefer? Simplifying the expression initially, then solving for the desired quantity? Or solving for the desired quantity without simplifying the expression? Be prepared to justify your answer. Now, what if you didn't want to take the time to simplify equation 1 before solving for p? That is fine, too. It will require you to take more steps in solving, but the overall process is the same. Recall equation 1, c ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) + $100.

To do this, we need to add -$100 to both sides. This is the same as subtracting$100 from both sides. c – $100 ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) + $100 –$100. (eq. 9) c – $100 ≥ ($17 per person)(p – 5 people) (eq. 9a) The second step is to remove the factor $17 per person. To do this, we need to multiply both sides by This is the same as dividing both sides by$17 per person. (eq. 10) (eq. 10a) The final step is to remove the term -5 people.

Or solving for the desired quantity without simplifying the expression? Be prepared to justify your answer. ### 01.06.04 Babysitting Income, Revisited (Math I)  You should also recall Jeremy. He has a job babysitting for his neighbors 15 hours a month. If he is unavailable, his sister will fill in for him, but he has to pay her. Jeremy also has a couple of bills he needs to pay each month. Jeremy's problem was rather serious. If he asked his sister to babysit for him too often, he would be losing money each month. He needs to make sure that he doesn't have his sister fill in for him more often than he can afford. Jeremy had found the following equation to describe his monthly income: i =$65 – ($7 per hour)(h), (eq. 14) where i was his net income, and h was the number of hours his sister worked for him. Jeremy needs to make sure that he doesn't end up with a negative income. Therefore, he needs to solve this equation for the number of hours his sister works. The term that includes h is negative. Therefore, we may wish to start this problem by adding ($7 per hour)(h) to both sides of the equation. i + ($7 per hour)(h) =$65 – ($7 per hour)(h) + ($7 per hour)(h), (eq. 15) i + ($7 per hour)(h) =$65. (eq. 15a) Using the method of working from the outside in, the next step would be to add -i to both sides of the equation, aka subtract i, i – i + ($7 per hour)(h) =$65 – i, (eq. 16) ($7 per hour)(h) =$65 – i. (eq. 16a) Next we need to remove the coefficient ($7 per hour). We do this by multiplying by or dividing by$7 per hour, (eq. 17) (eq. 17a) Again, we should check the units. i has unit of dollars. $65 also has units of dollars. These terms are added. Therefore these units should be the same. They are. h has units of hours. has units of dollars per dollars per hour. This simplifies to (dollars)(hours/dollar), which equals hours. This should have the same units as h, which it does, so we are good as far as units go. Now that Jeremy has solved this problem for h in general, he can use this equation to determine the maximum number of hours his sister can work for him, for whichever income he wants. However, since the original concern was to not have a negative income, we may as well solve this for i = 0. (eq. 17a) (eq. 18) (eq. 18a) h = 9.2857.... hours (eq. 18b) h ≈ 9.3 hours (eq. 18c) Therefore, if Jeremy doesn't want to go into dept, he can't have his sister fill in for him for more than about 9.3 hours each month. By the way, this is more or less the answer we estimated from our graph in lesson 3. What if Jeremy needs$50 to buy concert tickets? What is the maximum hours that his sister can work for him? We already have this solved for h, so we just need to enter the numbers. This is the advantage of solving the problem with variables initially. We don't need to go back and resolve it every time we want to change the numbers. (eq. 17a) (eq. 19) (eq. 19a) h = 2.1428.... hours (eq. 19b) h ≈ 2 hours (eq. 19c) This means that if Jeremy wants to buy those tickets, he needs to make sure that he doesn't double book for more than 2 hours this month. All right, do you think you can do this on your own? You should also recall Jeremy. He has a job babysitting for his neighbors 15 hours a month. If he is unavailable, his sister will fill in for him, but he has to pay her. Jeremy also has a couple of bills he needs to pay each month. Jeremy's problem was rather serious.

Therefore, we may wish to start this problem by adding ($7 per hour)(h) to both sides of the equation. i + ($7 per hour)(h) = $65 – ($7 per hour)(h) + ($7 per hour)(h), (eq. 15) i + ($7 per hour)(h) = $65. (eq. 15a) Using the method of working from the outside in, the next step would be to add -i to both sides of the equation, aka subtract i, i – i + ($7 per hour)(h) = $65 – i, (eq. 16) ($7 per hour)(h) = $65 – i.

As the client, you are spelling out your objectives and expectations and defining a scope of work when you issue one. You're also committing to a concrete expression that can be revisited as a project moves forward. It's an honest way to keep everyone honest. If the brief raises questions, all the better. Questions early are better than questions late. Why provide a design brief? The purpose of the brief is to get everyone started with a common understanding of what's to be accomplished. It gives direction and serves as a benchmark against which to test concepts and execution as you move through a project. Some designers provide clients with their own set of questions. Even so, the ultimate responsibility for defining goals and objectives and identifying audience and context lies with the client. Another benefit of the design brief is the clarity it provides you as the client about why you're embarking on a project. If you don't know why, you can't possibly hope to achieve anything worthwhile. Nor are you likely to get your company behind your project. A brief can be as valuable internally as it is externally. If you present it to the people within the company most directly affected by whatever is being produced, you not only elicit valuable input, but also pave the way for their buy-in. When you think about it, the last thing you want is for your project to be a test of the designer's skills. Your responsibility is to help the design firm do the best work it can. That's why you hired the firm. And why you give it a brief. Budgeting and managing the process If the briefing effort is thorough, budgeting and managing a project is easier. It takes two to budget and manage a design project: the client and the designer. The most successful collaborations are always the ones where all the information is on the table and expectations are in the open from the outset. Design costs money. As one very seasoned and gifted designer says, "There is always a budget," whether it is revealed to the design team or not. Clients often are hesitant to announce how much they have to spend for fear that if they do, the designer will design to that number when a different solution for less money might otherwise have been reached. This is a reasonable concern and yet, it's as risky to design in a budgetary vacuum as it is to design without a goal. If your utility vehicle budget stops at four cylinders, four gears and a radio, there's no point in looking at Range Rovers. If you have$100,000 to spend and you'd really like to dedicate $15,000 of it to something else, giving the design team that knowledge helps everyone. Then you won't get something that costs$110,000 that you want but cannot pay for. The trust factor is the 800-pound gorilla in the budgeting phase. Without trust, there isn't a basis for working together.

Assignment for the Design Brief
You are a engineer working for a design firm that develops Mouse Trap Cars. Creating the design brief does not mean building the project but to address the issues and design possibilities that will come later.
Use a google search for "Mouse Trap Cars"

The presentation is for the upper management in your company. Use a multimedia program (like powerpoint )to develop a 10 minute concise viewpoint of your research to present your idea. Include pictures and facts and why you are recommending it. Make sure you list the benefits and the budget to build the Mouse Trap Cars
submit the powerpoint.

A ten minute presentation would usually contain around 15 to 30 slides

### 02.01.06 Climate Maps- Continents (World Geography)

 teacher-scored 70 points possible 60 minutes

The seven continents of the world have many different climates. In this assignment you will put, on a map of the world (or map of each continent), the climates that each continent has. It will be important for you to pay attention to the different climates that is located on each continent. Climate is the average weather of a certain area over a long period of time. Each continent has many different climates because of latitude, elevation, landforms, closeness to an ocean or large body of water. For example: the climate of the Wasatch front (Ogden to Provo) is cold winters, and hot summers. Most of the precipitation arrives in the winter and spring. The summers and falls are generally dry. If you take someplace that has a similar latitude as the Wasatch front you will find that the climate can change because of the water and elevation factors. For example, San Francisco is about the same latitude as Salt Lake City. Only 3 degrees difference in latitude but because San Francisco is by the ocean and at sea level, it has a completely different climate. It has moderate winters and cool summers. Refer to the charts below for comparison.

San Francisco

Mean 28° 34° 42° 50° 58° 68° 78° 76° 65° 54° 41° 30°

Here you can see that the climate in San Francisco is milder than the climate in Salt Lake City.

Copy the outline maps and then click on the link for the climates of the world. Color each continent according to the climates that are there. Make sure you put a KEY on your map(s).

Outline maps: http://www.eduplace.com/ss/maps/ Click on the map you are going to do. Either the world or on each continent.

Climate map of the world: http://www.allcountries.org/maps/world_climate_maps.html

NOTE: you may have trouble attaching all of the maps. One student who was successful at doing so told me the following "You asked how I could fit so many maps into my submission. First, I scanned them at a low resolution and then I zipped them using WinZip into one file and uploaded that one file." Hope that helps. If not, send the maps that won't fit to me through e-mail.
You may also find this information from a fellow student who did an awesome job on this assignment helpful:
"You asked how I made my climate maps for assignment 2.6. Once I opened up a map on the site you gave us, I hit the screen print button at the top of my keyboard. I then opened up the Microsoft Paint application and hit Edit then Paste. The screen print came up and I was then able to crop the image down so I was just viewing the map. (To crop, I outlined the area I wanted to keep in the image with the flashing dotted lines used for cropping, then hit Image then Crop). Then I just painted in the colors to match the colored climate map on the website. To insert the keys, I made separate images on Paint with just the colored blocks I used in each map. The nice thing about using powerpoint is that I am able to insert multiple images into each slide. So I just matched the keys with the corresponding map and then inserted text boxes for all of the text

### 02.04 Online skills Introduction to the Moodle platform - Study Skills

We’ll review some basic study skills that you may be using already in the traditional classroom. However, due to the unique environment of learning online, you will definitely want to make sure you use ALL these strategies.

In a traditional classroom, there are many activities that help you learn: assignments, reading, class discussions, etc. Online, you are somewhat left with just reading and assignments. READING becomes really important to be able to learn and succeed in an online class. If you only opened your textbook when you had to…or skimmed through it looking for an answer, not really ‘reading’…then you’ll need to make a change in your habits for online courses. There are ways to read the material, whether online or in a text that can help you remember and learn. One thing that is a MUST is to think about what you are reading as you go. It kind of takes the place of class discussions in a regular classroom except that you are coming up with all the comments by yourself in your head.

• Relate the new information you just read about to something that you already learned. For instance, have you ever seen the movie Stand and Deliver? At one point, a teacher who really wants a student to succeed in a chemistry class explains how a cell works is like being a member of the ‘hood’, something that the student can relate to.
• Put the information you’ve read into your own words, in several different ways so it will have more meaning to you
• Try to think of ways this new information is relevant or meaningful to your life or the world in general.
• Ask questions. Look at the information from different points of view. Be the ‘antagonist’…is it possible the information could be wrong? Etc.
• Who is saying it and why? It may surprise you to realize that there is a LOT of false information on the Internet because anybody can post anything they want. That is true even for Wikipedia…one of the most popular information websites in use. So you’ll want to check and see who the author is and if other websites agree with the information being presented.
• What perspective is the information from? Just imagine the different perspectives you could get about the Ku Klux Klan by reading the perspective of a KKK member versus an African American person who had a relative killed in a KKK raid? You know the story of little Red riding hood is from Red’s perspective right? Have you ever read the wolf’s perspective? Just for fun, you can read it on one of the links below.

Another thing that is a MUST is to take notes as you read. It’s like taking notes while a teacher is teaching in class, you can even read out loud if it helps you to learn and remember the material. Reading from the computer screen is generally hard on your eyes and results in blurring, eyestrain and visual fatigue. So limit how much time you read on screen or print out what you read if you need to. Be careful when scrolling down the screen to make sure that you don’t miss passages. When you take notes as you read, you will create your own study guide for the quizzes and proctored final…isn’t that a great idea?

To learn more about effective reading and note taking strategies, you will be visiting several websites. Take notes as you go, because there is a quiz for this section.

### 03.06 Critical Movie Review (English 11)

 teacher-scored 13 points possible 40 minutes

Critical Viewing Movie Review

Choose a movie (or live play or musical) that fits with the quarter theme (love and relationships) and write a one page response to that viewing.

Suggested movies for this quarter: Ever After, Tangled, Twilight, Love Story, Westside Story, The Great Gatsby, Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing

*Note: You are not restricted to any of these titles. Any movie that fits within the theme of the quarter will work.

If you are not sure if a movie fits with the theme, just send me a message. Honestly, I don't watch many movies, so I am not really sure what is out there--use your best judgement.

You will then present your response in one of two ways: use Google Voice (801-317-8401, In the message include:  your name, quarter, assignment #, and the assignment.  Also, submit a comment through Canvas with the date and time you left the message) to record your response, OR make a short video of your response and submit through Canvas. It is best to have your response written out and practice it before making the phone call or final video.

Respond to the following questions in your review:

1895 illustration for Pride and Prejudice: C. E. Brock, public domain via Wikimedia Commons

1. How does this movie tie into the quarter theme of Love and Relationships?

2. What is the message or theme of the movie?

3. What obstacles did the protagonist have to overcome?

4. What rating (out of five stars) would you give this movie? Why?

If you use Google Voice, you can leave up to a three-minute message. Use the questions to guide your response and write out your review in detail before completing the assignment. In the assignment submission box, simply make a note of the day and time you recorded your message.

If you make a video, you can upload it there as well. The video does not have to be anything super elaborate; it can be just you talking to the camera and answering the questions about the movie.

Scoring Rubric

8 Points - Student responds to each question clearly and adequately.

5 Points - Student is well-spoken during the presentation; it is clear that he or she has practiced.

Pacing: complete this by the end of Week 4 of your enrollment date for this class.

### 03.06 Lesson 3F: Simple Yes/No Questions (Spanish I)

Lesson 3F
Simple Yes/No Questions

[A copy of this lesson is available in a PDF file!! If you prefer to use this type of document, just click on the following link to complete this lesson: SpI_Lesson3F]

In the first two units, you were introduced to some of the most common words used to ask questions in Spanish. Do you remember these words: “¿Cómo? – How? and ¿Qué? – What?”(Lesson 1F), “¿Quién? – Who?”(Lesson 1J), “¿Cuándo? – When? and ¿Cuántos(as) – How many?”(Lesson 2E), and “¿Dónde? – Where?”(Lesson 2I)? If not, please review these lessons before continuing this lesson.

(¡¡Ojo!! – I really like the way the Spanish language has the same rule for exclamation and question marks as they have for quotes and parenthesis … using a mark to begin the exclamation or question as well as at the end. It makes reading Spanish much easier, with fewer surprises!!)

Yes or No questions: Most information questions are formed using question words, but there are times when asking a question is as simple as raising the pitch in your voice at the end of a sentence. The rising and falling of the pitch of your voice as you speak is called intonation. When a sentence, in either English or Spanish, is spoken with a rising intonation at the end of the sentence, it changes the sentence from a statement to a question. This simple question can only be answered with a “yes” or “no” response. Let’s look at a few examples:

To make a question negative: Making a question negative follows the same form as making a statement negative, just put the word “no” before the verb!!

Put the verb first: Switching the subject and verb is also an easy way to make a statement a question. You still will need to raise the pitch of your voice as you end the sentence to make sure it is understood to be a question, but putting the verb before the subject clearly makes it a question.

A Great Web Site to Use: This is a great link to use in explaining a bit more about how these questions are formed in Spanish and their similarity to the English language.

Confirmation or “Tag” questions: This is very common way to ask confirmation questions in Spanish speaking countries … just add one word at the end of a statement!! Once again, you must raise the pitch of your voice as you say this confirming word:

 Another brief explanation of “tag” questions.http://spanish.about.com/od/sentencestructure/g/question_tag...

Summary of Lesson: Hopefully, you have reviewed and reinforced your knowledge of different ways of asking questions in Spanish!! In order to have a conversation with your native Spanish friend, you first need to be able to ask questions about the information that you would like to know. Gradually, (and I promise that this will happen!!) little by little, you will be able to understand when he/she responds!! Just remember to use “más despacio, por favor – more slowly, please”!!

### 03.06 Review Greatest Common Factor and Factor Polynomials with Four Terms (Math Level 2)

 Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of monomials, factor polynomials by factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF) and factor expressions with four terms by grouping.

Factors are the building blocks of multiplication. They are the numbers that you can multiply together to produce another number: 2 and 10 are factors of 20, as are 4 and 5 and 1 and 20. To factor a number is to rewrite it as a product. 20 = 4 • 5.

Likewise to factor a polynomial, you rewrite it as a product. Just as any integer can be written as the product of factors, so too can any monomial or polynomial be expressed as a product of factors. Factoring is very helpful in simplifying and solving equations using polynomials.

A prime factor is similar to a prime number—it has only itself and 1 as factors. The process of breaking a number down into its prime factors is called prime factorization.

A whole number, monomial, or polynomial can be expressed as a product of factors. You can use some of the same logic that you apply to factoring integers to factoring polynomials. To factor a polynomial, first identify the greatest common factor of the terms, and then apply the distributive property to rewrite the expression. Once a polynomial in ab + ac form has been rewritten as a(b + c), where a is the GCF, the polynomial is in factored form.

When factoring a four-term polynomial using grouping, find the common factor of pairs of terms rather than the whole polynomial. Use the distributive property to rewrite the grouped terms as the common factor times a binomial. Finally, pull any common binomials out of the factored groups. The fully factored polynomial will be the product of two binomials.

If after completing this topic you can state without hesitation that...

• I can find the greatest common factor (GCF) of monomials.
• I can factor polynomials by factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF).
• I can factor expressions with four terms by grouping.

### 03.06 Roundabouts and Continuous Flow Intersections (DriverEd)

 Residential Roundabout: By Richard Drdul (Traffic Calming Flickr Photoset), CC-BY-SA-2.0, via Wikimedia Commons ROUNDABOUTS Roundabouts were created in an effort to reduce the number of points where conflict can occur between two vehicles or a vehicle and a pedestrian. A roundabout has 12 potential points of conflict compared to 56 potential points of conflict at a regular “four-leg” intersection. A typical roundabout has a mountable curb around the outside of the center island to accommodate big trucks and semis as necessary. There are four points to remember when using a roundabout: Always yield to the traffic that is already in the roundabout Roundabouts run counter clockwise, always enter the roundabout to your right Always yield to pedestrians Always signal going in and out of a roundabout. The roundabout is a free-flowing traffic lane; therefore, it is not regulated by traffic lights. It is extremely important for the driver to be aware of pedestrians that might be crossing the traffic lanes of a roundabout. CONTINUOUS FLOW INTERSECTIONS (CFI) New to Utah is a Continuous-Flow Intersection (CFI). The first one is located at 3500 South and Bangerter Highway in West Valley City. CFI is a new approach to intersection design. Compared to a traditional intersection, it reduces the steps in the light cycle and places left turns along a safer path. Proceed as you normally would but watch for another light just past the intersection. It’s possible to encounter a red light here which allows left turning cars to cross in front of you. Be sure to yield to traffic, cyclists, and pedestrians. Make your turn, merge with traffic and keep going. Proceed just like a normal intersection, but watch for another light just past the intersection. You may see a red light here which allows left turning cars to cross in front of you.

Guided Practice
After watching the video try these problems. The worked solutions follow.

Example 1:

What are the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the following:

a. y = 2x - 3

b. y=-$\fn_phv \frac{2}{3}$x + 6

c. 4x - 2y = -8

Example 2:

Write an equation in slope-intercept form with slope $\fn_phv \frac{2}{5}$ and y-intercept 4.

Example 3:

Graph the following equations:

a. y = $\fn_phv \frac{1}{3}$x - 2

b. y = -2x + 1

c. y=-$\fn_phv \frac{3}{2}$x

Example 1: What are the slope and y-intercept (b) of the following?

a)  $\fn_phv y={\color{Red} 2}x{\color{Blue} -3}$

$\fn_phv {\color{Red} m = 2}$ and $\fn_phv {\color{Blue} b = -3}$

b) $\fn_phv y={\color{Red} \frac{2}{3}}x {\color{Blue} + 6}$

$\fn_phv {\color{Red} m=\frac{2}{3}}$

$\fn_phv {\color{Blue} b=6}$

c) 4x - 2y = -8

Step 1: Write the equation in slope-intercept form.

4x - 2y = -8

Subtract 4x from both sides:

-2y = -4x - 8

Divide all three terms by -2:

$\fn_phv y={\color{Red}2 }x{\color{Blue}+4 }$

Step 2: Identify m and b.

$\fn_phv {\color{Red} m=2}$ and $\fn_phv {\color{Blue} b=4}$

Example 2: Write an equation in slope-intercept form with slope $\fn_phv {\color{Red} \frac{2}{5}}$ and y-intercept $\fn_phv {\color{Blue} 4}$.

$\fn_phv y={\color{Red} m}x {\color{Blue} + b}={\color{Red} \frac{2}{5}}x {\color{Blue} +6}$

Example 3: Graph the following equations:

a) $\fn_phv y={\color{Red} \frac{1}{3}}x {\color{Blue} -2}$

b) $\fn_phv y=\color{Red}-2x {\color{Blue} +1}$

c) $\fn_phv y=-{\color{Red} \frac{3}{2}}x$

### 03.06 Speech Patterns

 Stewart examines speech patterns of Cache Valley, Utah By George Stewart, guest writer An article on Cache Valley Utah speech style by George Stewart, which first appeared in The Statesman. This article was prompted more by interest than expertise. I have always been interested in language and how particular sounds and symbols convey ideas, experiences, and feelings. The lists of words, phrases, and pronunciation keys that follow were first collected for my own children. The children were taught that English usage is not a moral issue, although we may murder the language at times! They learned that individuals were not "good, bad, or better" because of their command of language. Language usage is very much the product of opportunity and experience. To understand and be understood provides each of us with a wider range of experiences and an enriched enjoyment of our interactions with others. Our personal use of the language can restrict or provide opportunities for us. Another lesson that my children learned from this word and usage study was the value of a sense of humor. We all have struggled with the language at some time in our lives--I still do! English "mis-usage" can be funny! We should not, however, be devastated by our own grammatical stumbles, nor should we disparage others when they miss the mark. The challenge for all of us is to grow and to improve. Not all of the following entries are necessarily "Utah"; however, many are in common use. Pronunciations n.ciation (pro.nun.ci.a.tion) tore (tour) edge.ju.cation (ed.u.ca.tion) varly (barely) stastics (statistics) or.i.en.tate (or.i.ent) pacific (specific) door.ing (during) li.berry (library) nu.cu.lar (nu.cle.ar) excetera (etcetera) air.a.gation (irrigation) exspecially (especially) crick (creek) pit.cher (pic.ture) crell (corral) pam.plit (pam.phlet) am.ble.ance (ambulance) "in" (ing)--fishin', eatin' maa.nayze (may.o.naise) 'post (suppose) drownded (drown) 'nother (another) cold slaw (coleslaw) pome (po.em) pertnear (nearly) for (far) far (for) ig.nernt (ig.no.rant) play.sure (pleasure) clean (clear) diff.ernt (dif.fer-ent) man'r (manure) pardner (partner) matore (mature) Weak or Missing Long Vowel Sounds tell (ta-il, ta-le) jell (ja-il) dell, dill (de-al) rilly (re-ally) for sal (for sa-le, often spelled "for sell" in ads) melk (milk) bell (ba-il) mel (me-al, ma-le, ma-il) ("mel" very useful; word refers to food, sex, and letters!) hell (ha-il) Phrases and Words we was (usually pronounced "wuz" meaning "we were") I promise.

### 03.06 Wormology (Earth Systems)

 teacher-scored 10 points possible 120 minutes

Assignment:

You will design and conduct an experiment that answers the following question:

How does a specific atmospheric condition affect worms (life)? In designing and conduction your experiment, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

· Worms should not be harmed maliciously

· Be careful when handling the acid rain solution, should you decide to use it.

Materials, facilities, and resources:

Materials can be added or subtracted as needed.

The following are a few ideas of things you may or may not want to use. You will certainly not need to use all of them. You may want to use some items that are not listed. You should be able to borrow these materials from your local high school teacher or purchase them for a minimal amount at local stores.

• Heat source (warm water, hot plate etc.)
• Acid rain mixture (20 ml of 0.1 M HCl to 2 liters of water or 20 ml lemon juice to 2 liters water)
• Basic glassware (graduated cylinders, beakers, canning jars)
• Worms (Planarias, Earthworms, and/or Mealworms, available in a local pet store, local fishing store, or in your yard.)
• Small paint brushes
• Droppers (Available at a local pharmacy if you do not have a spare medicine dropper hanging around.)
• Straws
• String
• Colored light sources
• Thermometers
• Dissecting trays or something similar (like a pie tin)
• UV light source
• Wind source (fan)
• Ice
• Scales
• Alka Seltzer tablets (source of carbon dioxide)

The experiment rubric (see the attachment) outlines what is expected in your experiment. It also shows how your experiment will be scored.

Click on the "Experiment Rubric" link and review what is expected.

1. Determine exactly which changed atmospheric condition you would like to simulate in your experiment. For example, you may want to test the effect of acid rain on worms or global warming or increased carbon dioxide levels, etc. Decide on the specific question that you would like to test and write it down.

2. Predict what you think the outcome of your experiment will be. This is your HYPOTHESIS. Use the following format for writing your prediction: IF I ________________(write what you will do in your experiment), THEN___________(Fill in the blank with what you think will happen.) For example, IF I increase the temperature 10 degrees Celsius, THEN the worms will become sluggish and move more slowly.

3. Write a set of procedures that will test your hypothesis. Be sure to include a timeline. Your experiment may last a little as 60 minutes or as long as a week. You do not need to plan an experiment that lasts longer than a week. Remember to include a control. Be very specific. Tell me exactly what you plan to do. Tell me how much of everything you plan on using. Tell me how long you plan on running the experiment, and how often you will check it. Tell me how you will measure and record your data. I want details!

4. STOP! Submit your experimental design to me via email before going any further. Send me your question, hypothesis, and your procedures. I promise to give you feedback on your design within three days. If the design is scientifically sound, you may go ahead and conduct your experiment. If it has flaws, we will work together until you have designed a valid, reliable experiment---then you may go ahead and conduct your experiment. If you fail to submit your plan before you do your experiment you may not receive credit for the assignment.

5. AFTER you have received my go-ahead, conduct your experiment. Be sure to keep detailed lab notes. Your lab notes should contain a record of everything you did as well as all the data you collected. Every entry on your lab notes should be dated (month/day/year)

ANALYSIS

2. Send me your lab notes. I want to the observations that you recorded. Do not simply send me a summary of your results. I want to see a record of everything you did as well as the data you collected.

3. Based on your observations, write a conclusion. What does your data tell you? What did you learn from your experimental results?

4. What kind of relationships did you find between worms and your selected atmospheric condition?

6. If you were to do this again, what would you change? Why?

7. What additional experiments could be performed?

GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!!!

Summary:

Now that you've learned about cells, cell chemistry, properties of elements in cells and much more, let's put a little of that to use in our everyday world. Sure, you understand that you and other organisms are made up of cells and that cells have an important function in our bodies. You have researched the macromolecules (proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids), and you have looked at some of the major elements that play a role in the makeup of the human beings and all other organisms. Don't forget that inorganic materials (those not containing Carbon - nonliving factors in our environment) are also present in our everyday lives.

You've heard the phrase "you are what you eat." Let's take a little stroll to your kitchen and see what exactly it is that you take into your body daily, and what these items may do for your body.

Instructional Procedures:

This assignment contains two parts.  Copy all information below between the lines of asterisks, including the lesson number, revision date and all questions into a word document.

ASSIGNMENT 03.06.01 - REVISION DATE: 8/28/14 (Copy everything between the asterisks.)

PART 1

• Obtain the original label from any type of non-perishable food Item (get the can or the box). 
• List all of the Ingredients. There should be at least 7 different ingredients. 
• Research and explain each of the ingredients.  Make sure you include the purpose for the ingredient in the food and how it helps or hinders your body. (Note: Some items have no nutritive value. You should explain what their purpose is in the product. Why put them in?)
• Give references for you information.

PART 2

Being properly hydrated is important for you to stay healthy.  There are several ways to determine how much water you need to drink each day.  Use the following formula to calculate how much water you need to drink each day.

current weight/2 = how many ounces of water you need to drink each day

1 cup = 8 ounces

For example a person who weighs 130 pounds should drink 65 ounces of water each day.  That's equivalent to 8.125 cups of water each day.

130/2 = 65 ounces

65 ounces ÷ 8 ounces = 8.125 cups

1. How many ounces of water do you need to drink each day?
2. How many cups of water do you need to drink each day?

 Found in Space! Introduction: You started out fourth quarter describing energy that is “Lost in Space”. (Remember assignment 4.3?) Now, at the end of fourth quarter you’ll describe information that is “Found in Space”. Lost and found--Sounds like someplace you’d look for your missing yo-yo! 04.06 yo-yo Well, I know where my favorite yo-yo is, and hopefully you do too. But, do you know how scientists learned about the universe? Or how scientists believe the universe began? What about how stars are born and die? Or how Earth compares to other planets? You will find this, and other information, in the assignment that follows. Hang on and enjoy your intellectual journey to see you what you can find in (or about) space. To this point, we have studied Earth’s various sub-systems (I’m sure that by now you can recite them in your sleep; water system, geologic system, atmospheric system, biologic system). Now we will examine the Earth as a part of a larger system. Earth is a part of the solar system. The solar system is a component of the system we call the Milky Way Galaxy. 04.06 galaxy Our galaxy is part of the universe as we know it, and who knows what part the universe plays in an even greater whole? As a member of these systems, the Earth both affects and is affected by its celestial neighbors. In fact, the Earth itself exists thanks to interactions that occurred millions of years ago in our “corner” of the universe. It is your job to document these interactions.

 teacher-scored 25 points possible 60 minutes

This assignment should be completed by WEEK 3 of this class

Standard Four Video INSTRUCTIONS: You will need to submit an instructional video demonstrating an exercise of your choice from the following list. If you are unable to make a video of YOURSELF, you can use powerpoint to create a presentation USING pictures of YOU demonstrating the basics skills for the exercise you have chosen. (As in Quarter 1.....there needs to be as many pictures as there are CRTICAL CUES for each exercise.)

****Here is the list of acceptable activities you can choose from

*** You must choose an activity from THIS LIST

sit-ups, pull-ups, crunches, push-ups, biceps curl, shoulder press, squats, rows, leg curls, chest fly.

SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT. Take all reasonable safety precautions for the chosen activity. You may not receive credit if your teacher finds that you have not taken safety into consideration. *You will need to demonstrate the correct way to do whatever exercise you choose. You must research the correct form and sequence for your activity (use books or the internet, or ask your coach if you have one for the activity).

You will also need to discuss the importance of the FITT principal as it relates to your activity of choice.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE VIDEO:. *Your video needs to be at least one minute long and NO longer than two minutes. If you would rather take pictures and use a video editor program to make a video/powerpoint to create your video, you can but you must have a minimum of 4-6 pictures.

*You MUST be the star of your video, the video needs to be of YOU teaching and demonstrating how to perform the skill or exercise, so you might need to get a friend to do the filming. You will also be the narrator of the video.

*Assume that you are making this video for another student who has never tried your particular activity/sport.

*You CANNOT use the same video for another other PE Skills and Techniques, including both quarters. Example: If the activity you choose was tennis, you would need to show the basic skills of tennis, such as:

How to grip the tennis racket. How to serve a tennis ball. What a backhand swing looks like and how to accomplish it. Etc.

****************************************

When you have completed this process, Submit your video in the submission box by pasting your url in the text box. Make sure you include the following obervation questions:

1. From the list of activities - sit-ups, pull-ups, crunches, push-ups, biceps curl, shoulder press, squats, rows, leg curls, chest fly, which activity did you choose to demonstrate and teach?

2. What source(s) you used to research the correct technique.

3. What you learned from watching yourself in the video about how you might improve your technique in your activity (ie, critique yourself).

4. How can you implement the FITT principal in your activity to improve yourself in the activity of your choice?

****************************************

INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR VIDEO: You will need a computer with a connection to the Internet and your digital video content (under two minutes, please).

You can choose between

"Photobucket" - image hosting and video hosting website

WHICHEVER resource you decide to use to submit your video..... you need to Submit the LINK to your video with your Questions in the assignment Submission, so the questions and the Video are together to be graded.

****DO NOT send the video to my EMAIL!!! *****

In YouTube, you need to make your video "available to the world." When you go to the "My Videos" section of your YouTube account, play the video you want to submit. At this point you need to click on the "Share this Video" then copy the URL address in the URL and paste it in the Text Entry with your Questions or the comment box and submit it WITH YOUR ASSIGNMENT

Photobucket is very similar. If you don't have a video camera, you can use still images in a slide show with narration that is converted to digital video.

IF you decide to NOT use PHOTOBUCKET or YOUTUBE... You can upload your video or power point to your GOOGLE drive and share it and then copy the link, and paste it into the text entry submission page with your Questions and submit it.

Please make sure your video is in one of the following formats or you will have to redo the video.

### 04.06 Domain, Range, Graphs and Transformations of Absolute Value Functions (Math Level 2)

 Identify the domain and range of absolute value functions and graph absolute value functions and the transformation of their parent functions.

Recall that the absolute value is defined as the distance a number is from zero. Since it is a distance, the absolute value will always be postive, or zero. Absolute value is represented by two parallel vertical lines on either side of a term. For example, $\left | 3 \right |$.

An absolute value function is a function whose rule contains an absolute value expression. The parent graph for absolute values is f(x)=|x| and it looks like this:

The graph is a V shape. It has a vertex and is symmetrical about the vertical line running through the vertex.

The general form of an absolute value function is $y=a\left | x-h \right |+k$. The absolute value function has many similarities with the quadratic function.

• The vertex of the absolute value function is (h,k). Note that the value of h is the opposite of what is in the equation.
• It is symmetric about the line x = h.
• If a > 0, (a is positive), the graph opens up. If a < 0, (a is negative), the graph opens down.
• If $\left | a \right |$ < 1, the graph will be wider. If $\left | a \right |$ > 1, the graph will be narrower.

You will recall that the domain is the set of all possible inputs (all the x values) of a function which allow the function to work. The range is the set of all possible outputs (all the y values) of a function.

Let’s apply this to absolute value functions.

Look at the graph of f(x) = |x|:

Absolute value function graphs always look like the letter V. All such functions will have a domain that includes all real numbers. The range will vary depending on the value of the vertex. Can you see that the range of this function is all real numbers ≥ 0?

Now, let’s graph the function f(x) = |x + 2|:

• How does (x+2) change the domain?
• How does (x+2) change the range?

The domain is still all real numbers and the range is still all real numbers ≥ 0. The (x+2) moved the vertex (0,0) to (-2,0).

What about the graph of f(x) = |x| + 2?

• How does +2 change the domain?
• How does +2 change the range?

The domain is still all real numbers and the range is all real numbers ≥ 2. The vertex is (0,2).

Here is the graph of f(x) = |x – 2|.

• How does (x – 2 change the domain?
• How does (x – 2) change the range?

The domain is still all real numbers and the range is all real numbers ≥ 0.

Finally, look at the graph of f(x) = |x| – 2?

• How does –2 change the domain?
• How does –2 change the range?

In what must be obvious to you by now, the domain is still all real numbers but the range is all real numbers ≥ –2. The vertex is (0, –2).

Have you figured out a pattern?

• f(x) = |x + a| translates the graph to the left and does not alter the domain nor the range.
• f(x) = |xa| translates the graph to the right and does not alter the domain nor the range.
• f(x) = |x| + a translates the graph up and does not alter the domain. However, the range is moved to ≥ k.
• f(x) = |x| – a translates the graph down and does not alter the domain. However, the range is moved to ≥ – k.

In this “family” of graphs, the original f(x) = |x| is called the parent function. The other graphs in the “family” are referred to as transformations of the parent function. Once you have graphed the parent function it is easy to graph the transformations.

Let's make things a bit more interesting. Look at the graph of f(x) = 2|x|:

The domain and range don’t change but the “V” is narrower.

What about the graph of f(x) = –2|x|?

Hmmm. The “V” is upside down! It is a reflection of f(x) = 2|x|.

The domain doesn’t change but the range is now all real numbers ≤ 0.

Of course, we can make things even more interesting.

How about the graph of f(x) = –3|x + 2| + 1?

Can you figure out the domain and range?

The domain is still all real numbers but the range is all real numbers ≤ 1. The vertex is (–2,1).

We can now add to our list from above:

• f(x) = a|x| compresses the graph but does not alter the domain nor the range.
• f(x) = –a|x| compresses the graph, then reflects it across the x-axis and does not alter the domain. However, the range is changed to all real numbers ≤ 0.
• f(x) = a|x + h| + k translates the graph left or right depending on the value of h. It also translates the graph up or down depending on the value of k.
• Finally, it compresses the graph depending on the value of a.

Take time to practice with these types of graphs at the website listed below.

### 04.06 Lesson 4F “¿Cuál(es)? - Which? (Spanish I)

 Lesson 4F “¿Cuál(es)? - Which? [A copy of this lesson is available in a PDF file!! If you prefer to use this type of document, just click on the following link to complete this lesson: SpI_Lesson4F]              In this lesson, we’re going to look at another important question word, “¿Cuál(es)? – Which?”. This question word is similar to the question word, “¿Quién(es)? – Who/Whom?” (Spanish I – Quarter 1: Lesson 1J). These question words change depending on whether the thing/person that is being asked about in the question is singular or plural. (¡¡Remember!! – In Spanish, they follow the same rule for exclamation and question marks as they have for quotes and parenthesis … using a mark to begin the exclamation or question as well as at the end. It makes reading Spanish much easier, with fewer surprises!!)            Looking at the examples above – the Spanish word “¿cuál(es)?” is used just like the word “which?” in English … but “¿cuál(es)?” can also be used in Spanish, the same way that English speakers use the word, “what?”. This can cause many English speakers to confuse the two Spanish words: “¿Cuál(es)?” and “¿Qué?” … so it is important to understand the subtle difference!!            “¿Qué?” – this Spanish question word is used when asking for an identification of an object, a definition, or an explanation.            “¿Cuál(es)?” – this Spanish question word is used when asking for a choice from few or many (even billions) of possibilities.            Now lets look at the following examples to see when to use each word:            So the question word “¿Cuál(es)?” is the correct Spanish word to use when asking for specific information about a person or people. Once you learn this question word, you can ask Spanish speakers many basic questions about their lives using the list of words below. (The YouTube video clip below shows exactly how this is done!) Summary of Lesson: Hopefully, you have learned another important way of asking questions in Spanish!! In order to have a conversation with your native Spanish friend, you first need to be able to ask questions about the information that you would like to know. Gradually, (and we promise that this will happen!!) little by little, you will be able to understand when he/she responds!! Just remember to use “más despacio, por favor – more slowly, please”!!            Practice Exercises: Make sure you completely understand the concepts taught in this lesson by reviewing the following article!!

Now that you know a few more things about insurance, we will consider insurance rates and insurance requirements for cars in Utah. The government does not require that you be insured against all risks. They DO require car insurance. Car insurance is also required by those who loan the money to buy car because they want to minimize their risks. They want to make sure they get their money back. Lets consider a few things about auto insurance.

Visit URL #1. Skip the “Compare Quotes Instantly” section and scroll down to “Utah Car Insurance Laws” to find out what car insurance is required in Utah. You may stop reading when you reach the section entitled “Where to get Utah auto insurance quotes.” Again, ignore the “sidebar” insurance advertisements and other price quote links. Then exit the web page and go to the next URL. Visit URL #2 to learn more about "no-fault" insurance and "minimum liabilty rates."  Visit URL #3 to learn how to lower car insurance rates.

STAGES OF PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT TIMELINE OF PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT Day 1 - conception takes place. 7 days - tiny human implants in mother’s uterus. 10 days - mother’s menses stop. 18 days - heart begins to beat. 21 days - pumps own blood through separate closed circulatory system with own blood type. 28 days - eye, ear and respiratory system begin to form. 42 days - brain waves recorded, skeleton complete, reflexes present. 7 weeks - photo of thumbsucking. 8 weeks - all body systems present. 9 weeks - squints, swallows, moves tongue, makes fist. 11 weeks - spontaneous breathing movements, has fingernails, all body systems working. 12 weeks - weighs one ounce. 16 weeks - genital organs clearly differentiated, grasps with hands, swims, kicks, turns, somersaults, (still not felt by the mother.) 18 weeks - vocal cords work – can cry. 20 weeks - has hair on head, weighs one pound, 12 inches long. 23 weeks - 15% chance of viability outside of womb if birth premature.* 24 weeks - 56% of babies survive premature birth.* 25 weeks - 79% of babies survive premature birth.* (*Source: M. Allen et. al., "The Limits of Viability." New England Journal of Medicine. 11/25/93: Vol. 329, No. 22, p. 1597.) Introduction/ Summary: The duration of pregnancy is divided into three equal segments called trimesters. The first trimester (months 1-3) is essential to the proper development of the infant and encompasses both the ovum and embryonic period of prenatal development. This is when all organs, nerve cells and brain cells develop. This is when most spontaneous abortions (miscarriages) occur. They generally are caused by abnormal development of the fetus and are nature’s way of eliminating a chromosomal abnormality. It is vital that all necessary nutrients be available to the fetus in order to develop properly. The second trimester (months 4-6) is often referred to as the “Golden trimester”. This is when the mother generally feels the best. Morning sickness and nausea have generally disappeared and the mother is quite comfortable. The third trimester comprises (months 7-9). These are important months for the baby as its organs and body systems mature and prepare to function on their own. The fat accumulated during this time will five the baby a “head start” on life. The prenatal development is sometimes separated into three development periods. The first period is referred to as the period of the zygote. This stage begins at conception and lasts until the zygote is implanted in the mother’s uterus. It lasts for about 10-14 days. The zygote grows to be about the size of a pinhead. Roots grow from the zygote into the wall of the uterus where they can receive nutrients from the mother’s blood The period of the embryo lasts from about 2 weeks to 8 weeks after conception. The embryo is attached to the mother by the umbilical cord (20 inches long) which reaches from the embryo’s stomach to the wall of the uterus. The umbilical cord contains arteries which carry the embryo’s waste products away from the embryo to the mother’s blood system to be purified. It also brings oxygenated and nutrient-rich blood back to the embryo to keep it alive. The umbilical cord is connected to the placenta. The placenta is an organ which serves as a medium for the exchange of nutrients and waste between the mother and the fetus. Throughout this period, the embryo is inside the amniotic sac (a bag filled with watery substance called amniotic fluid). The fluid will protect the developing baby against bumps, bruises and temperature changes. During this period all of the organs that will be present at birth are formed. The third development period is called the period of the fetus. This period extends from the end of the second month of pregnancy until birth. During this stage, the developing baby is referred to as a fetus. The body parts, organs and systems which were formed during the embryo period will become much more developed and begin to function. The fetus will begin will begin to resemble a human being and features will increase in clarity. During the fetal period the baby may increase in length as much as twelve inches. MONTHLY DEVELOPMENT Month 2 The embryo increases in length to about 1 ½ inches. Bones and muscles begin to form. The head grows rapidly at first, accounting for about half of the embryo’s size. The face and neck begin to take on human form. The brain develops very rapidly. Leg and arm buds form and grow the eyes begin converging toward the center of the face. The mouth and nose form. Major organs of the digestive system become differentiated. The heart has been beating for about a month now. Month 3 The fetus measures about 3 inches from head to buttocks and weighs about ½ ounce. The fetus has all of its major systems and they are functioning. However, it is still unable to survive independently. No new organs will need to be formed, but the ones that are present will need time to develop and mature. The digestive system is active. The liver and kidneys are functioning. The fetus practices swallowing amniotic fluid, breathing amniotic fluid and its vocal chords are developing. The roof of its mouth comes together and fuses. Taste buds appear, sex organs continue to develop, buds for all temporary teeth are formed and bone formation begins. During this month, arms, legs and fingers begin to make spontaneous movement. The eyelids close and are sealed shut at this time. They will reopen at about 6 months. Month 4 The fetus grows to almost 6 inches in length and 4 ounces in weight. The skin is thin, loose and wrinkled and appears red because of underlying blood vessels. The face acquires a human appearance. The body outgrows the head at this time. Hands and feet become well formed and finger closure is possible. The fetal reflexes become more brisk as it begins to stir and move the arms and legs. In males, the testes are in position for later descent into the scrotum and in females, the uterus and vagina are recognizable. Month 5 The fetus is now about 12 inches long and weighs about 8 ounces. During this month the mother will probably feel the baby’s movement, called quickening. It is suspended in a quart of amniotic fluid. The development seems so advanced that the skin and digestive organs are not prepared to exist on their own. Also, there is no provision for regulating body temperature. The fetus grows a fine dark body hair called lanugo and collects vernix, which is a waxy coating to cover and protect the skin. The nose and ears begin ossification, the skeleton hardens, and the heartbeat can now be heard. Fingernails and toenails begin to appear and the baby will wake and sleep. Sweat glands are formed and functioning. Month 6 The fetus increases in weight and is now between 1 ½ - 2 pounds. The eyelids, which have been fused shut, are now open and completely formed. The eyes look up, down and sideways. Eyebrows and eyelashes are well defined and taste buds appear on the tongue and in the mouth. Month 7 The fetus is now about 15 inches long and weighs between 2 ½ - 3 pounds. It can cry weakly and can suck its thumb. The fetus can make a variety of reflex movements: startle, grasp, and swim movements. The cerebral hemispheres cover almost the entire brain. Month 8 The fetus will gain 2-3 pounds during this month, which it will need to stay warm following birth. The fingernails reach beyond the fingertips and much of the lanugo is shed. By the end of this month, the fetus will most likely settle into the head down position. However, the baby is capable of changing positions. Month 9 The fetus reaches full growth. It measures 14-15 inches from head to buttocks and weighs 6-8 pounds. During this last month, the baby acquires antibodies from its mother which will give it temporary immunity against some diseases. The eyes are normally blue at birth because pigmentation is not normally formed until after a few weeks of exposure to light. Vernix is present over the entire body. The fetus will alternate between periods of activity and periods of quiet. The organs increase their activity, the fetal heart rate increases to rapid rate. Birth usually occurs approximately 280 days after the first day of the mother’s last menstrual period. TRIMESTERS FIRST TRIMESTER The Mother There are many signs and symptoms that help determine pregnancy. The first and most obvious change is missing a menstrual period. Usually with this symptom a woman will suspect pregnancy, although some women may miss two periods (if their cycle is not regular) before suspecting pregnancy. A simple urine test from the doctor will show whether or not a woman is pregnant. Home pregnancy tests are available for $10-$15 and are quite accurate, but are no substitute for a doctor’s test or visit. (Most doctors will give their own test anyway!) Other changes that take place in the woman are as follow: Morning sickness/nausea: this probably occurs due to the change in hormones or a drop in blood level. Morning sickness does not just take place in the morning. Many women say it is associated with smells or foods they eat. Not much can be done to cure morning sickness. (Drugs or over-the-counter stomach remedies should not be taken.) Watching the diet can help relieve some of the symptoms. Your doctor may recommend eating several small meals through out the day and/or eating something before getting out of bed, such as crackers. Also, there is a vitamin B6 shot the doctor can give that seems to help many women. Frequent urination: Because the uterus lies next to the bladder, the changes in the uterus cause crowding. Therefore, the need for urination is increased. Cravings: Unusual food cravings are also common during pregnancy. Giving in to them once in a while is all right. If you crave non-food items, consult your doctor. Breasts: Swollen, tender breasts are common in pregnancy. This may occur before the menstrual period is missed. The breasts will enlarge a lot during the first few months. Although nothing will prevent stretch marks, lotions can relieve the tightness and itching associated with pregnancy. Fatigue and Dizziness: these are two common symptoms of early pregnancy. To alleviate dizzy spells, get up slowly. To help with fatigue, get plenty of rest and eliminate unnecessary physical exertion. However, maintaining a regular pre-pregnancy exercise program can be most beneficial as long as it is with your doctor’s approval. The Baby During the first trimester many changes take place for the baby. At four weeks the embryo is approximately ¼ inch long and its heart has started to beat. By six weeks after fertilization the embryo is about 5/8 inch long and has developed most of its vital organs. Its bones are still soft but the skeleton is well-formed. The arms and legs are forming. At eight weeks the embryo officially becomes a fetus. In two months the mother has missed two menstrual cycles and her body has created a completely new individual. By the ninth week the fetus floats in the amniotic fluid and is nourished from the placenta through the umbilical cord. At twelve weeks the fetus is 2 ¾ inches long. Most of its organs are working, including the kidneys. Its arms, legs, hand, fingers, etc. are fully developed. The nails on its fingers and toes are starting to develop. The Mother At the end of three months the baby is essentially complete. Form now on the mother’s uterus is busy helping the growth and perfecting of the baby. The doctor should be called immediately if any of these symptoms occur: Vaginal bleeding Sharp abdominal pain or cramping Loss of fluid from the vagina Severe or prolonged nausea or vomiting Frequent dizzy spells Painful urination High fever over 100*F Vaginal discharge that is irritating Some other things to consider: Do not take any medication unless approved by your doctor. This includes over-the-counter drugs. No drugs or alcohol. These have a tremendous effect on the baby. No X-rays. Radiation can interfere with cell division and organ development. No saunas and hot tubs. The high and prolonged temperatures can be harmful to the fetus. Vaccinations. Because vaccinations are live viruses, these should not be taken during pregnancy. However, do vaccinate the children in your home to protect them against these deadly diseases. Cats. A parasite found in cats, cattle, sheep, and pigs can cause a disease in humans called Toxoplasmosis. This can cause severe damage to an unborn child. Because of this risk, you should avoid undercooked meat and changing cat litter boxes. SECOND TRIMESTER The Mother The woman’s body has many changes taking place: Skin: Each woman’s body reacts differently to pregnancy. Skin may become oily, dry, scaly, etc. the skin must stretch over the growing uterus. Therefore, stretch marks appear often. Facial skin may darken. This is called Chloasma or the mask of pregnancy. Staying out of the sun can help but usually there is nothing that can be done to prevent it. It usually disappears after pregnancy. Another area that darkens is a line from the navel to the pubic hair. This is called Linea Nigra. This line disappears after pregnancy. Many women have this line – some darker than others. Emotions: Because of the hormonal changes within the woman’s body, she may experience mood swings, depression, and even bad dreams. She simply must adjust and realize that the moods will pass. She may need a few extra breaks or time to relax. She should not blame herself but realize that this is normal with all of the changes taking place in her life. The Baby By the fourth month the fetus is about two inches long. The first outlines of the face are showing. The muscles have developed and the baby is beginning to move. The baby weighs about ¾ of an ounce (the weight of an ordinary letter). The umbilical cord and placenta are now the source of nourishment from the mother. By the fifth month the fetus is six inches long and is completely formed. The baby’s movements are noticeable to the mother and she will feel them regularly. The skull bones are the most important bones being developed at this time. These will not complete development until after the baby is born. The sixth month is just past the half-way mark. The eyes are now fully developed. The ears are complete. There is a lot of evidence to show that the baby can hear the outside world. The sounds are probably muffled, maybe like sounds under water. It is also believed the baby can hear the mother’s voice and heart beat and, of course, the rumbling of her stomach. Fingerprints are formed. THIRD TRIMESTER The Mother The most obvious change that takes place in the third trimester is the woman’s body. The abdomen enlarges and fatigue is common. The baby moves a lot now. The mother should feel it move every couple of hours. If she does not, she should call her doctor. Generally expectant fathers take more interest during this last trimester. This is because they can feel the baby move and the reality of the impending birth makes them anxious and excited. A lot of women become more interested in how their bodies function during pregnancy, especially with a first pregnancy. They read everything they can to learn about this process. There are some common discomforts many women experience during the third trimester: Heartburn is caused by the large size of the baby and the stomach being pushed up. Usually cutting down on the size of meals will help with this problem. Eating several small meals is suggested. Another help is cutting out greasy ad spic foods. Again, the caution, do not take any over-the-counter medicines without your doctor’s approval. Shortness of breath is due to the size and activity of the baby. Taking deep breaths is a difficult task. Before delivery the baby “drops,” making breathing easier. Some women experience heart palpitations. The body volume has increased and sometimes the heart has to work overtime. However, the heart can stand the strain. Leg cramps are common, especially late in the pregnancy. These are often called “Charley Horses.” The woman must walk them off or relax until they subside. Providing the body with plenty of calcium is important. Sometimes taking extra calcium is helpful. Round ligament pains. Because of all the pressure on the ligaments in the lower abdomen, a mild to moderate pain sometimes occurs. There is a product called a SLING available at women’s personal departments. This helps support the abdomen and back, relieving pain and discomfort. The Baby The last trimester is mostly a time for the baby to grow and develop by developing a layer of fat. The organs develop and get ready for the baby to be born. The lungs develop in preparation for breathing and the baby is now head-down. It does not have room to roll around as in previous months. It still moves, but is not as active in the last few weeks because of limited space. By the end of the 38-40 weeks, the baby “drops” – giving the mother a little breathing space. DANGER SIGNALS As in the other trimesters, there are danger signals to watch for: Vaginal bleeding Sharp abdominal pain/cramping Loss of fluid Frequent dizzy spells Visual disturbances Nausea or vomiting Sudden and excessive swelling of face, hands, and feet Headache Burning, painful urinationFever Vaginal discharge Call your doctor if any of these problems occur. The recommended weight gain for an average woman during pregnancy is 25 to 30 pounds. This weight is distributed as follows: Baby – 7 ½ pounds Placenta – 1 ½ pounds Uterus – 2 pounds Amniotic Fluid – 1 ½ pounds Extra blood volume and water retention – 4 ½ pounds Breast tissue – 3 pounds Maternal stores of protein – 4 pounds ADD .doc HERE

### 04.06 Search Mechanisms

 Using Search Mechanisms As mentioned previously, internet searching is a critical skill to learn and master. Attached above is a helpful chart called "Search Mechanisims" to guide you on what search tool to use in various situations. Review the chart and become familiar with the information. There is an interesting search activity on the internet. It is called Googlewhacking. A Googlewhack is a type of contest for finding a Google search query consisting of exactly two words without quotation marks, that returns exactly one hit. A Googlewhack must consist of two actual words found in a dictionary. A Googlewhack is considered legitimate if both of the searched-for words appear in the result page. Published googlewhacks are short-lived, since when published to a website, the new number of hits will become at least two, one to the original hit found, and one to the publishing site. If you want to, go ahead and try it(not required). It's very difficult to come up with one. Double check with your parents before you try, Make sure your browser "safe search" is on. Do not follow any questionable links. Also attached above is document named "Search Engine Info Packet." Review the information on Search engines carefully. Also attached is the document "Internet Searches Worksheet." Use the information from the Search Engine Info packet to fill out the information on the worksheet completely. You will upload this worksheet as part of the assignment submission

### 04.06 Section 4.3: Reimann Sums and Definite Integrals (Calculus)

 Section 4.3, Concept 1: Reimann Sums Read Concept 1, Example 1. Remember you are adding (summing) many rectangles' areas. The area of a rectangle is height times width. In Fig. 4.18, the height is f(c) (determined by the height of the curve) and the width is Δx. Your summation is simply summing height times width for every rectangle. If n = 3, you've got 3 rectangles; if n = 4, you sum up the area of 4 rectangles. But, if we have unequal rectangles, that width may not apply when i = 4. So, we need a general form for the distance or width of every rectangle. So, you subtract the ith interval from the (i-1)st interval. So, they substituted i-1 in for i in the formula for x sub i. Then simplified! Then, substituted that into the limit, with f(c) also substituted, and the limit is found. That limit is the area under that curve! Section 4.3, Concept 2: Definite Integrals Instead of writing limits, we are now going to use integral notation. And, we are going to specify limits of integration. These limits of integration are values a and b, that we want to find the area of a curve between. Read Example 2. What wrong with the answer? Is that the correct area? It isn't. So, simply computing the definite integral does not necessarily mean the area under the curve, because area below the x-axis is negative! Now complete problems 7, 9, 13-23 odd, 27, and 31.

### 04.06 Space Text book (Earth Systems)

 teacher-scored 50 points possible 700 minutes

Assignment:

This is a BIG project. You are to write a textbook that documents many of the components of the space systems of which Earth is a part. Your textbook will contain four chapters, as outlined below.

· Be written in your own words (that means it should be easily understood by the typical high school freshman)

· Cover ALL of the information required

· Include illustrations and diagrams.

· Be scientifically accurate

· Be referenced. You MUST cite all information sources you use, including the addresses of all Internet sites.

· Include THREE multiple-choice questions for each chapter. The multiple-choice questions must have answers with them. Each chapter is worth 10 points. The entire project is worth 50 points. (10 points for the information included in each of the four chapters and an additional 10 points for having illustrations and multiple choice questions.)

Suggested Internet sites will be given for each chapter (see the URL's). You may use these sites, but you do not have to. You may use any sources of information available to you, provided that you reference them. Each chapter will probably be about three pages long.

You should include enough information to adequately cover the subject but I certainly do not expect a major research paper on each topic.

I STRONGLY suggest that you complete the first chapter and send it to me before working on the remaining three chapters. I will review your work and will tell you whether what you have done is satisfactory or if you need to invest more time and effort into your work. You may give your FOUR chapters any title of your choosing, but the contents of your chapters must be as follows:

Chapter One: The History of Cosmology

Cosmology is the scientific study of the large-scale properties of the Universe as a whole. Over the centuries, mankind’s ideas about the nature of the universe have changed significantly. In this chapter you will describe how the accepted ideas regarding the nature of the universe have changed in science throughout history.

In your chapter, include explanations of the ideas of the following individuals:

· The ancient Greeks · Ptolemy · Copernicus · Galileo · Kepler · Newton · Hubble · Einstein · ALSO, identify at least two examples of how technology has helped scientists investigate the universe. (HINT: The telescope is an example of technology.)

Do NOT copy the text from your sources word for word. I have read the information on the sites. I will recognize it if you cut and paste it into your text. You will FAIL the assignment if you cut and paste the information from your sources into your textbook. You MUST write it in your own words.

STOP! Send me your first chapter for review before you continue.

Chapter Two: Origin of the Universe

· Describe the Big Bang Theory. 1. What does the theory state? 2. When did the Big Bang occur?

3. What happened during the Bang?

4. What happened in the microseconds, seconds, minutes, and years after the Big Bang?

· Describe at least three pieces of evidence that support the Big Bang Theory, including:

1. Red shift evidence. What is a red shift? What does it tell us about the relative motion of a star or of the universe? Does the red shift indicate the universe is expanding or contracting?

2. Cosmic microwave background energy. Where does it come from? How does its presence support the Big Bang Theory?

3. The numbers and kinds of atoms found in the universe. There are many more hydrogen and helium atoms in the universe that any other kind of atoms. Where did they come from? How did they form? How does their relative abundance support the Big Bang Theory?

REMEMBER to include your three multiple-choice questions as well as your references. Also, write the text in your own words and include illustrations or diagrams.

Chapter Three: Star Life Cycles

· Describe the life cycle of a typical star.

· Compare life cycle of the sun to the life cycle of other stars.

· Hydrogen and helium (light elements) were formed during the Big Bang. Describe how the heavier elements were formed. (HINT: The answer has to do with the end of a star’s life!)

· While you are at it, explain the origin of heavy elements on Earth. Where did most of the matter on Earth come from? (HINT: The answer is the same as the answer to the preceding question!)

REMEMBER to include your three multiple-choice questions with answers. Also, document your sources and write the text in your own words. Have you included diagrams or illustrations?

Chapter Four: Life on Earth

· Describe the unique physical features of Earth’s environment that make life on Earth possible. Consider things like the atmosphere (including ozone layer and greenhouse gases), solar energy, and water.

· Choose two planets in our solar system and compare them to Earth.

Consider their:

1. average temperatures, low and high

2. location in the solar system

3. satellites

4. atmosphere

5. gravity

6. common elements

7. geology

8. other interesting facts

REMEMBER to include your three multiple-choice questions with answers. Also, write the text in your own words and identify your sources of information. Don’t forget your diagrams and/or illustrations!

What question are you answering?: Image: Michelle Meiklejohn / FreeDigitalPhotos.netTips For Writing A Thesis Statement Now that you have investigated and written about your topic, in depth, it is time to finalize your thesis statement. You have discovered what truly interests you about your subject through your research and writing. You now need to review your writing and your previous thesis statement to ensure that it states what you have presented in your paper. This statement serves as the main idea for your paper. It should express what you believe your research proves. An effective thesis statement tells readers specifically what you plan to tell them in your paper. It serves as a guide to keep your ideas on track as you present your research. Make sure your thesis does the following . . . -makes a statement of importance, takes a stand of some sort, or expresses a specific perspective or feature of the subject being researched. -briefly presents the most important point(s) of the paper in a effort to set a specific approach/direction and or purpose for your writing. The following formula and examples could be used to form your finalized thesis statement:

A specific subject THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA + a particular stand, feeling, or feature WAS SPECIFICALLY BUILT AS A DEFENSE SYSTEM = an effective thesis statement of purpose Sample Thesis Statements: 1. What is the Great Wall of China and why was it built? OR 2. Certain political forces were at work when the Great Wall of China was being developed as a defense system.

Refine your thesis statement according to the following checklist

Thesis Checklist Make sure your thesis statement… _____ identifies a limited, specific subject _____ focuses on a particular stand, feature, or feeling about the subject _____ is stated in a clear, direct sentence (or sentences) _____ can be supported with the convincing facts and details you have researched and included in your drafts _____ meets the requirements of the assignments and explains what you are wanting to present or prove to your readers

You can use your original thesis phraseology, if it seems to meet the stated requirements, but make sure you have included the main idea that you have formulated throughout the research process of your topic.

Final Submission Inclusions: a. copy of the original thesis, labeled as thesis 1 b. copy of the new thesis, pasted below the old one and labeled as thesis 2 c. the body of the research paper needs to be attached below the two thesis statements Grading Criteria:

### 04.06 Window treatments(IntDes2)

 WINDOW TREATMENTS Overview: A window treatment is not considered the focal point of a room. However, the wall space or furniture surrounding the window may be considered a focal point. It is important to use appropriate treatments made of suitable materials to maximize the utility of the window. A window treatment should add to the beauty of the room in both color and style. Other considerations when making a selection are privacy, light control, durability of materials, and the ability of the material to conserve energy and block noise. Window treatments can be created to enhance or obscure an outside view. WINDOW TREATMENTS: BOTTOM UP SHADE A type of roller shade which pulls up instead of down CASEMENT FABRIC Fabric that is heavy enough to be drawn at night for privacy and serve as side draperies during the day CORNICE A rigid horizontal heading of wood or metal. CURTAIN Stationary treatment made of sheet or lightweight fabric DRPERY Heavier fabrics – may be stationary or drawn CASCADE Softly draped fabric hung at each side of swags JABOTS A ruffle or folded fabric placed vertically to separate swags LAMBREQUIN A cornice with a highly-curved bottom edge SEMI SHEERS Drapery usually used for privacy SHUTTERS made of wood or metal horizontal slats or of panels of fabric, which fit inside the window frame SIDE DRAPERIES Stationary or hanging draperies that may be left straight or tied back only at the sides of the window SOFT TREATMENT Window treatments such a draperies or curtains STRUCTURAL OR ARCHITECTURAL TREATMENTS Window treatments such a shutters, blinds, screens, panels, shades, wood valances SWAGS A valance made of fabric, which is pleated or draped across the top of a window TIE BACKS A cord or narrow strip of fabric to hold a drapery back VALANCE A fabric heading VENETIAN BLINDS Wooden, metal, or plastic strips controlled by turning a rod rather than by pulling a cord (may be vertical or horizontal, wide or narrow)

### 04.06.00 Composition of Functions and Inverses (PreCalc)

 A composition is a function of a function. You can make interesting designs by making compositions. Spirographs Did you ever draw a spirograph? I loved doing this when I was a kid. Who doesn't! I always wanted to make my own designs, and tried to using cardboard. (They never worked very well, but I tired.) What do spirographs have to do with math? A spirograph is a pattern which gets repeated in a different pattern. It is a pattern within a pattern. A composition. Spirographs are not actually functions in the Cartesian coordinate system (later we will use polar systems, and spirogaphs are functions in that system). But you can imagine taking a function of a function. This will create a new function that has different properties from the original functions. You can download the attached files, or read the same content below.

### 04.06.00 WRITING AN OUTLINE

 You should be finished with your reading assignment novel by this point. For this assignment, you will be required to draft an outline for your essay which includes the theme you’ve chosen to write about and specific examples from the book that illustrate that theme. Here is an example: Theme: In coming from innocence to maturity, one has to confront evil and inequality in the world. Support: a) The Symbol of the killing of a mockingbird represents those who would attempt to harm or destroy innocence. Miss Maudie’s explanation that it is a sin to kill mockingbird shows the moral imperative to stand up for those who would be harmed by evil forces in a society. b) Children begin to confront their fear of Boo Radley. He begins as a superstition and gradually Lee begins to 'flesh' him out and he becomes more human. The children begin to change their opinions of him. c) Scout is able to hold on to faith and move forward, but Jem is more damaged by the revelation of the evil that racism is in his community. Scout’s name foreshadows her ability for forge the path from childhood to maturity while maintaining faith in humanity. Before you begin your outline, view the video at the link below. Make sure that you understand the distinction between "topic," "theme," and "thesis." If that isn't clear, let me know.

### 04.06.01 Compositions (PreCalc)

 Taking the function of a function is called composition. You have actually done this before, you just probably didn't think of it like that. Consider h(x) = (3x2)5 You solve a similar problem in an earlier problem set. To simplify this, you raise the terms in the parenthesis to the 5th power. So h(x) = (3x2)5 = (3)5(x2)5 = 243x10 Easy enough. But if we look at that closely, we can break h(x) into 2 functions: ƒ(y) = y5 g(x) = 3x2 Then we can combine these to make h(x). This is an important “function” of functions, so it has its own name, composition, and it has a special notation h(x) = (ƒ ° g)(x)= ƒ (g(x)) You read this as “h of x equals ƒ of g of x”. Is (ƒ°g)(x) the same as (g°ƒ)(x) ? Well, let's check our 2 functions. (ƒ °g)(x)=(3x2)5=243 x10 (g° ƒ)(x)=3(x5)2=3 x10 These are not equal. So (ƒ °g)(x)≠(g° ƒ)(x) Let's do another example. Consider This can be “decomposed” in several different ways. We could decompose it as g(x) = x3 But ƒ(y) looks like that could also be decomposed into So and which means that So, you can take compositions of compositions. Cool. One last note about compositions. When you take a composition of 2 functions, the domain of the new function is limited by the domains of the original 2 functions. For example, consider the functions ƒ(x) = x2 The function ƒ(x) = x2 has a domain from −∞ < x < ∞ , but the function g(x) = has the limited domain of -3 ≤ x ≤ 3. If we take the composition (ƒ °g)(x) we find Which has a limited range, but should have an infinite domain. But it doesn't really. Try graphing with your graphing calculator. Do you get the same thing as when you graph y= 32 - x2? You should get something like this. The limited domain of the original function continues to limit the domain of the new function. This will be important later. Your turn: Rewrite as a composition of 2 functions.

Make a list of things you could write about and then narrow down your topic.

Your brainstorm can be in any form--freewriting, mindwebs, lists, etc.

Narrowing down a topic can be the hardest part of writing. The key to a good narrative is a good idea, and one that is manageable. Don't try to tell about your entire first date, relating every step of the day. Instead, try focusing on a single moment with all the details and showing your experience. Don't overwhelm the reader with too much 'fluff' -- focus on the details and be creative.

### 04.06.02 Identity (PreCalc)

 Remember that an identity is something that doesn't change whatever you started with? So in numbers, we have 2 identities: the additive identity, 0, and the multiplicative identity, 1. Specifically: In matrices we also had an additive identity matrix, and a multiplicative identity matrix. The 2x2 additive and multiplicative identity matrices are shown below So given a matrix We have So, these are examples of some identities. Previously we stated that the function ƒ(x) = x is the identity function. This is because when we take a composition of any function, g(x), with the identity, or a composition of the identity with any function, g(x), the result is the original function, g(x). Consider the function g(x) and the identity function ƒ(y). g(x) = x2 + 4x ƒ(y) = y Now find (ƒ °g)(x) and (g°ƒ)(x) . To find (ƒ°g)(x) we insert the function g(x) every time there is a y in ƒ(y). Likewise, to find (g° ƒ)(x) we substitute y with ƒ(x) every time it appears in g(y). This gives us (ƒ °g)(x) = (x2 + 4x) = g(x) (g°ƒ)(x) = (x)2 + 4(x) = g(x) And that is how the identity function is defined. Your turn. 3. Given ƒ(x) = x, g(y) = 7 y4, and h(z) = , show that (ƒ °g)(x) = g(x) , (g° ƒ)(x) = g(x) , (ƒ °h)(x) = h(x) , and (h° ƒ)(x) = h(x).

### 04.06.03 Inverses (PreCalc)

 An inverse will return the identity when the operation is performed. For example, consider the number . We need to find a number that when added to will give us the additive identity, 0. Perhaps you already know that - is that number. So - is the additive inverse of , and In a similar manner, the multiplicative inverse of can be found by looking for a number that will return 1 when it is multiplied by . You may realize that the multiplicative inverse of is 1⁄, and In quarter 1, we found the multiplicative inverses of 2x2 matrices, and verified that these were inverses. ￼￼￼ To find the inverse function for an arbitrary function, g(x), we look for a function that will return the identity function when composed with g(x). We denote the inverse of g(x) as g-1(x). (This notation is similar to the inverse of matrices.) This means that (g°g−1)(x)=(g−1°g)(x) = x Also similar to matrices, not all functions have an inverse. For an inverse to exist, the original function must be one-to-one. This means that ƒ(x) = x3 has an inverse, but ƒ(x) = x2 does not. It is possible to find a partial inverse to a function that is not one-to-one by limiting the domain. Below are the steps of finding an inverse: Write the equation. Exchange the x and y variables. So initially you had y = ƒ(x), you should now have x = ƒ(y). Solve the equation for y. The result will be the inverse function of ƒ(x). Example: Consider the function g(x) = 2 x - 5 write this as an equation y = 2 x -5 exchange the x and y variables x = 2 y -5 solve for y x +5 = 2 y - 5 +5 this is the inverse of g(x) You should be able to follow these steps to find the inverse of any one-to-one function. So, let's do that. 4. Given ƒ(x) = 3 x - 2, find ƒ-1(x). 5. Show that (ƒ°ƒ−1)(x) = (ƒ−1°ƒ)(x) = x

### 04.06.04 Inverses of Power Functions (PreCalc)

 It is fairly easy to find the inverse of the power functions. You remember that the roots are defined as the inverses of the powers. So the inverse of . In a similar manner, the inverse ￼of . Since only one-to-one functions have inverses, only powers raised to fractions with both odd numerators and odd denominators have inverses. (This includes the integers, as an integer can be treated as a fraction with 1 as the denominator.) In general, the power inverses are found by the following: given where m and n are odd integers. So for example, let then Let's check this. Find (h°h−1)(x) and (h−1°h)(x) . To make it clearer, write h(x) and h-1(x) as radicals. Or we can use the rules of exponents to do this. This is a bit easier to do. ￼￼￼￼Both compositions have a result of x. This means that is indeed the inverse of . We also can find the inverses of functions with even numbers in either the numerator or denominator by limiting the domain. Remember, ƒ(x) = x2 was not a one-to-one function, but was. Of course, g(x) is only defined for positive numbers. By limiting the domain of ƒ(x) to only the positive numbers, then we are able to find inverses for both ƒ(x) and g(x). This means that given ƒ(x) = x2 ƒ-1(x) does not exist, but if we only allow , then ƒ(x) = x2; likewise given g-1(x) = x2; . You should be able to find the inverse of all power functions in the same way. Your turn. 6. 7. Show that ƒ-1(x), and g-1(x) are inverses of ƒ(x) and g(x).

### 04.06.05 Graphing Inverses (PreCalc)

 The graph of any inverse is found by reflecting the function across the line y = x. If the function is not one-to-one, the resulting reflection will not actually be a function. Consider the following graphs. In the first image, ƒ(x) = x3 and are clearly inverse functions. In the second image, while the graph of ƒ(x) = x2 is a function, the reflected graph is not. This means that the function ƒ(x) = x2 does not have an inverse. Of course, we can limit the domain of ƒ(x) = x2 to positive numbers. If we do this, the resulting function does have an inverse, as shown here. has the inverse This is valid for all the power functions. If there is an even number in either the numerator or denominator, the function does not have an inverse, except for over the limited domain of (or x > 0 if the exponent is negative). If the function has odd numbers in both the numerator and denominator, the function has an inverse over its entire domain, (−∞,∞) for positive powers and (−∞,0)∪(0,∞) for negative powers. Consider the following functions of negative powers. The function has an inverse of if you limit the domain to x > 0. Similarly, does not have an inverse, but would with a limited domain. On the other hand has as an inverse for its entire domain (which is limited, but it is the same domain), and vice-versa. Now it is your turn. Given the following graphs, find the graph of their inverse functions. Indicate if the inverse exists for the entire domain, or only for a limited domain. Answers: (ƒ°g)(x) = ƒ(g(x)) = 7x4 = g(x) (g° ƒ )(x) = g( ƒ (x)) = 7x4 = g(x) ƒ-1(x) exists for the full domain of ƒ(x). ƒ-1(x) has a domain of x > 0, therefore the inverse of ƒ(x) does not exist for the full domain of ƒ(x). ƒ-1(x) has a limited domain of x ≥ 0, which corresponds to the full domain of ƒ(x).

### 04.06.06 Compositions of Functions and Inverses, Review (PreCalc)

 In this lesson we learned about compositions, identities, and inverses. Composition of a function: Given ƒ(y), g(x), then h(x) = (ƒ ° g)(x) = ƒ (g(x)) , read "ƒ of g of x", is found by replacing y with g(x) in ƒ(y). It is important to remember that ( ƒ ° g)(x) ≠ (g ° ƒ )(x) . Identity: The identity function is the function ƒ(x) = x. this function has the property that when a composition of the identity is taken with an arbitrary function g(x), or vice-versa, it returns the original function g(x). That is (ƒ ° g)(x) = (g ° ƒ)(x) = g(x) . Inverse: The inverse function, ƒ-1(x), is a function that when a composition of ƒ(x) is taken with its inverse, or vice-versa, the identity is returned. That is (ƒ ° ƒ−1)(x) = (ƒ−1 ° ƒ)(x) = x . Only one-to- one functions have inverses, although a partial inverse can be found by limiting the domain (either of the function or the inverse). To find the inverse of a function, follow these steps: Write the equation. Exchange the x and y variables. So initially you had y = ƒ(x), you should now have x = ƒ(y). Solve the equation for y. The result will be the inverse function of ƒ(x). Inverse of Power Functions: Given , then where m and n are odd integers. If m and/or n are even integers, then a partial inverse can be found by limiting the domain (either of the function of or the inverse). Graphing Inverse Functions: The graph of an inverse function is found by reflecting the function across the line y = x. The function ƒ(x) = x3 and its inverse, are shown.

### 05.02 Sentences, clauses, and phrases (Writing lab)

 When we write or talk, we use groups of words. For the sake of simplicity, we have names for different kinds of groups of words - so that we can talk or write about our talking or writing. The key unit of written communication is the sentence. A sentence begins with a capital letter and ends with a period, question mark or exclamation point. It is the smallest group of words that can stand alone (often it is said to "express a complete thought"). A sentence always has a subject and a predicate (though sometimes the subject may be understood rather than expressed, as in "Get out of here!", where the subject is understood to be "You"). A clause is a group of words that has a subject and a predicate. A clause may be: an independent clause(in which case it may be a whole sentence by itself, or a part of a complex sentence), or a dependent clause, also called a subordinate clause (in which case it must be part of a complex or compound sentence). A dependent clause is not missing any parts - the thing that makes it dependent is an extra word (or words), usually a conjunction which is meant to link or relate it to an independent clause. For example: I stayed up late so that I could study. "I stayed up late" is an independent clause, which could stand alone as a sentence. "So that I could study" is a dependent clause which can't stand alone as a sentence, but ONLY because the words "so that" link it to the first clause. If you left out "so that", "I could study" could be a complete sentence on its own. A phrase is a group of words working together to function as a single part of speech. It may have a subject, or a predicate, but doesn't necessarily have either, and never has both. Here are some examples of phrases: going to Georgia caused various problems up the stairs the strongest man in the county A simple sentence has only one clause (though it may have many phrases). Examples of simple sentences: Marian slept. The cat and dog chased each other around the house. Tom ordered a milkshake. The house has a spiral staircase, two stained glass windows, and a balcony. We stopped for groceries, talked to friends, and drove home. Before starting chores, they changed clothes. A compound sentence has two independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction (commonly, and, or, but, & so). Examples of compound sentences: We won the first game, so we had to stay for the finals. I finished running errands, but I was late. Margaret can go to the carnival, or Jared can go to the movie. He was happy, and he was pleased with his son. Another, much less common kind of compound sentence has two independent clauses connected by a semicolon and a conjunctive adverb (such as: then, thus, however, also, nevertheless, similarly, for example, in addition). Examples: We won the first three rounds; however, we lost in the finals. She told her mother; furthermore, she left a note on the refrigerator. A complex sentence has one independent clause and one dependent clause. Either clause can come first, and the dependent (sometimes called subordinate) clause begins with a subordinating conjunction (such as: because, since, that, before, after, in spite of, although, if, while, until, when, where, unless), or a relative pronoun (which, who, that). Examples of complex sentences: After we started home, we quickly got lost. We got lost after we started home. Because she was wearing white, she didn't want to fall in the mud. Lois wouldn't have minded getting muddy if she had been wearing jeans. Unless George is going to drive, Tyler can't go. Desrie likes Robert in spite of the fact that he wears twelve earrings. We went to see Paul, who is my favorite brother. [who, which, that & what can act both as the subordinating conjunction and as the subject of the dependent clause] As you might guess, a compound-complex sentence has both two independent clauses, and at least one dependent clause, in any order. Examples of compound-complex sentences: Marty was hungry, so after they finished cleaning up, they bought a pizza. Before the test started, Jeremy got sick, and Brent passed out. More explanation & examples about simple, compound, and complex sentences: A simple sentence can be stripped down to its single subject & verb. Here is a long simple sentence: Hoping to meet her brother on the evening before their departure, she carefully planned a schedule to help with her preparations. Why is this a simple sentence? Because if you get rid of all the extra modifiers, it strips down to "she planned a schedule". It has only one clause. You might think of a clause as a basic subject/verb unit. If you think of it that way, you can see that this is still a single clause even though the subject & verb are compound: George and Terry stopped and waited. It is one unit of meaning. Compound sentences: On the other hand, if we say "George stopped, and Terry waited," now we have two clauses - two units of meaning. Each unit has its own subject doing a unique thing. We could also say "George stopped, but Terry waited," or "George stopped, so Terry waited." Any of those three are compound sentences because they consist of two independent clauses, connected by a coordinating conjunction (and, but, so, or). Complex sentences The other way of connecting clauses involves subordinating conjunctions, which suggest how one of the units of meaning depends on the other. If we say "Because George stopped, Terry waited," we have a complex sentence - one independent clause (terry waited) with at least one dependent, or subordinate, clause (because George stopped). In many cases we can reverse the order of the clauses ("Terry waited because George stopped.)" A complex sentence can have clauses nested inside of clauses: Because Terry was waiting ~ while George was stopped,~ the whole convoy came to a halt~ until the tow truck arrived~ so that George's car could be hauled back home~ where a mechanic was waiting to fix it ~so that he could continue on with everyone else. That has seven clauses! Only one (the whole convoy came to a halt) is independent. Compound/complex sentences More often, complicated sentences use both ways of connecting clauses, so they have two or more independent clauses AND one or more dependent (subordinate) clauses: George stopped ~ and Terry waited ~ while the rest of the group caught up. (Two independent clauses and one dependent clause)

DAYS OF DARKNESS: NOVEMBER 1978
Utopian Nightmare--Jonestown: What Did We Learn?
by Larry D. Hatfield

… James Warren Jones was born May 13, 1931, in a tattered town called Crete in Indiana. He was different from the beginning--a Holy Roller preacher as a child, selling spider monkeys on the streets of Indianapolis to buy food as a young student and modeling himself after Father Divine, whose Peace Mission drew a cult following at the time. In a credo that would refine and warp itself until the end, he developed a set of professed beliefs, sometimes called "apostolic socialism," that ignored God while deifying social justice and worshipping the slavific power of socialism.

He became a student minister at an Indiana Methodist church in 1952. He left the Methodists because the church wouldn't desegregate, and in the 1950s founded the movement that would take various names as it evolved into Peoples Temple. In 1965, Jones and his wife, Marceline, brought the nascent temple and a handful of the faithful to California, the promised land for alternative religions.

A CHURCH IN REDWOOD VALLEY

The Joneses and their rainbow family of adopted children and about 70 followers set up in the sylvan Redwood Valley near Ukiah where relations between them and the laidback locals were uneasy but generally peaceful.

Jones quickly relocated his church to the bigger and more lucrative markets of San Francisco and Los Angeles. He moved Peoples Temple into an abandoned synagogue in The City's Fillmore district.

While attracting a growing congregation of urban blacks, he used his considerable intellectual and acting skills to bring onto his bandwagon many of San Francisco's leading politicians.

Current Mayor Brown was one of Jones' biggest cheerleaders, hailing him as a blend of Martin Luther King, Einstein and Mao. Then-Lt. Gov. Mervyn Dymally was another. Mayor George Moscone was still another, naming Jones to head his Housing Commission and, some said, owing his razor-thin election to the few hundred illegal voters Jones allegedly and other seekers were hearing from Jones' pulpit.

…But the politics of the day also fed the paranoia in Jones. He believed the government was conspiring to continue the war in Vietnam and spy on such groups as the Black Panthers. The government was not to be trusted.

The government also was working covertly against Jones and the temple, seeking to short-circuit the drive for a better society. Jones believed all this and so, to an almost universal extent, did the Temple congregation.

So Jones moved the temple and 1,000 or so followers to Guyana's outback, winning a 25-year lease on 3,852 acres in the Orinoco River basin near the disputed border with Venezuela.

A small group of temple pioneers moved in 1974 to what was to become Jonestown, far from the hostile attacks of media, government and others. The lease from the Guyana government required the Peoples Temple Agricultural Project to "cultivate and beneficially occupy" at least one-fifth of the land by 1976.

Temple members raised livestock and grew pineapple, cassava, eddoes and other tropical fruits and vegetables. Charles Garry, Peoples Temple's San Francisco lawyer, called it a paradise.

But there was trouble in paradise. The camp never became agriculturally self-sustaining and the swift tropical diseases of the jungle ran rampant. At the end, only a third of the residents were able-bodied. Worse, critics said, it was a prison camp--people were not allowed to leave. Abusive practices such as beatings and forced sex, long-rumored but little-reported at the San Francisco church, escalated. Jones' deteriorating mental stability made him increasingly erratic and he demanded utter, unquestioning loyalty.

Agencies from the State Department and the CIA to the Internal Revenue Service and the Postal Service were investigating or taking legal action against Peoples Temple for mail fraud, wresting Social Security checks from members, arms and narcotics trafficking, and other crimes, real or imagined.

Aiding and abetting the conspiracy in the eyes of Jones and his followers were the few temple defectors and families of members who were getting attention from the hostile North American media.

Against this background, Jones, who was white, and his predominantly white inner circle had faithful followers practice mass suicide in a series of "white nights." Such a drastic end was the only possible response to the vast and growing outside threat, Jones preached. The people believed him.

CONGRESSMAN'S VISIT

The final act began to unfold when Ryan, a respected Democratic congressman from San Mateo County with a taste for headlines, lead a delegation of newsmen and a group of family members called the Concerned Relatives to Jonestown to investigate allegations of thought control, imprisonment, drug- and gun-running.

Ryan was knifed--superficially--during the visit. When he was ready to leave, several Jonestown residents asked to leave with him, an action that apparently triggered the subsequent massacre of Ryan, Robinson and the others at Port Kaituma.

The incredible scene of mass death quickly followed at Jonestown.

"We died because you would not let us live," wrote temple insider Annie Moore in her suicide note.

Among those who survived was Jim Jones' son, Stephan, who was away with the camp's basketball team. It was left to the younger Jones, who had broken with his father and since has denounced him repeatedly, to declare Jim Jones' most durable epitaph. In a recent ABC television visit to Jonestown, Stephan Jones said simply, "My father was a fraud."

While no one denies that Jones was a madman, some feel the people of Jonestown have been unfairly characterized as mindless zombies.

"The people who died in Jonestown were sweet, altruistic people. One the of the tragedies of Jonestown is that people haven't paid attention to that," says Timothy Stoen, whose son, John Victor, died at Jonestown. Stoen played a pivotal role in a custody battle with Jones that helped precipitate the murder-suicides. Among Ryan's reasons for going to Guyana was the custody fight.

"No single theory could possibly explain the many complex and related issues that led the members of the Peoples Temple to leave family, friends and church communities and take residence in the jungle of Jonestown," says Archie Smith Jr., professor of pastoral psychology at the Pacific School of Religion and Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley. "Labeled by many as sick, dysfunctional or disadvantaged, (they) were seeking an alternative to the status quo, new and just ways of living and being in the world."

"Amidst all the attention that was focused on Jim Jones, the people were accorded scarcely any respect as thinking, feeling, caring human beings....The dehumanizing of the victims of Jonestown by the journalistic community was tantamount to the withholding of permission to grieve."

TRAGIC CHANGE IN DIRECTION

Maaga says the lessons of Jonestown are to be learned by trying to figure out why the committed veered so tragically from their vision of a better world.

"I think things went right earlier in the movement," Maaga says, pointing to the temple's successful social programs in San Francisco.

"What we should be talking about is what went right and when did it go wrong," she said, suggesting the answers might prevent similar tragedies. "I don't think Peoples Temple was a singular example of a self-righteous religion gone horribly awry.

"What was important about it was what they (the members) were--as people--not just how they died."

Rebecca Moore, a University of North Dakota professor of religion and philosophy, lost her sisters Carolyn Layton and Annie Moore at Jonestown, as well as her nephew, Jim-Jon Prokes.

She says some of the still-unexplored questions are whether people in San Francisco could have prevented the tragedy by reining in Jones before he was all-powerful and crazy; what responsibility Willie Brown and others had before and after the catastrophe; and the role of the black church.

"At times I despair that we've learned nothing," Moore says. "By that I mean that people continue to demonize (Jones) and forget the others.

"As a society we fail to take seriously the very strong and powerful desire, or hunger, for community, a community of people working for social change. The people in Jonestown were trying to create a Utopian society, racial justice and social equality. Granted, there were internal contradictions, but they were one of the few groups intentionally addressing the problem of racism and trying concretely to do something about it."

The media, Moore says, almost always dwells on the dead bodies and on Jones himself; the government has swept under the rug all understanding of Jonestown and of its own role. No official inquiry was held in the United States and the Guyanan investigation was almost laughably superficial.

Jonestown, Berkeley's Smith warns, "was not an anomaly. Rather, it was a product of the evolving ethos of our time, an ethos that tends to repress and trivialize the essentially religious impulse. The social and historical forces that gave rise to Jonestown 20 years ago operate today."

A CENTRAL LESSON UNLEARNED

"Perhaps the biggest heartache of all," Sawyer says, "is that our country and our churches still have not sought an answer to the question of why the people joined this movement, and so still have not discerned the central lesson of Jonestown. Why, indeed, were white idealists and black Christians drawn to a movement that promised them sanctuary from America's failure to honor her promises of equality and justice?

"Churches, like the public, were so horrified they psychologically needed to distance themselves...to handle the reality of it. Most people know what Jonestown is but if you say Peoples Temple, people will have a blank look. They don't know there was a longstanding social change movement.

"And they're no more informed today than they were 20 years ago. I hope this anniversary will not be just a replay of Jim Jones as a crazy man but that there is some conscientious effort to make America understand. It takes two or three decades before people start asking the right questions....There hasn't been that kind of soul-searching.

"It's important to do this. We have to have sense of the wounds that are still there."

"What should we be talking about?" asks Jackie Speier, who was elected to the California Assembly after the tragedy and on Tuesday was elected to the state Senate.

"We should be talking about the fact that the menace of cults still lingers. Cults are still around. They're all around us. Many continue to operate under the guise of being religious, under the guise of religiosity and the First Amendment, violating state and federal laws (while) the government again looks the other way."

Dr. Hardat Sukhdeo, a Guyana-born psychiatrist who treated Jonestown survivors, says the conditions that created Peoples Temple could create a similar movement.

People joined the temple because "they needed to have this type of togetherness and leadership and somebody to tell them what to do and when to do it," said Sukhdeo, of Rutgers University.

Sukhdeo sees the majority of temple members, mostly black, as largely alienated and at sea. The Peoples Temple was more of a place to improve their own lives than to achieve the societal do-goodism espoused by young whites who joined.

"They wanted something like the cult to say, 'Yes, we know the truth. Yes, we have the answers.' They were lost, they were angry and they didn't feel they belonged to society."

Nothing has changed, he says: Groups such as Branch Davidian and Heaven's Gate prove that the attraction to cults remains.

A DISTRUST OF RELIGION

The Rev. Robert Warren Cromey, rector of San Francisco's Trinity Episcopal Church, says that a "sad part of Jonestown is it has sent a message of distrust of religion, particularly the small sect religions....(There is) a sense of 'if you're religious, this is what might happen to you.'

"But on the positive side, people are looking more critically before getting involved in religious programs, especially the more fringe type of things. Look at the kind of scrutiny now given to Hare Krishna, Scientology and the like. That's as it should be."

Timothy Stoen also warns of the dangers of cults.

"There are a lot of Jim Jones wannabes out there," said Stoen, who recently moved to Colorado Springs from Mendocino. "...You can't wish them away...(but) one hopefully can learn from (Peoples Temple) that these things can be lethal and there comes a point early on when you can do something about it."

The psychological isolation that leads people to seek groups like Peoples Temple still exists, he says, urging families of cultists to ask questions, challenge the groups and otherwise get involved.

"People just have to take an even-handed look that this is kind of a sign of our times--people need structure, community, etc. If mainline churches don't provide it, there'll be cults. Those cults will be there serving some sort of need."

What makes people follow extreme leaders and do such tragic and often uncharacteristic things?
In my research I have found that many extreme movements have the following things in common:

Members are taken away from their homes and familiar surroundings
Members are encouraged to break ties with outside family and friends
Material possessions are taken away
People are often given new names
The group fosters a feeling of “us” vs. “them”, paranoia
Very structured way of life, strict rules
Often required to dress the same

### 05.06 Investigate the emerging civil rights movements for women and African-Americans in the early 20th century. (U.S. History)

 Investigate the emerging civil rights movements for women and African-Americans in the early 20th century.

Lesson Notes:

Women

Ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920 giving women the right to vote in national elections was only the opening of a door dealing with women's rights. American women pursued new lifestyles and assumed new jobs and different roles in society during the 1920s. Workplace opportunities and trends in family life are still major issues for women today.

By the 1920s, the experiences of World War I, the draw of cities and changing attitudes had opened up a new world for many young Americans. In the rebellious, pleasure-loving atmosphere of the Twenties, many women began to assert their independence, reject the values of their parents, and demand the same freedoms as men. During the 1920s, a new ideal emerged for some women: the flapper. She was an emancipated young woman who embraced the new fashions and urban attitudes of the day. Close-fitting felt hats, bright waistless dresses an inch above the knees, silk stockings and strings of beads replaced the dark and prim ankle-length dresses, corsets, and petticoats of the late-19th century Victorian days. Many young women cut their long hair into boyish bobs.

Many young women became more assertive. In their bid for equal status with men, some began smoking cigarettes, drinking in public, and talking openly about sex--actions that would have ruined their reputations not too many years before. They danced to new, suggestive dances like the tango, Charleston, the fox trot and the shimmy. Along with these changes, the attitudes toward marriage changed as well. Many middle-class men and women began to view marriage as more of an equal partnership, although housework and child-rearing remained a woman's job.

The fast-changing world of the "Roaring Twenties" produced new roles for women in the workplace and new trends in family life. The booming economy opened new work opportunities for women in offices, factories, stores, and professions. That same economy produced time-saving appliances and products also reshaped the roles of housewives and mothers.

Although women had worked successfully during the war, afterwards employers turned to the returning soldiers to fill positions in industry. Children, who had been thrown in with adults in factory work, farm labor, and apprenticeships, spent most of their days at school and in organized activities with others their own age. Factory owners supported the education of children because an educated child became a more versatile and productive adult.

African-American Voices

During the 1920s, African Americans set new goals for themselves as they moved north to the nation's largest cities. Between 1910 and 1920, in a movement known as the Great Migration, hundreds of thousands of African Americans had uprooted themselves from their homes in the South and moved north and to California in search of jobs. Tensions between the races escalated in the years prior to 1920, culminating, in the summer of 1919, in some 25 urban race riots. Leading the way was James Weldon Johnson, executive secretary of the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People), an organization founded in 1909 to protest racial violence and fight for legislation to protect African-American rights. The NAACP made antilynching laws one of its main priorities.

Another approach was taken by Marcus Garvey, an immigrant from Jamaica, who believed that African Americans should build a separate society. His more radical message of black pride aroused the hopes of many. Garvey lured followers with programs to promote African-American businesses. He also encouraged his followers to "return to Africa" and help build a mighty nation. Despite the appeal of Garvey's movement, support for it declined in the mid-1920s when he was convicted of mail fraud and jailed.

But the most powerful and long-lasting movement of black pride is known as the Harlem Renaissance. It was a creative literary and musical movement that spoke for all African-Americans throughout America. Many Southern blacks who migrated north moved to Harlem, a neighborhood on the northern end of Manhattan Island. In the 1920s Harlem became the world's largest black urban community with residents from the South, the West Indies, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Haiti.

Conclusion

The liberated women and Harlem Renaissance represented two parts of the great social and cultural changes that swept America in the 1920s. The period was characterized by economic prosperity, new ideas, changing values, and personal freedom. The Twenties also brought the nation important new developments in art, literature, and music. Most of these changes were lasting. The economic boom, however, was not.

### 05.06 Lesson 5F: Stem Changing Verbs: O – UE (Poder/Dormir) (Spanish I)

 Lesson 5F Stem Changing Verbs: O – UE (Poder/Dormir) [A copy of this lesson is available in a PDF file!! If you prefer to use this type of document, just click on the following link to complete this lesson: SpI_Lesson5F]              In lesson 4H, we learned about another type of irregular verbs, “stem changing verbs” and specifically, the verb stems that change from “e” to “ie” (Querer/Preferir). You may want to go back and review that lesson because this lesson follows the same format, but in this lesson, we’ll talk about verbs stems that change from “o” to “ue”. (Remember: a verb “stem” is the beginning part of a verb, that is in front of the verb endings of “-ar”, “-er”, or “ir”. These verbs are appropriately called “stem changing verbs” because they have all the “regular” verb endings, but it is the stem of the verb that changes!). As examples of this stem changing verb, we will be using two very common Spanish verbs “poder – to be able to/can” and “dormir – to sleep”.            The stems for these verbs are “poder – pod...” (taking off the “-er” ending) and “dormir – dorm…” (taking off the “-ir” ending). The endings are the same as regular “-er” and “-ir” verbs but in the stems, “ue” replaces the “o”. The stems become “poder – pued...” and “dormir – duerm…” for all forms, except for in the nosotros(as) and vosotros(as) forms!! (¡¡Ojo!!: In the nosotros(as) and vosotros(as) forms, the verb uses the “unchanged” stems, “poder – pod…” and “dormir – dorm…” See the chart below:            Other “o” to “ue” stem changing verbs: Learn these other verbs below as they are conjugated exactly as the verbs above:            This is a fabulous presentation of this type of stem changing verbs (o to ue). Click on the following link, enter your name, and click on level A. On the left side, click on “Unidad 4”, “Lección 2”, “Gramática”, and then “Presentación: gramática 1”. A window will open with two cute animated marks (save this fun part for the end!!).

After finishing these 5 activities, click on the “Level B” circle in the upper right of the screen. Now you will have 5 more activities to practice. Then go on to “Level C” for another 5 practice pages!! Wasn’t this a great site with lots of good practice??!!! Summary of Lesson: You should now know how to conjugate stem changing (o to ue) verbs in the present tense. Once again, Professor Jason has done a great video clip explaining “stem changing verbs”. These verbs can also be called “boot verbs” … do you see why?? Practice Exercises: Remember ...

### 05.06 Solve Quadratics with Complex Solutions (Math Level 2)

 Solve quadratic that have complex roots.

Lesson material is from Beginning Algebra http://2012books.lardbucket.org that has a Creative Commons by-nc-sa 3.0 license.

We complete our study of solutions to quadratic equations by including solutions involving imaginary roots

Let's review a little bit before moving on. We know that $\sqrt{-9}$ is not a real number.

$\sqrt{-9}={\color{Blue} ?}$      or      $\left ( {\color{Blue} ?} \right )^{2}=-9$

There is no real number that when squared results in a negative number. We begin to resolve this issue by defining the imaginary unit, $i$, as the square root of −1.

$i=\sqrt{-1}$    and    $i^{2}=-1$

To express a square root of a negative number in terms of the imaginary unit $i$, we use the following property where a represents any non-negative real number:

$\sqrt{-a}=\sqrt{-1\cdot a}=\sqrt{-1}\cdot \sqrt{a}=i\sqrt{a}$

With this we can write

$\sqrt{-9}=\sqrt{-1\cdot 9}=\sqrt{-1}\cdot \sqrt{9}=i\cdot 3=3i$

If $\sqrt{-9}=3i$, then we would expect that $3i$ squared will equal −9:

$(3i)^{2}=9i^{2}=9\cdot -1=-9$

In this way any square root of a negative real number can be written in terms of the imaginary unit. Such a number is often called an imaginary number.

http://www.onemathematicalcat.org

Example 1

Rewrite in terms of the imaginary unit $i$.

a. $\sqrt{-7}$

b. $\sqrt{-25}$

c. $\sqrt{-72}$

Solution:

a. $\sqrt{-7}=\sqrt{-1\cdot 7}=\sqrt{-1}\cdot \sqrt{7}=i\sqrt{7}$

b. $\sqrt{-25}=\sqrt{-1\cdot 25}=\sqrt{-1}\cdot \sqrt{25}=i\cdot 5=5i$

c. $\sqrt{-72}=\sqrt{-1\cdot36\cdot 2}=\sqrt{-1}\cdot \sqrt{36}\cdot \sqrt{2}=i\cdot6\cdot \sqrt{2} =6i\sqrt{2}$

Notation Note: When an imaginary number involves a radical, we place $i$ in front of the radical. Consider the following:

$6i\sqrt{2}=6\sqrt{2}i$

Since multiplication is commutative, these numbers are equivalent. However, in the form $6\sqrt{2}i$ the imaginary unit $i$ is often misinterpreted to be part of the radicand. To avoid this confusion, it is a best practice to place $i$ in front of the radical and use $6i\sqrt{2}$.

Now let's apply this to solving quadratic equations that involve including solutions involving imaginary roots

Example 1: Solve using the quadratic formula: x2−2x + 5 = 0

Solution: Begin by identifying a, b, and c: a = 1, b = -2, and c = 5

Substitute these values into the quadratic formula and then simplify.

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-{\color{Red} b}\pm\sqrt{{\color{Red} b}^{2}-4{\color{Blue} a}{\color{Green} c}} }{2{\color{Blue} a}}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-({\color{Red} -2})\pm\sqrt{({\color{Red} -2})^{2}-4({\color{Blue} 1})({\color{Green} 5})} }{2({\color{Blue} 1})}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{2\pm \sqrt{4-20}}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{2\pm \sqrt{-16}}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{2\pm 4i}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{2}{3}\pm \frac{4i}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=1\pm 2i$

Check these solutions by substituting them into the original equation.

Answer: The solutions are 1−2i and 1 + 2i.

The equation may not be given in standard form. The general steps for solving using the quadratic formula are outlined in the following example.

Example 2: Solve: (2x + 1)(x − 3) = x − 8.

Solution:

Step 1: Write the quadratic equation in standard form:

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv (2x+1)(x-3) = -8$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv 2x^{2}-6x+x-3 = x-8$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv 2x^{2}-5x-3 = x-8$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv 2x^{2}-6x+5=0$

Step 2: Identify a, b, and c for use in the quadratic formula: a = 2, b = - 6, c = 5

Step 3: Substitute the appropriate values into the quadratic formula and then simplify.

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-{\color{Red} b}\pm\sqrt{{\color{Red} b}^{2}-4{\color{Blue} a}{\color{Green} c}} }{2{\color{Blue} a}}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-{\color{Red} (-6)}\pm\sqrt{{\color{Red} (-6)}^{2}-4{\color{Blue} (2)}{\color{Green} (5)}} }{2{\color{Blue} (2)}}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{6\pm \sqrt{36-40}}{4}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{6\pm \sqrt{-4}}{4}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{6\pm 2i}{4}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{6}{4}\pm \frac{2i}{4}$$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{6}{4}\pm \frac{1}{2}i$

Answer: The solution is $\dpi{100} \fn_phv \frac{3}{2} \pm \frac{1}{2} i$. The check is optional.

Example 3: Solve: x(x + 2) = - 19

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x(x+2)=-19$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x^{2}+2x=-19$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x^{2}+2x+19 = 0$

Here a = 1, b = 2, and c = 19. Substitute these values into the quadratic formula:

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-{\color{Red} b}\pm\sqrt{{\color{Red} b}^{2}-4{\color{Blue} a}{\color{Green} c}} }{2{\color{Blue} a}}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-{\color{Red} (-2)}\pm\sqrt{{\color{Red} 2}^{2}-4{\color{Blue} (1)}{\color{Green} (19)}} }{2{\color{Blue} (1)}}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-2\pm \sqrt{4-76}}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-2\pm \sqrt{-72}}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-2\pm \sqrt{-1\cdot 36\cdot 2}}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-2\pm 6i\sqrt{ 2}}{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=\frac{-2}{2}\pm 6i\sqrt{2}$

$\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=-1\pm 3i\sqrt{2}$

Answer: The solutions are $\dpi{100} \fn_phv x=-1\pm 3i\sqrt{2}$

Notation Note

Consider the following: $\dpi{100} \fn_phv -1+3i\sqrt{2}= -1+3\sqrt{2}i$

Both numbers are equivalent and $\dpi{100} \fn_phv -1+3\sqrt{2}i$ is in standard form, where the real part is $\dpi{100} \fn_phv -1$ and the imaginary part is $\dpi{100} \fn_phv 3\sqrt{2}$. However, this number is often expressed as $\dpi{100} \fn_phv -1+3i\sqrt{2}$ to avoid the possibility of misinterpreting the imaginary unit as part of the radicand.

Try this! Solve: $\dpi{100} \fn_phv (2x+3)(x+5) = 5x+4.$

Answer: $\dpi{100} \fn_phv \frac{-4\pm i\sqrt{6}}{2} = -2\pm \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}i$

### 05.06 Spelling commonly misspelled words (English 9)

 Spell correctly.

Why is English spelling so inconsistent and tricky?
It ties back into the history of the English language.

"In spelling, the [English] language was assimilating the consequences of having a civil service of French scribes, who paid little attention to the traditions of English spelling that had developed in Anglo-Saxon times. Not only did French qu arrive, replacing Old English cw (as in queen), but ch replaced c (in words such as church--Old English cirice), sh and sch replaced sc (as in ship--Old English scip), and much more. Vowels were written in a great number of ways. Much of the irregularity of modern English spelling derives from the forcing together of Old English and French systems of spelling in the Middle Ages. People struggled to find the best way of writing English throughout the period. ... Even Caxton didn't help, at times. Some of his typesetters were Dutch, and they introduced some of their own spelling conventions into their work. That is where the gh in such words as ghost comes from.

"Any desire to standardize would also have been hindered by the ... Great English Vowel Shift, [which] took place in the early 1400s. Before the shift, a word like loud would have been pronounced 'lood'; name as 'nahm'; leaf as 'layf'; mice as 'mees'. ...

"The renewed interest in classical languages and cultures, which formed part of the ethos of the Renaissance, had introduced a new perspective into spelling: etymology. Etymology is the study of the history of words, and there was a widespread view that words should show their history in the way they were spelled. These weren't classicists showing off. There was a genuine belief that it would help people if they could 'see' the original Latin in a Latin-derived English word. So someone added a b to the word typically spelled det, dett, or dette in Middle English, because the source in Latin was debitum, and it became debt, and caught on. Similarly, an o was added to peple, because it came from populum: we find both poeple and people, before the latter became the norm. An s was added to ile and iland, because of Latin insula, so we now have island. There are many more such cases. Some people nowadays find it hard to understand why there are so many 'silent letters' of this kind in English. It is because other people thought they were helping."

David Crystal, The Fight for English: How language pundits ate, shot, and left, Oxford, 2006, pp. 26-9.

SpellingEng9205 Loose Talk poster: NARA, ca. 1944, public domaine
Yes, spelling can be a nuisance, but yes, it is important. Here are some general guidelines to help you become a better speller:

1) Learn some of the basic rules that work MOST of the time, for instance:

i before e except after c, or when sounded as "ay" as in neighbor or weigh

When you add a suffix to a word which ends with a single vowel followed by a single consonant, double the consonant (fit becomes fitted or fitting); when you add a suffix that begins with a vowel to a word that ends in a silent e, drop the e and add the suffix (fade becomed fading or faded; fate becomes fated, or fateful).

For words that end in a consonant & y, change the y to i UNLESS the suffix begins with i (fry becomes frying or fries or fried).

2) Use the spell-check on your computer, but

3) Don't depend on ONLY the computer spell-check. Your computer doesn't know what word you meant to spell, only whether the words you used match a long list of possible words.

4) Ask a friend or family member who is a good speller to check your work.

5) Make a list of words you have trouble with, and work on learning one of them each day or week.

Common Words that Cause Spelling Errors

1) there refers to a place (here and there).
they're is the contraction for "they are" (They're coming over later.)
their is the possessive of they, which is why the e comes before the i. (Don't touch their fancy car.)

2)Two is the number 2. (I want two cookies.)
too may mean "also" (I want cake, too.) or may add emphasis (It was too hot.)
to is a preposition or part of the infinitive (I want to go to the store.)

3) Conscious means you know what is going on around you (you haven't been knocked out). (He was conscious of them all staring at him.)
Conscience is the part of your mind that tells you something is morally right or wrong. (Her conscience was bothering her because she had lied to her best friend.)

4)which is a pronoun referring to something.(I couldn't decide which one to buy.)
witch is a woman with magical (often evil) powers. (The witch cast a spell to turn the prince into a frog.)

5) were is the past tense of "are". (They were sad.)
where refers to a place. (Where are we going?)

6) loose is the opposite of tight. (The screw had worked loose and fallen off.)
lose is the verb related to lost. (I didn't want to lose my earring.)

7) all right is the only correct way to write this expression (there is no such word as "alright").

8)desert is a dry place. (Cactus grow in the desert.)
dessert is the treat you eat after dinner. (We're having apple pie for dessert.)
Note that the above two words break the usual pronunciation rule that in two syllable words, vowels followed by a single consonant are long, and vowels followed by a double consonant are short.
Desert (pronounced like "dessert" with a long E in the first syllable) can also be a verb meaning to leave (I can't imagine how a mother could desert her children.)

9) everyday is always an adjective. (I wore my everyday clothes except to church.)
If you mean something that happens day after day, you write every day. (I get up before noon every day.)

10) definitely means certainly (I definitely want to graduate from high school.)
defiantly means with defiance (The demonstrators shouted defiantly at the police.)

11) Pay attention to the difference between into and in to especially if preceded by "turned":
Correct - The sorceress turned them into frogs.
Possibly confusing - I turned into a parking lot. (Did you turn so as to arrive in a parking lot, or were you transformed from a human into flat asphalt?)
Correct - He turned them in to the police.
Incorrect: He turned them into the police.
Correct - I went in to see what was going on.
Correct - I was accepted into the club.

### 05.06 Unit 5 quiz (Java)

 teacher-scored 1 points possible 30 minutes

Read This - Review Notes - Study these for exam. This exam is a compilation of questions from the previous quizzes. You should do very well on this quiz as you have seen all the questions before. I have also included a review of some key ideas for you. You should also read the sample quizzes and answers from CHAPTER 1 and CHAPTER 2 from the book .

Here is some review information that may be covered on the quiz. But nevertheless, you should know this information very well. That is why this is basically a review quiz It also includes some information on the GUI and JoptionPane objects. Save it for referenece later. It contains some some information on additional functions. (methods) we will use.
Review this information and then take the unit 5 quiz.

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

(the information on GUI and Swing will be covered later. There will no questions on this quiz.)

* An application is a program that executes using the Java interpreter after it has been compiled to bytecode
* Blank lines, spaces, carriage returns, and tab characters are known as white space and help in making your source code more readable.
* The first line of the main method must be defined as follows
public static void main(String args[])

* A left brace is read as “begin” and right brace is read as “end”
* Java is case sensitive, upper and lower case letters are considered differently
* Method System.out.println displays or prints a line of information in the command window. When println is finished it finishes with a carriage return and places the cursor on the next line. System.out.print leaves the cursor on the same line… no carriage return
* Every statement must end with a semicolon. Not every line, but every statement.
* Identifiers must begin with a letter
* Identifiers must only contain letters, digits, and the underscore _
* Keywords are reserved words, reserved for Java
* Keywords must all appear in lowercase letters.
* Standard practice and good style states that all Java class names begin with a capital letter, if the class name contains more that one word, the first letter of each word should be capitalized. This is called camel case.
* Keyword class introduces a class definition and immediately followed by a class name.
* Methods are able to perform tasks and return information (if necessary) when they are finished.
* Java applications all begin at method main
* A static method is called by following its class name by a dot and the name of the method.
* The System.exit (0) method terminates an application that uses a GUI. Not necessary in the console window.
* A variable is a location in computer memory where data is stored. The book refers to this as a "box"
* Variable names must be a valid identifier
* Variables all have a NAME, a TYPE , and a VALUE
* All variables have to be declared, it is helpful to read the declaration from right to left and substitute the words “of Type” for the space. The declaration String myname; is read “variable myname is of type string”

* Declarations end with semi-colons;
* There are 8 primitive data types -- int, short, byte, long, char, boolean, float, double.
* int, short, byte, long are all integers (whole number)
* float, double are real numbers, they contain a decimal, double have the greater precision.
* char is any single character that could be typed from the keyboard.
* Boolean is either true or false
* import adds java packages (classes, methods, and commands) to your program, you “check them out” of the java class library.
* The core java classes are called “java”
* The extension java classes are called “javax”
* import javax.swing.* means use ALL the swing methods and classes
* swing is the java package for familiar windows GUI interface classes and methods
* Source code is what you the human create
* Object code is what the java compiler creates
* Java has its own type of object code called BYTECODE
* Syntax errors are errors that must be corrected before the compiler can finish creating the bytecode.
* Semantic errors are errors in logic that can generate incorrect results.

Class/Methods/Functions used so far:
JOptionPane - a class to provide the user a simple GUI interface

Integer.parseInt() - a method to convert a string to a number. “123” is convert to one hundred twenty three. The argument is any string. The value returned is an integer.

System.out.println()

System.out.print()

System.exit(0)

JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog() =Asks a confirming question, like yes/no/cancel.

JOptionPane.showInputDialog() = Prompt for some input.

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() = Tell the user about something that’s happened.

JOptionPane.showOptionDialog = The Grand Unification of the above three

Key in the following program to see what each of these methods does:

1. In jcreator start a new project, delete the template code, and key in the following. Compile it and run… Change some of the string values to see what they do.

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class Example2 {

public static void main( String[] args) {

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Welcome to Java Programming");

JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"enter a number");

JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null,"Would you like to exit");

System.exit( 0);

}

}

### 05.06.00 - THE HERO WITHIN

 Perhaps the archetype of the Hero's Journey has transcended time and place because it touches on the very essence of human experience. People everywhere throughout time have experienced crises and calls to adventure. To accept such calls is to embrace growth, change and transformation. An awareness of the Hero's Journey, consequently, provides us a map to understand and interpret our lives. As we learn to view life as a journey, we become better equipped to give life-enhancing meaning to our experiences. Not all of life's calls and challenges are of epic proportion. Indeed, virtually anything that requires us to move out of our comfort zone--a challenging class, a new job, even writing an essay--may serve as a catalyst for personal development. For this next activity, I'd like you to recreate a time in your life when you elected (or were perhaps compelled) to stretch and to grow. You have just completed step 1 of this essay in the previous activity. Now for step 2, write the rough draft. As part of your narrative, explain which elements of the Hero's Journey were present in your ordeal. (i.e., what kind of preparation did you have? Were there any helpers or mentor figures? How did the trial test you? Did you encounter disappointing setbacks or periods of self-doubt? How did you grow or develop as a result of the ordeal? With whom did you share your ultimate success with? How did they benefit as a result?) Now, I’d like you to practice step 3 in writing drafts, by sharpening the sentences and polishing just the introductory paragraph. For this assignment, turn in both steps: the rough draft and the revised introductory paragraph.

### 05.06.01 Bisection Method (PreCalc)

 The final way to find these illusive non-rational zeros of polynomials (and let's be honest, most polynomials are going to fall in this category) is by using a more sophisticated method of guess and check. Useful Fact If ƒ(x) is a polynomial function and and b are numbers such that ƒ() > 0 and ƒ(b) < 0, then the function ƒ(x) has at least one zero between and b. (This is also called the locator theorem.) So what? Well, we can use this information to find irrational zeros, to whatever precision you wish. (Precision basically means “how many decimal places.”) There are several techniques to narrow down these zeros, but since this is a pre-calculus class, we won't get too sophisticated. So any numerical method of solving a problem will start with a guess, calculate the value, then make another guess. You keep doing this, moving closer to the “real” answer, until you are as precise as you wish. It is simpler to show you how to do this then explain it. You should follow along on you calculator. Consider the polynomial ƒ(x) = 6 x4 – 3 x2 + 4 x – 1 We already looked for rational roots of this polynomial, and determined there are none. We did this by trying all the possible rational roots. You may remember that: While none of these numbers are zero, some get closer than others. In particular, is close to zero. Notice that is positive. So 1⁄3 will be our a from the previous theorem. We need a number that is less than zero as well. Starting as close to zero as possible will help us find the ￼￼￼￼“real” zero faster. So select for the negative term. 1⁄6 will be our b ￼￼￼￼from the previous theorem. We know that the actual zero is between 1⁄3 and 1⁄6. So for our next guess, select the number halfway between these. In particular (I worked through this problem already, so I know the values of ƒ(x). Therefore, I label each new guess with an if ƒ(x) is positive, and b if ƒ(x) is negative. I think this will help make it more clear, but it also means the labels will appear somewhat random. When you do this yourself, you can label things however you want, but remember, you are always making your next guess between a positive ƒ(x) and a negative f(x').) Now, find ƒ(bi) This is not zero, but it is closer than . It is also negative. This means that the actual zero is between 1⁄3 and 1⁄4. So, we guess again. This time we want to guess the number that is halfway between 1⁄3 and 1⁄4 or This number is even closer to zero, and still negative. So our next guess will be halfway between 1⁄3 and 7⁄24 This answer is positive, so we are now looking for a number between 5⁄16 and 7⁄24. Guess halfway between those or: As you can see, we are getting closer. We are at zero to one decimal point, and the number is also the same number to one decimal point. So, if that is all the closer you want to get, you could report that the zero is at x = 0.3. However, I am going to ask you to get even closer. Again, choose a number halfway between i and biii. Which is zero to 2 decimal points (the 6 rounds up), so let's keep going. And repeat. We now want to find a number between ii and biv. We are still only zero to 2 decimal places, so keep going. Notice that both ƒ(ii) and ƒ(iii) are positive, while ƒ(biv) is negative. So we are looking for a number between aiii and biv. And we are still only at 2 decimal places. Each time we repeat this process is an iteration. We will stop when we reach convergence. To reach convergence, first we decide (in advance) how close we want to get. Then we stop when we get there. We can base the convergence on many different criteria. For example, we could say that we want ƒ() to equal zero to 4 decimal places. Or we could say that we want a and b to equal each other to 3 decimal places. Or we could say that we want ƒ(b) to be within 10% of ƒ(). Etc. These are all valid “end point” criteria. Since we have already determined that there are no rational zeros, the zero will be an approximation anyway. You just need to figure out how close you want the answer. (Real problems are solved this way all the time.) Also, since this is such a repetitive process, it is an ideal computer problem. And people write programs all the time to solve problems like this. I have been doing this by using the “Entry” button on my calculator (this button will redisplay your previous entry, which you can then modify). You could also program a spreadsheet to do the iterations. In general, you do not want to do this by hand over and over. You should notice that we are not getting to zero very fast. This is a problem with all numerical methods. Your first few steps get you close to zero quickly. But each step after that is smaller and smaller. If you really wanted to find the complete irrational number that is the zero for this function, it would take you forever. So, with that in mind, I am going to stop when a equals b to 3 decimal places. We currently have iv = 0.30794... biv = 0.30729... Since that 9 rounds up but the 2 rounds down, I only have 2 decimal places. My next 2 iterations gets me v = 0.307617... ƒ(v) = 0.00010877... bv = 0.307454 ƒ(bv) = -0.00015345... We now have ƒ(x) = 0 to 3 decimal places, and = b to 2 decimal places (that 6 rounds up, but the 4 rounds down). So keep going. vi = 0.3075358... ƒ(v) = 0.0000787... bv = 0.307495... ƒ(bv) = -0.0000373... Both of these values round to 0.3075, so they are the same number to 4 decimal places, and we have convergence. (Notice that we actually skipped our 3 decimal place convergence. That happens when the next digit is 5, it is okay.) Now, we can report that a zero for this function is x = 0.3075 Are we done? Well, not really. This is an polynomial of even power with a positive coefficient. This means that the graph goes up at both the right end and the left end. So, if it crossed the x-axis once, it has to cross it again. (For the same reason, an odd function must have at least 1 zero.) At this point, I could use Descartes rule of signs to try and figure out how many more zeros I am looking for, and what their signs are. I am not going to ask you to use the rule, but you may want to familiarize yourself with it. It is only has limited usefulness, since it doesn't tell you how many zeros you have. But it does put some constraints on these zeros. Descartes rule of signs tells you to consider how many times the coefficients of ƒ(x) change signs. In our case ƒ(x) = 6 x4 – 3 x2 + 4 x – 1 The signs of the coefficients are +– + – So they change signs 3 times. This means that there are either 3 or 1 positive zeros (3 – 2 = 1). We already found one positive zero. So we may need to look for 2 more, or we might have all the positive zeros of this function. The graph is increasing around this zero (remember ƒ(0.3074) is negative and ƒ(0.3075) is positive). So, it is possible that we have all the positive zeros. Next, Descartes rule of signs tells you to consider how many times the coefficients of ƒ(-x) change signs. In our case ƒ(-x) = 6 x4 – 3 x2 – 4 x – 1 The signs of the coefficients are +– – – So they change signs once. This means there is exactly one negative zero. (The subtracting 2 thing doesn't apply here, since 1 – 2 = -1, and we can't have a negative number of zeros.) So we should look for that zero.
