Fibonacci haiku


Tamales
Mmm...
Many flavors
Hot and soft 
Mom makes the best tamales
Made only in holidays with the entire family

SP#6: Unit K Concept 10- Writing a repeating decimal as a rational number using geometric series



The viewer needs to know the the geometric series formula. To get the ratio, divide the second term with the first term. To get 165/33, multiply the numerator with 5 from the problem and leave the denominator the same. To check if its right just plug in the fraction into the calculator.

SV:5 Unit J Concepts 3-4: Solving three variable system with Gaussian Elimination



The viewer needs to pay attention for any mistakes. The goal is to turn the three variable equation into row echelon form. To get the zeros first go to the bottom left, left middle and bottom middle. Make sure to use the RREF to get an idea of what z equals.

SV:4 Unit I Concept 2: Graphing logarithmic functions



The viewer needs to pay attention for any mistakes. Remember to add arrows at the end of the graph. Also calculator won't give an accurate graph so don't copy the calculator. X=h for the asymptote and the range has no restrictions.

SP:5 Unit J Concept 6: Partial Fraction Decomposition with repeated factors


Pay special attention for any mistakes. This concept deals with repeated factors to you must count up the powers. Set up the factors in A,B,C, etc. letters. Towards the end use the calculator in RREF to get the answer to do back substitution to check your answer is right. 

SP:4 Unit J Concept 5: Partial Fraction decomposition with distinct factors



Pay spacial attention for any mistakes. Make sure to separate the denominators with letters (A,B,C, etc). Multiply each denominator with what its missing and group all the like terms. At the end make sure to put A,B,C, etc. back to its corresponding fractions from the beginning.

SV:3 Unit H Concept 7

The viewer needs to pay attention for mistake. Always add the log that equals one because that's an extra clue to find the treasure. Remember multiplying in expanding is adding when dividing is subtracting.


SV:2 Unit G Concepts 1-7


The viewers has to pay attention for any mistakes. Know when it's a slant asymptote and when theirs holes. Make sure to add three key points to have an accurate graph.

SV:1 Unit F Concept 10

The viewer needs to pay attention for any mistakes I make. Make sure to dived by P/Q not Q/P. Pay extra attention to the part of the reminder theorem and when using the P/Qs.

SP#3 Unit I Concept 1: Graphing exponential functions and identifying x and y-intercept, asymptotes, domain, range


In concept 1 you'll be able to graph exponential and logarithmic functions from unit H. The graph includes intercepts, asymptotes, domain, and range. it not like other graph from algebra 1 or 2. 
Always remember the the phrase YaK Died to get the asymptotes. Solve carefully because this graph doesn't include an x-intercept and don't just leave the answer but explain why. This graph has no restrictions on the domain.

SP #2 Unit E Concept 7: Graphing polynomials, including, x and y-intercept, zeros(with multiplicities), end behavior.

     In concept 7, you'll be able to do a full evaluation of factorable polynomials and describe every aspect. The aspects are how the extremes behave, how the middle behaves, where the highest and lowest points are, where the intercepts are, and what intervals they are (increasing or decreasing).
     Pay attention in the multiplicity of zeros because its a big deal. if the multiplicity is 1 the graph goes through or if its 2 the graph bounces or if its 3 the graph curves. Each multiplicity represents a gate, so the graph can't go through unless there's a gate. To find the extremes you must use the graphing calculator using second calc.


SP #1 Unit E Concept 1: Identifying x and y-intercepts, vertex, axis of quadratics and graphing them.

     This concept will more into detail for graphing quadratics.in unit B, you only graph the quadratic using the shifts of the parent function. now you'll go a step further to make the graph more accurate and detailed by identifying the vertex, x and y-intercepts, and the axis of symmetry.
     Pay attention to start in standard form (f(x)=ax^2+bx+c) then complete the square to put the parent function form in f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k. The graph will include 2 to 4 points, those points will be the vertex, the x and y-intercepts, and the axis. To get the vertex its the (h,k) of the parent function, h will always be the opposite ex. h=2 it will be -2 for the vertex.
