Chapter 2.4

Good Evening to all, 

Today we are looking into another way to solve problems using percents with PERCENT EQUATIONS. 

 This is so similar to the last lesson, Percent Proportions!  In this lesson, use can use the chart on page 130 to help you along with solving.  You are solving for three things again : finding the percent, whole or part.

 So put this chart inside your graphic organizer in this lesson along with examples of each type.  

Personally, I find that the 3 types of equations in each of the lessons wordy.  So, if you find it this way also, listen to the 2.3 OVERVIEW.  The overview is when you are transforming the words into math symbols: for examples 

is  = (equals)

of  *(multiply)

What = X( what you are solving for)

Bet this helps, right?  Watch the videos and see if it makes sense. Ask questions as usual if you have any when we summarize in the morning.

PS: There are at least 2 MISTAKES on the titles of the videos today.  Find them and write them in your working spiral!!!

Chapter 2.3 The PERCENT Proportion

Hi Everybody,

Onward to Lesson 3, The Percent Proportion.  Does Proportions sound familiar?  It should- we are bringing over some of chapter 1 on Proportional Reasoning to this chapter. As you should recall, equivalent ratios are when 2 ratios were equal. You are taking ratio (fraction) to compare part of a number to the whole number.  Sound confusing?  Well, there is an equation for that!  Let's use this problem: 4 out of 5 is 80%  

Using the equation: Part/Whole = #/%

I bet that cleared it up right!??????? 
On page 122 there are 3 types of equations to look at: If you want to find percent, part or whole- we will look at these in the overview video.

This lesson is tricky so pay close attention

 to the details.

Chapter 2.2 Percents and Estimation

Good Evening Everyone,

Today we are marching onward with PERCENTS and we are using the skill of ESTIMATION.  
And so the answer will not be exact but an estimation.  
And with fractions we will be looking at the 
common estimation points 
of 50%, 10%, 75% and so on. 

  

Jump into the videos and watch them as many times as needed and take notes on the important stuff.  

Remember to follow a format of working on down.  That way it is organized and you won't loose your work.  CLUE: What does "of" mean in math???????????????

Chapter 2 PERCENT Lesson 1

Hello Everybody,

This week we are starting CHAPTER 2 PERCENTS!!

 Hurray hurray hurray. 

 You will be using a great deal of information from Chapter 1, so don't forget it. 

 And, remember when we were working with rates to show that objects are proportional or when we talked about slope and they looked and acted like Fractions? Well, we will continue on with things that look like fractions!  I know you are all happy about this. 

 Soon, Fractions will be your friends.

 The Essential Question in this chapter is: How can PERCENT help understand situations using money? You will find bits and pieces of this essay in every lesson in the chapter and on page 182 in your textbook, so be on the lookout for the clues...... This essay is due when we get to Lesson 8 on Simple Interest.  There will be due dates along the way, but I wanted to make sure you had a heads up on this requirement.

For Homework: Listen to the videos as many times as needed and take notes!!!!!!

Chapter 1.7 Constant Rate of Change

Good Evening to all and welcome to another riveting lesson on the blog.......

A RATE OF CHANGE is where one thing changes with another...... A CONSTANT RATE OF CHANGE is where this change is Equal to each other and this Constant Rate of Change is Linear (Line)if you were to graph it.  A constant rate of change is like a unit rate (1 on the denominator). As math often says itself, we are looking at changes from one unit to another.  If these changes are constant -their graph is a line.   I find this so wordy, do you?  Actually, the examples will help you understand another way things are proportional.  Hint Hint: Essential Question....
The difference between Constant Rate of Change and Graphing a PROPORTIONAL Graph is that they are both Linear, but Constant   Rate of Change does not have to go through the Origin.

Chapter 1.5 Graphing Proportional Relationships

Good Afternoon to all of you AGAIN,

Well, not really sure what happened to this blog post, but it disappeared! Poof and it was gone!

So I do have the videos, but not necessarily the same intro to the lesson, so hang on, read on, and here we go again!

You can see that 2 things( x,y) are proportional by looking at the graph.  If the graph is a STRAIGHT LINE and goes through the ORIGIN, they are proportional!! ( hint: Essential Question ).

So watch these videos and be on the lookout when viewing graphs, are they proportional or not!!

Good Evening to you all,

Today we continue working on Proportions but with an added step of SOLVING them!! Always keep in mind that Proportions mean EQUIVALENT or Equal or Same!!  We are still setting up these proportions as Ratios( Fractions).  One way to solve Proportional Ratios is to use CROSS PRODUCTS.  Check out the videos for this neat step!

ESSENTIAL QUESTION -  Each lesson in this chapter is about the EQ so there are many ways to show that 2 objects are proportional.  Make sure you review these lessons - START Writing the Rough Draft.  You should be completely done BEFORE the Chapter Test
