Linear System Group Assignment

Purpose

Our group needed to create a graph and an equation.

Curricular Response

Question: Justify your mathematical decisions. Give reasons for your choice of equations and for your choice of algebraic method.

I decided to choose this equation because my group and I chose something random and if we got it wrong we would choose a different one. Thankfully we chose a good one that when we plugged in our answer into an equation; it was right and we were able to see the equation as the interception between the 2 lines. As a group we worked hard to get the right answer and everyone contributed to get both the equation answer to graph the equation. We as a group communicated with each other and focussed on our work more than being off topic. The Equation that we all chose was easy to understand and it was kind of fun to do. I came up with some ideas on what form we should use so we chose to do subsitution because it was easiest.

Core Competency Self-Assessment

I work with others to achieve my goal by communicating well with my group members, it is important to work with others than working alone.

I find it easy to be part of a group because I can contribute with my skills of math and quick thinking, I am able to work well when I need to.

I demonstrate respectflul, inclusive behavior when I work in a group because in order to work well you need to show respect and kindness to gain the trust of others.

I can show a sense of accomlishment and joy. I take pride in my work and myself because I work hard to get a good mark, I can work well with others and be confident my group can get for our hard work.

I can identify how my actions affect others and I can make and positive change because I understand what the people around me and I can change my actions to keep my group or friends happy.

Linear & Non-Linear Equations Assignment

Linear Equations

I can tell this is a linear equation because the graph is just a straight line, I can also tell from the equation that there are no exponents over one.

y-3=4(x+1)

I can tell this is a linear equation from the graph because the line is straight, I can tell from the equation that this is a linear equation because there are only exponents of one.

Non-Linear Equations

y=3/x

i can tell this is not linear equation because on the graph the line isn’t straight, I can tell the equation is a linear because there are only exponents of one.

I can tell this is a non-linear equation from the graph because there is no straight line, there are exponents of two on the x and y so I can tell that is a non-linear equation.

Self Assessment

I explored mathematical ideas using technology when I made this edublog and used desmos

I anyalyzed data and used criteria to draw conclusions when I look at the class notebook to find out what to do

I justified my conclusions with evidence when I explain how the graph or equation is linear

Personal Awarness and Responsibility: How I manage school related stress.

  • When I am sad, angry or frustrated about school, listenning to music helps me more productive or calm.
  • I can prevent some school-related stress by listenning to music and being prepared for a test.
