Integrated 3 ---Week of September 12-16

Monday, 9/12
Today we formed groups based on student choice - practicing for the assessment tomorrow.  You can find these practice pages below.

Practice Solving for a Variable (re-writing equations)

Advanced Practice Solving Triangles
Advanced Practice Solving for a Variable

A document containing keys to all four workshets can be found here.
NOTE:  because of all the equations that are embedded - it looks a little strange at first sight.  Give it a minute to "warm-up" and it'll look just fine!

HW#15 - continued... page 49 "On Your Own" - on part b, make sure you write your answers both as an inequality (ex: m>5), and in words (ex: Plan A is cheapest when you talk more than 5 mintues)

HAve a great weekend!
