Here is this week's extra credit:

Week 27 Extra Credit

Mike Trout is gearing up for the 2015 baseball season. He's looking to carefully balance his nutrition regimen to be in peak physical condition for Opening Day. He finds that there are 5 grams of sugar in each of his sports drinks and 3 grams of sugar in each of his protein bars. For his plan, the total grams of sugar from snacks should be 25 and his intake of both of these snacks should not exceed 7

1. Write an equation in standard form to represent the total      grams    of fat he should consume each day

. 

2. Write an equation in standard form to represent the total  number of snacks he can consume each day.

3. Define your variables for this problem situation.

4. Which algebraic method did you use to solve this system?      Why?

5. How many sports drinks can Mike Trout consume each day?

 

6. How many protein bars can Mike Trout consume each day? 

Thursday 4/02

Today we continued our study in preparation for Friday's Test.

Great job everyone!

Homework: Chapter 12.2 Problem 2 Page 667 All.

Wednesday 4/01

Today we prepped for Thursday's test by using the best method to solve systems of linear equations together in teams.

Be sure to study tonight to arrive fully prepared tomorrow. Your Chapter 11 & 12 class work, homework, and chapter summaries will be the best tools.

Remember, you can also use your class work and homework on Thursday's test. So if you've been working really hard in class and at home, that should help a lot. Come prepared.

Tuesday 3/31

We investigated solving systems of equations using the best method available today withLesson 12.3.

We'll spend one more day wrapping up our look at linear systems, and then take a test on Thursday on Chapters
