Class Notes 11/12

Today in class we briefly went over section 2.2 of the book. I didn't want to spend to much time going over this. The section dealt with translating math into words. The main idea of this section is that we use the same words when talking about algebraic expressions as we do with numerical expressions. After we went over that section we started looking at negative numbers. What do they look like on a number line, how do we treat negative number when we add them or subtract them.

For Homework due 11/16: The handout on adding/subtracting with negative numbers.

Class Notes11/9

Today in class we worked more on section 2.1. We took some notes and worked more on evaluating algebraic expressions using tables.

For homework Due 11/12: pg 53 #25,26,27 and the worksheet I gave in class.

The worksheet deal with negative numbers and I know we haven't really talked about them yet. So do your best. The main thing I am looking for in that you know how to plug a given number into an algebraic expression and where it goes.
