SP#5: Unit J Concept 6: Solving Fraction Decomposition With Repeated Factors

This is my student problem number 5 and in this concept it will explain the partial fraction decomposition with distinct factors. In this concept you have to make sure that when you are distributing a factor that is shown twice, that you actually multiply it twice. You need to make sure to get rid of the information that you don't need by combining like terms. For example with my problem I got 0/(x-2) you don't have to put that as an answer because it has the 0 on top.

SP# 4: Unit J Concept 5- Partial Fraction Decomposition with distinct factors


This is my student problem number four, I will show you how to decompose partial fractions. In this concept you have to make sure that if you check the matrix in the calculator you don't get decimals because that means that you did something wrong. Make sure to combine all like terms. Also you have to make sure that you keep the equations separately and don't mix them.

For this concept there are many steps that could be very challenging to people because you have to do a lot of multiplying and combining. The most important thing that you remember is that you have to get your stair case of 1's and your triangle of 0's. If you try to find those key concepts you will find the matrices very easily. Make sure that at the end you find the order pairs for x,y,z.

Unit G Concepts 1-7

To watch the video press here
For the unit G concepts 1-7 the most trickiest parts would be making sure that the equation is a slant one or a horizontal one and if it is a slant one then you have to make sure that you don't forget about the holes. Also if it is a slant one then you have to use long division to find the equation. There should be no y-intercepts in the equations that are slants. Once you have the holes don't forget to put it into ordered pairs.

In this video you have to pay attention to that you make sure that your synthetic division is correct because one little mistake can mess up the problem. Same thing goes with the quadratic formula and plug in the numbers correctly. Also when you are writing the factors you need to make sure that you are not confusing them with the zeroes.

SP#2 Unit E Concept 7 - Graphing Polynomials with Multiplicity

For the Unit E Concept 7 SP#2 we began by creating the factors of the equation. We then continued by distributing the numbers to create our equation. once we had all of our variables we put them all together to create our equation. from there we had to figure out if it was an even positive or any of the other ones and we were assigned to do an even possistive so the end behaviors should be the same and going up.
The part that would be confusing would be the way if the line would go through, bounce or curve. From that you will be able to identify the way that the graph would flow.

SP#1: Unit E Concept 1 - Graphing Parabolas and Identifying Parts



For the Unit E Concept 1 we had to create a parabola. We first began by creating an equation that had an x^2 from there you would continue going down with the powers of the variables. Once you have the equation you will start by putting the equation equal to 0 and then moving the 2 over to the other side. once you have the 2 on the other side you can take out a 4 from the left side and what you do to the left you have to do to the right so you put a 4 on the other side to and you will be multiplying it by the number that you get from completing the square. to complete the square you take the middle number from the equation on the left side then you divide by 2 and then square root it. which that will give you 1.
Once you have the final answer you will pair it up into two sections the parent equation and solved equation.For the parent equation you will just move everything onto one side. To solve you need to completely solve for the equation. From there you will just plot the points that you are given and find if its a max or a min and find your vertex, and your x-intercepts. the hardest part for some people could be solving because there could be mistakes that could be done without noticing.
