Review: Mean, Median, Mode, Range, Outlier

Mean:
-add up all the values , divide by how many numbers there are
 Median:
-the middle number in a data set
Mode:
-the value that shows up the most
Range:
-the positive difference between largest and smallest values
Outlier:
-values that are too big or smallest
values

Review: Quadrants

(+,+) Quadrant 1
(-,+) Quadrant II
(-,-) Quadrant III
(+,-) Quadrant IV


Describe the horizontal and vertical movements between two points.

Review: Transformations

Translation- slide along a straight line
Rotation- turn about a fixed point
Reflection- mirror image

Know how to do and describe each of them.


Review: Divisibility Rules

Divisible means when a number can be divided by another number,
With no remainders or decimals.
Divisibility rules
1- All numbers
2- Even numbers 
3- Sum of the digits is divisible by 3
4- Divisible by 2 Twice
5- Ends in a 0 or 5
6- Divisible by 2 And 3
8- Divisible bye 2 thrice (three times)
9- Sum of he digits is 9
10- ends in 0

Formulas Of Circles

C=πd this is used to measure the circumference of a circle 
C=2πr twice the radius is the diameter 
A=πr2 this is used to measure the area
d=2r this is used to measure the diameter

February 9 2012: BEDMAS question

8 squared divided by 16- 2 squared
64 divided by 16 - 2 squared
64 divided by 16 - 4
4-4
= 0

Mr. Wilson's math answer question


My answer:
You don't really know what each questions are worth. So maybe 2 questions are worth 2 and the 3rd questions is only worth one. Altogether its 5. 5-14= 9. 11 divided by 14= 0.7857 x 100= 78.6 (round to the nearest tenth) 78.6-9= 69.6. 69.6 is a C







An expression word problem

A group of students are talking, 2 friends leave the group. Write an expression for the numbers of students in the group after the 2 leave.


Answer: s- 2 =
You don't know how much are in the group so we use variables which represent an unknown number.
s= students
2= how much students left the group

What is an Expression

EXPRESSION- any single number or variable or combination of operations
(+,-,x,divided by) involving numbers and variables.
EG. 5, n, 8+, x+1, 2y-7

What is a Variable

VARIABLE- a letter that represents an unknown number
eg. x, a, n

Divisibility Rules

Rules for 1: all whole numbers are divisible by one
Rules for 2: all whole even numbers are divisible by 2, ends in 0,2,4,6,8
rules for 3: the sum of the digit of the whole number is divisible by 3
rules for 4: all whole numbers that are divisible by 2 twice
rules for 5: all whole numbers that ends in 0 or 5
Rules for 6: if the whole number is divisible by 2 and 3 is divisible by 6
rules for 8: all whole numbers that are divisible by 2 3x
rules for 9: the sum of the digit of the whole number is divisible by 9
rules for 10: all whole numbers that ends in 0

Adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators


eg.
1/4 + 1/6 or 3/5 -1/2

You must find a common denominator to make the bottom number the same.
Common Denominator- a common multiple of the denominators of the set of fractions.
eg.
a common denominator for 1/4 and 1/6 is 12 because a common multiple of 4 and 6 is 12.
Multiple- the product of any given number and natural number like 1,2,3.....
Eg.
some multiples of 3: 3,6,9,12,15,18












You must find the 1st 5 multiples of each number
To make a common denominator you must find L.C.M- lowest common multiple

4 and 6

6- 6,12,18,24,304- 4,8,12,16,20

the L.C.M is 12
Once you find a common denominator, you make an equivalent fraction

eg.












3/12 + 2/12= 5/12

What is a Numerator and a Denominator

What is a Numerator
A numerator is the top number of a fraction and tells us how many parts of the whole we have or are dealing with.
Eg.











What is a Denominator
A denominator is the bottom number of a fraction and tells us how many parts of the whole is divided into.
Eg.

Divisibility Rules For One

All whole numbers are divisible by one.
Eg. 3 divided by 1 = 3
111 divided by 1 = 111

Order of Operations




How to the BEDMAS question.
1. Check if there is are any BRACKETS. There are no brackets.
2. Check if there are any EXPONENTS. There are no exponents.
3. Check if there are any MULTIPLICATION/ DIVISION. Yes, there are multiplication and division. Multiplication goes first because the question goes from left to right and is the order that we go in.
4. Check if there are any ADDITION/ SUBTRACTION. Yes, there are addition and subtraction. Add the numbers that you made with the multiplication and division numbers and should get the answer 18.
