Today we talked about logarithm functions. It was totally new for me so I had to do some internet searching. I found a great site that explains every lesson with a teacher on video it helped a lot.

The Flu.........

On Wednesday and Thursday I was sick but looking at the blog I was able to determine we did Logarithmic Functions and Logarithmic Laws. I don't quite understand the Logarithmic Laws yet but I get Logarithms are just exponents........I'll have to see the notes on Monday.

Early Dismissal

On Tuesday it was early dismissal and Mr. Max gave us a work period. I worked on accelerated math. I need to work on exercises as well. I am spending to much time on accelerated math and not enough time on exercises. Basketball is starting so I need to get my head on straight! Also I think I did not do to well on the last test.........I did the practice test but I finished it the block right before the test. It was not a good idea because I forgot how to do the last part of the test. I wish I had studied harder because the test was a gimme, but I guess I learned a lesson and I better make sure it doesn't happen again.

Exponential functions

Today we talked about exponential functions. I found out that it is almost like the transformation unit we studied last. All the rules are the same, so I think I get it so far. I need to work on identities still, I still dont fully understand them. Ex) double angle Identities, and some sum and difference Identities

Yesterday we had a test. I think I did pretty good on it. I did the practice test and that really helped.

Transformational geometry

Today we learned about reflecting functions over the x and y axis. I get it the only thing I didn't get was how to find the odd and even functions.

Today we learned about transformations. Also we learned about horozontal and verticle compress and stretch. Exercise 8 1 to 10.
