today math class was good! we talked about property taxes but at the same time i think i learned more about my community than any math, which is a good thing because i didnt know that before! i mastered 6 objectives today too! i stil havent gotten my compound insurance done!

today math class was way too overwhelming!! there is too much going on in class! we need to have all the simple and compound interest work done but yet everyday we get more and more assignments when we dont even get a chance to finish up the ones that we already have. it sucks cuz i cant even do it at home as homework cuz i dont have a computer. hopefully tommorrow will be more successful

today math class was alright! i feel better knowing that im almost done my budgets but im still behind. i should be working on interest assignments by now! the other day when i was on edline my mark was 56 and then a week later it was 38 !!! i actually started crying! i didnt understand how it went that low! after calming down and loking at it i realized what i need to do to bring my mark up. its hard for me to keep a good mark in this class because i cant do homework because i dont have a computer and it bseems as though everytime i get a step ahead i get thrown back 2 more with more lessons and accelerated math.

today math class was interesting. For some odd reason i cant seem to do good on my mental math lately. Even when i think and do the answer over and over in my head its still wrong. its kinda frustrsting. but it made me feel happy that i could just about solve # 6 and 8 homework problems on my own!! i neeed more accelerated math objectives

today math class was a little overwhelming. I just remembered that we have a test coming up on thursday, i only got thirty some percent on mental math, and i only have 11/26 objectives.!! i am so far behind and i feel likeeveryone else is where there supposed to be!! it sucks. i dont think i will do very well on the test.

Today math class started out good and i was proud of myself for trying the whole time and not giving up and i thought i was going to be getting another objective but im still stuck on word poblems. They are so frustrating!!!! I cant do them on my own because every time i try i check them over and when they come through the machine there wrong!!! i dont understand why i cant get the answer by myself!! I wish i could just skip them and move on but i cant!! i tried my hardest to get all the objectives!! i dont even skip! how can i not know what im doing? i listen in class too!! these word problems are seriously going to make me fail!! this happend last year too! i got stuck on one uit then i couldnt keep going to get all of my objectives and i almost failed!! uhhhhh

I missed doing my blog because ive been busy doingmy accelerated math because we need ten objectives by the end of the day and im stuck on word problems. I dont understand them. I understanded what we were doing before but now i dont know. I hope this doesnt effect my mark.

Today in math class my knowledge was increased on how to solve by elimination. I know have 5 objectives and i need ten before friday. I also learned today that i need to stop mixing up my + and - 's. I did not complete #4 or #9. I hope the next math class is as productive as this one.

Today in math i learned an easier way to solve linear equations. The method goes like this: here is an example.
l1: 2x+6y=12 (x4)
l2: 3x+4y=14(x6)
-------------------------
l1: 8x+20y=48
l2:18x+20y=84
-------------------------
26x =132
x = 106
l1: 2x+6y=12 (x4)
l2: 3x+4y=14(x6)
-------------------------
l1: 8x+20y=48
l2:18x+20y=84
-------------------------
26x =132
x = 106

Today mr. maksumchuk showed us the steps in solving by substitution. These are the steps;
step 1: solve for y by using the equation with the coefficient of 1 next to the y.
step 2:find the value of x by using your findings for solving for y.
step 3:once you have found the value of x use it to find the value of y.
Step 4: check to see if your answers are correct by plugging in the x and y values to get the same answer as you did while solving the equations.
I think that is how the steps go. I understand how to do it but its hard to put it into words.

If i had to write the exam tommorrow there is no doubt that i would fail. Since grade 10 applied i feel like i didnt really learn the right amount of information that i was supposed to and now Im really noticing that its beginning to become a problem. i was never good at math but i didnt want to be lazy like other students that just want to take the easy way out and do consumer. Sometimes i wish i would have but i know that you more then likely would never get into a college with consumer. When im in math class i get frustrated becuase i cant seem to understand anything and it seems like everyone else does. I probably won t do very well on the homework tonight but i will try. So far ive learned........to graph equations without using a calculator.

In math class today we did our first mental math for the year. I couldn't seem to think straight when i was trying to think of the answers and i remembered doing the solution stuff on friday but couldnt remember the answers. Im nervous to start accelerated math tommorrow because when i was looking it over today i couldnt even figure out the first question. hopefully i can figure out the answer for it tommorrow.

My daily math reflection for today is in math I learned that y=x no matter what and I also learned the reasoning of why and how. I remember learning this in grade 10 applied. we also did goals on our blogger accounts.
Reflection goals
I only have 2 goals and they both have to do with my marks!
- Have all my cosmetology marks to be over 70.
- Pass applied math with a mark of 60 or higher.
