alg II HP review guide

Hi students,

Here are the concepts on the test, most are in ch 3 but one or two are carry-overs from the last unit.

be able to:

solve a system of non linear equations
solve any quadratic (with real or imaginary solutions)
solve a word problem with initial velocity and height
solve a word problem that asks about maximum height
solve a word problem that asks how long something is in the air (if it travels parabolically)
list domain and range for a quadratic
write a quadratic equation from 2 real solutions or 1 imaginary one


Other thoughts:
Somewhere in there I will fit in some transformations of a quadratic.
I don't see graphing making it on this test but hopefully you know that well after the quiz.  I suppose you could solve the system by graphing.
If you want to practice for the test, check out the sub units in chapter 3, practice problems in those units (odd answers in the back of the book) and then bring your questions in for me to answer.
I will update this if anything changes.

Some problems in book:
p.  99 any
p. 101 #62
p. 127 any
p. 128 #62, 64
p. 136 any

Look in your class work and warm ups for writing equations from solutions.

Monday/ tuesday 9/21

You may have noticed that I was not in class on these days.  However, make sure you are still doing the work that the substitute assigns.  I will expect that you have done it and continue to move on with the course when I return.
Se you soon.
