I think there will be 8 problems on the test, 1 with multiple parts

solving radical equations - 3
graphing a radical equation - 1
simplifying radical expressions with rational exponents - 3
transforming a radical parent function - 1
using a radical equation in a word problem - 1
surprise - 1

Welcome back; hopefully we'll have a safe end of the year.


alg II hp -   Started with Holt p. 633 #54; reviewed hw on p. 241, did whiteboards on 5.3 and 5.4 to get ready for quiz on Monday, did #32 on p. 266 on rational exponents.

Monday 12/4

alg II hp -  I was at a meeting but the sub work was p. 266 #15-19 odds, 24, 26, 45.  Quiz this thursday on solving radical equations and graphing radical functions.



alg II -  Notes on solving equations, whiteboards on transforming radical function graphs; p. 266 #5, 6, 8, 11, 13.



alg I -   Walkabout with 6 problems on SOE;  work on word problems where you need to write a SOE.  Hw was handout 8.7  #1-5

Friday 12/1

alg II hp - Took notes on how to solve a radical equation (5.4), did whiteboard practice on how to graph a radical function using transformations (5.3).  practice was p. 266 #3, 5, 8, 11.


alg II -   Test day!
