Phythagoras Post
Surprisingly, Mr. Harbeck fell and bumped his head on the floor. Now, he can't remember anything so he asks us to find out what these artifacts are to help him remember.
Right Triangle:
This is the right triangle. The sides that make up the 90 degree angle are called legs. The legs are labelled A and B. The hypotenuse is the C, and is the longest side of the triangle. You can always find it across from the 90 degree angle. Theta and Beta show at the top corner and the bottom corner of a right triangle. The top one is the Theta and the bottom one is the Beta. Complementry angles arPhye formed by Theta and Beta because Theta and Beta equals 90 degrees.

Complementry angles arPhye formed by Theta and Beta because Theta and Beta equals 90 degrees. Square:
This is a square, which means that all sides are equal. There are four 90 degree angles in the shape which equals to 360 degrees. You can always find the area or perimeter of the square if you know the measurement of one side. If you know the measurement of one side, then you know the measurement of all sides because all sides of a square are equal. In this picture, one side is 5, so we know that all sides equal 5. 5x5 , which is LxW. The area is 25.
Phythagoras:
Phythagoras is the man who made the phythagorean theorem. Phythagoras was often called the Father of Math. He is a Vegan, someone who doesn't eat things that are alive. He loves Music just like how he loves Math. He believed that he could make a square out of four right triangle angles and that he could make a triangle out of three squares. Phythagoras was the person who discovered the circumfurance of the world.
Phythagorean Theorem:
a²+b²=c²
a²+b²=c²
This is the Pythagorean Theorem. Pythagoras came up with the theorem to find out the length of a side of a right angle triangle. The theorem means is that, if you know side a and side b of a right triangle, all you do is square them. After that, you will need to add them together which will leave you with side c squared. Find the square root of the answer and that will give you the length of side c, the hypotenuse.
Heres the problem that Mr. Harbeck told us to use use for our post:
Paying It Forward
For my act of kindness, I'm thinking of helping the people in need. Some things that I thought of doing is to shovel snow in people's yards, help the elderly, serve food to the homeless, and donate clothes to the Salvation Army. I would go to my neighbor's yard, go to an old folks home, and the Salvation Army. I would do this during my winter break.
Well what happened when I was doing Pay It Forward, I made pamphlets explaining what's pay it forward, who started it, and why should you pay it forward. It took so much time and effort. It was very, very cold when I went out handing out the pamphlets, but it felt good handing out the pamphlets that I made and thinking that I helped make a difference by spreading the message. I never saw how the person would've reacted. I wish I could have saw the smile on their face thinking that they would actually try to help. I never got the chance to ask if they are involved in pay it forward because I just left the pamphlet in their mailbox.
I think that one person can make a very big difference. If ONE PERSON really took this " Pay It Forward " and put it into action, it will really make an impact on our world.

Leah: Hey Bella! Can you help me with my math homework?
Bella: Sure thing, which question do you need help on?
Leah: Number 5. The question was n+3-5n+12
Bella: Oh, that was easy!
Leah: No not really, I tried it but I'm not sure if I got it right or not
Bella: Well what was your answer?
Leah: My answer turned out to be -6n+15
Bella: What?! My answer was -4n+15
Leah: Oh, I must have made a mistake. I will change it.
Bella: NO, you must know how to fix your mistakes! You see, you circle the two like terms which was n and -5n. After you must put it in order, -5n+n+3+12.
Leah: Yeah, I did put it in order ...
Bella: I know, but I'm not done yet. When you tried to solve -5n+n, you thought that it was -6n. You see, the term n by itself is one term. So, you must solve it like an integer question.
Leah: Ohh, I see now. So my mistake was that I added the n to-5 which made my answer -6n.
Bella: That's correct! You see, combining like terms!
Leah: Thanks Bella.
Bella: No problem! You see, if I never explained this to you then you would of not learn anything
Leah: Yes I know. Thanks again Bella, But I have another homework question I couldn't figure out.
Bella: No problem what question was it?
Leah: Number10. The question was 2 + 4(3n+8). And my answer was 12n + 10.
Bella: Oh! That question.
Leah: Yes that question. And this time, please explain to me what I did wrong.
Bella: Well the answer that I got was 12n+34. The thing that you did wrong was that you didnt multiply the 4 and 8 together. When ever theres brackets, you must multiply both numbers to the same number outside of the bracket.
Leah: Ohh, I get it now.
Bella: No problem! All you have to do is the distibutive property that we did in class the other day.
Leah: That was the thing that I was missing! Thanks alot Bella!
Bella: No problem! Just come to me next time if you have trouble on the other homework that we will have in future.
Leah: I will keep that in mind.

Chapter 3: One Step Equation Solving
FIRST RULE before doing ANY algebraic equations. You MUST:
Isolate
Cancel Opposite
Balance
Verify
ADDITIVE:
So this is an additive equation. To solve this equation you must Isolate the variable by adding the constants opposite. So in this algebraic equation, the constant is 3 so you have to add its opposite which is -3. What you do to the left side, you must do to the right side to balance it out. So its 5-3. Now on the left side, +3 and -3 make zero so you left with N the variable. Then you must solve the right side, 5-3 = 2. The answer would be N = 2. After you know what the variable equals, then you must verify which is just replacing the N with what it equals.
Now using algebra tiles is pretty much the same thing but you must draw. The variable is the long yellow block ( sorry, I couldn't find any green or red markers/pencil crayons in my house) and the coloured square blocks are the constants. I started off with one yellow block = n, 3 blue squares = 3, then the answer which is 5 blue squares. Then you must Isolate the variable like always by adding the constants opposite. Then you Balance it out. So the answer is N=2. Then you Verify.
SUBTRACTIVE:
When doing subtractive equations, you do the same steps when doing additive equations but just opposite. Also goes with the algebra tiles. So the equation is n-4=7. First you Isolate the variable so its n-4+4=7. Now Balance it out , 7+4. Now -4 and +4 equals zero and 7+4 = 11. So, n = 11. Now verify. First re-write the equation, n-4=7. Then what does n equal? 11. So 11-4=7. Then its 7=7. Whenever you verify, you must get the same answer as what the equation equals to.
MULTIPLICATIVE:
The way I like to solve this multiplicative equations is using algebra tiles. First I drew 2 variables and 6 constants. Then you must divide it evenly like a deck of cards. After you divide it evenly like a deck of cards, then you must circle each group. So n = 3. Then you verify. 2n=6. 2(3)=6. 6=6.
DIVISIVE:
I solved this equation by drawing the question. I drew one variable, and wrote down the fraction line and numbers. After I drew everything, I multiplied the answer which is 3 by 4. This is how you isolate when you are working on a divisive equation. So I multipied the 3 and 4 together and got 12. N = 12. Now you verify by re-writing the equation and replacing the n by what it equals to.

Michelle's Integer Story
It all started with white clouds. Then, some kind of Angel appeared, her name was Annie. She started to talk to
She handed the piece of paper to Annie. “Very well done
and handed it to Annie. Annie was impressed and said “Very well done! Now, here’s your last integer question, you MUST solve it using WORDS”. Annie handed 
then handed it to 
“Great job! Now, here’s the key to the big silver building. Once you get there, there will be a bed there, all you have to do is lay down on the bed and dream that you are getting the sleep that you need every night”.
TO BE CONTINUED!
She woke up and there was this OTHER angel standing there. He didn't talk what so ever in the beginning. He just held up signs with integer equations. Only this time it was subtracting. Crystal knew right away that she had to solve the equation. He gave her a piece of paper. The equation was (+6) - (+8). She started to solve the equation by a method that her junior high math teacher Mr.Harbeck taught her. Crystal came up with:
The angel skimmed through the paper and gave her a thumbs up. She then handed Crystal another sheet of paper of an integer equation. Only this time it was much longer and confusing. Crystal again used a method that Mr. Harbeck taught her. The equation was -7 - (-5) - (5) +8. She saw the zero pair and started to write down her answer. This is what she came up with this time:
The angel was every impressed. She started to talk very fast that Crystal didn't even get to ask what her name was. The angel said " Good job Crystal. Annie just wanted to test you if you really knew your integers because she said that it is going to help you in the long run. Well, once i pinch you, you are going to officially wake up and you will have your normal day and you will get as much sleep as you want. In the count of three. 1, 2, 3" POOF! Crystal had a huge headache and didnt remember ANYTHING that she had dreamed. Her headache was bugging her so much that she couldn't go to work. Everything was JUST a dream that did not come true (sadly). But in the future, she quit her job because she wanted more time with her family and more sleep. She found a new job and is settle in with that one. Crystal still continues to do integer equations in her spare time. Until this day, she hadnt rememberd anything from that dream.
THE END!

HELLO 8-41 ! :) Today we started a new unit on ...
INTEGERS!
Is this an integer question? 6-5 = 1
YES!
Did you know this is the very same question? (+6) + (-5) = 1
Doing the scribe post was actually kind of fun. Sorry there's only alittle bit of stuff on here. NOW heres what you girls have been waiting for, the next scribe I choose to be is ................................ TRACY !!!!! bwuahahaa :D . Good luck :) . Oh yeah, PLEASE COMMENT!

Michelle's Measures of Central Tendency
Mean - Arrange the data in ascending numerical order.
- The mean is the sum of all data
Median
- Arrange the data in acending numerical order.
- The median is the number that is in the middle
- If there is two numbers in the middle number between those two numbers.
Mode - Arrange the data in ascending numerical order.
- The mode is the number that shows up often.
Range - Arrange the data in ascending order.
- The range is when you subtract the smallest piece of data from the largest piece of data.
Heres the video that explains mean, median, mode, and range.
