Assignment and Information for the Week of 12/10/07

This week we begin Frogs, Fleas and Painted Cubes, which is a look at Quadratic Functions. Similar to the Linear and Exponential Functions we have encountered, we will examine the graphs, tables, and equations of this new concept. Using our knowledge of Area and Perimeter our first investigation will help us create the first series of data to examine. Remember to keep your binder organized. Think of it as your Math Brain, which if cluttered will not function well. Please submit all assignments timely to ensure the highest level of credit.
