Friday Sept 1

Problem of the Day & deltamath 

Tuesday Sept 5

Solving Linear Inequalities- greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, less than or equal to, same rules as linear equations, but flip the inequality direction when divide or multiply by a negative

Wednesday Sept 6, Thurs Sept 7 Friday Sept 8

Compound Inequalities- Intersections (AND) versus Unions (OR)

Monday Sept 11

Relations & Function Notation- relation: relationship between x and y, function: for every input there is only one output (AKA x never repeats or passes vertical line test), f(x) notation f(x)=y

Tuesday Sept 12 & Wed Sept 13

Fri Sept 22- No School

Tues Sept 26 & Wed Sept 27

Practice/ Review

Thur Sept 28

UNIT 1 EXAM

Optional Topics

Interval Notation and Set- Builder Notation- bc op: bracket- closed dot, parenthesis- open dot & infinity 

Graph Absolute Value Equations & Inequalities- Always look like a V, find vertex and points, make a table, inequalities- dotted or solid & shading

Piecewise Functions (Optional)- Also known as step- function because looks like steps, first dot open and second dot closed

Application of Systems- word problems

Solving System of Inequalities

Domain & Range- think of the alphabet, D is before R and x is before y, so Domain is all possible x-values and Range is all possible y- values

X-intercepts & Y-intercepts- x-intercept: point hits x-axis y=0, y-intercept: point hits y-axis x=0. Write as a coordinate point

Parallel & Perpendicular Lines
