Chapter 5

This week in advanced math we had to complete seven aleks modules and this weekend we have to do fourteen. I finished both so I’m super glad. Mrs. Robinson wasn’t here for a few days but we did manage to start chapter five. We were also supposed to get packets this week for our exam this Friday. However, considering the circumstances that happened this week Mrs. Robinson changed the exam to just chapter five. Chapter five is about exponents. We covered a few sections in five and it is pretty easy stuff. We learn how to solve exponents and we used 3 different formulas. Let’s do some example problems.
Solve the following problems:

Example 1:
7-2 = 1/49

Example 2:
(-7)-2 = -1/49

Example 3:
When given a chart you must pick one of the following formulas:
Read the problem, plug in the numbers, and then into your calculator and get an answer.
A(t) = Ao (1+r)2
A(t) = Ao b t/k
P(t) = Po ert
