Today we spent most of the class period reviewing your homework from this weekend. Be sure that you have corrected the equation from worksheet 11-4!!!! If you were not in class you need to get the equation from someone.

You may want to review your equations for homework!!!

The midterm is also this week and will consist of information from ALL units covered so far. That means it will consist of: Fair Division, Truth Tables, Propositions, Sets, Sums and Sequences!!! Review your tests and your notes to prepare.

Have a great week!

Geometric Sequences and Series

Today we looked at Geometric Sequences and Series. Be sure that you include these equations on your chart because it will be very helpful to have all of these equations in one location! Be sure that you have BOTH worksheets completed for Monday. You will also need your SAT folder next week to turn in Monday or Tuesday.

Have a great weekend!

What do you think is the best way to prepare for the midterm?

Fibonacci Numbers

Leonardo Fibonacci was a cool dude. Today we discussed one of his "discoveries" (although he was really just the first to publish this finding). Fibonacci used a hypothetical situation involving rabbits to create the "Fibonacci Sequence." (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, .....) Be sure that you know how this sequence works and how to find the first few terms of the sequence.

Fibonacci numbers can be found everywhere, especially throughout nature. We looked at several examples in class today. In groups you created the famous Fibonacci Spiral, which we will put up on the wall soon. Take a look at the website tonight (the link is on the right), and look specifically at some of the objects with spirals. You will need to know this information for upcoming tests/quizzes!

Coming up:
- Tonight your only homework is to check out the website on Fibonacci
- Keep in mind that we will have a midterm very soon! More about this on Friday.
