 | Partial-Fraction Decomposition:General Techniques (page 1 of 3) Sections:General techniques,How to handle repeated and irreducible factors,Examples Previously,you have added and simplified rational expressions,such as: Partial-fraction decomposition is the process of starting with the simplified answer and taking it back apart,of “decomposing”the final expression into its initial . . . →Read More:Partial Fractions –General Techniques… Here’s the notes for partial fractions. I know I showed you all three cases (as outlined on your text),and your assignment will cover all three. HOWEVER –the test (and the final) will only cover the first case. I’ll try to find and post some links to some other good sites for additional explanation. . . . →Read More:USU 1050 8.6:Partial Fractions Here’s the video for the day –I’ll be here tomorrow and Friday if you need assistance! Here’s a video for the lesson today. I’ll be in on Tuesday after school until 4:00 if you need help with the material. All of you have a great Thanksgiving weekend! Logarithms are the “opposite”of exponentials,just as subtraction is the opposite of addition and division is the opposite of multiplication. Logs “undo”exponentials. Technically speaking,logs are the inverses of exponentials. In practical terms,I have found it useful to think of logs in terms of The Relationship: —The Relationship— y = . . . →Read More:1050 –a better explanation of logarithms Today we introduced logarithmic Functions. The biggest idea I need you to understand is that a logarithm is simply the opposite (or inverse function) of an exponential. The notes today went over that a bit,and I’ll post a more thorough explanation of that in a bit –Here are the notes for the day… . . . →Read More:1050 3.2:Logarithmic Functions A lot happened today,and the most important things to you are not the assignment! We (or I,depending on how you look at it) decided to combine the next two units and take the last midterm shortly before the Christmas break. This way,you will see test materials on systems from chapter eight – . . . →Read More:1050 3.1:Exponential Functions &Their Graphs Here’s the stuff from today –by the way,be sure to get online and look at the practice tests! And this is one of the major questions of our lives:how we keep boundaries,what permission we have to cross boundaries,and how we do so. A. B. Yehoshua This topic finishes up chapter one and looks at inverse functions. You need to know what inverse functions are,hot to verify that two functions are inverses,and how to find an inverse of a function after verifying that it is has one (one to one?). Here’s the notes for the day.
. . . →Read More:1050 1.5:Inverse Functions Here’s the notes for the day –section 2.1 is focusing on graphing quadratics. Previously we focused only on solving them. Pay attention to the story problems from the assignment –they will be particularly applicable. | |||
