GPS Algebra Support Classes
We finished writing the examples of Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, and Dividing Polynomials in our Spiral Notebook. We ended yesterday with # 15 and finished # 16 and 17 today.
We then went reviewed The Binomial Theorem and Pascal's Triangle by writing the following in our Spiral Notebook:
18) Pascal's Triangle
19) The Binomial Theorem
20) An example where you had to expand a binomial using Pascal's Triangle and The Binomial Theorem
This concludes what we will be putting in our Spiral Notebook until next week. The notebooks will be collected and graded early next week for the next Spiral Notebook Check. There are 20 items total and they will each count 5 points.
I gave you one more example to work on in class that used Pascal's Triangle and The Binomial Theorem. We went over the solution before class ended.
You were given the remaining time in class to work on the GPS Algebra homework assignment (page 75 # 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, and 20) that is due today.

Notes were given on Lesson 2.5, which is Factoring by using the Greatest Common Factor (GCF). This lesson begins on page 77 in your textbook.
I then put up the worked-out solutions to yesterday's homework assignment (page 75 # 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, and 20). I answered any questions you had.
The homework assignment for today is: Page 79 #13-21 all, and Page 80 # 10-18 all.
