We will apply the methods for finding probabilities involving or and and. We will do a two-way table example and answer a variety of questions using the information in the table. Multiple examples will be done.

We will do examples of using a two-way table to find probabilities. We will use expected value to help in decision making. Multiple examples will be given.

8-3 Quadratic Functions in Standard Form – We learned to graph functions in standard form and show intercepts, maxima, and minima. Then we learned to determine how the values of A, B, and C affect the graph of f(x) = ax2 + bx + c. Next, we compared the properties of quadratic functions presented in different forms (algebraically, in a table, graphically).
Assignment: Complete the assigned problems for homework.

8-2 Quadratic Functions in Vertex Form – We learned to identify key features of the graph of quadratic functions written in vertex form. Then we practiced graphing quadratic functions in vertex form. We practiced solving word problems involving quadratic functions. Then we practiced finding features of the graph of quadratic functions written in vertex form and how they relate to real-world problems.

8-1 Key Features of a Quadratic Function – We graphed two functions and compared the average rates of change. Then we determined whether functions were increasing or decreasing over intervals.

We will do problems involving combinations and permutations as they apply to finding probability. Many examples will be completed.

We will do probability problems involving combinations and permutations. we will also do probability problems involving conditional probability. Examples will be done for each type.

We will determine probabilities involving OR and Not. The probability of event A or B is the sum of the probabilities, minus any duplication. Those involving NOT (also called complementary probability) are found by finding the probability that the event does occur and subtracting it from 1. Cards, dice, spinners, and real situations will be used for examples.

We will do problems involving OR and Not in the probability statement. We will look at examples using dice, cards, spinners and other experiments to practice finding the probability.

8-1 Key Features of a Quadratic Function – We practiced plotting quadratic functions with f(x) = ax2 where a<0, a>0, a>1, and 0<a<1. Model, graph, and solve problems with quadratic equations (with real solutions) in two variables.
