The best way to reach me is

EET versus Math class I took this class before but they wont let me transfer it.

Home work format: Section number2.4 Problem number 14 Answer18.2 Show all your work.

CALCULATORS Your calculator will become outdated not so the math you learn. Build a tool with your work that will be good forever.

Save your homework and build a study guide. Get to know your classmates, work with them. Get a tutor. Answers to odd-numbered questions are in the book. NOT the solutions.

Students who cannot meet with tutors during our normal operating hours are invited to explore our E-Tutoring service. explore our E-Tutoring service

Math is like playing a musical instrument, it is a perishable skill.

Concept of “solving” for value. 18/3 = 6

Section 1.2 page 7 Order-Of-Operations

HINT Some people use the acronym “Please excuse my Dear aunt sally” to help remember the order of operations.

Section 1.3 page 9 Scientific notation is a method of writing very large and very small numbers while avoiding writing many zeros.

Section 1.3 page 12

Volt One coulomb of charge is the total charge associated with x electrons

Section 1.3 m integers are the counting numbers; that is, 1, 2, 3,

Section 1.3

CHANGING A NUMBER FROM DECIMAL FORM TO SCIENTIFIC NOTATION The 2 step method. m integers are the counting numbers; that is, 1, 2, 3,

CHANGING A NUMBER FROM DECIMAL FORM TO SCIENTIFIC NOTATION divided by 3 =

CHANGING A NUMBER FROM DECIMAL FORM TO SCIENTIFIC NOTATION divided by 3 = There are 4 zeros in m integers are the counting numbers; that is, 1, 2, 3,

CHANGING A NUMBER FROM SCIENTIFIC NOTATION TO DECIMAL FORM

FIXED-POINT, FLOATING-POINT, SCIENTIFIC, AND ENGINEERING NOTATION Engineering notation specifies that all powers of ten must be 0 or multiples of 3, and the mantissa must be greater than or equal to 1 but less than mantissa In Mathematics the decimal part of a common logarithm.

ENGINEERING NOTATION All powers of ten must be 0 or multiples of 3

Engineer Notation is in 10 to the powers of 3. So every 3 digits use a space 4, 123,
