Tuesday Warm Up Open your booklets to page 29. Complete numbers 1 - 6. Write the answers on your Warm Up Sheet.

Quiz Group Discussions In your groups Go through each problem as a group. Figure out what the right answer should be and how to get them. Everyone should completely rework each problem on a seperate sheet of paper and turn it into the bin.

Transformations Chart Vertex Form Transformations: y=a(x-h)2+k k h Sign of a Value of a +k moves (x-h) moves If a is + If a is 0<a<1 - k moves (x+h) moves If a is - If a is a>1

Examples: List the transformations that occur. y=(x-2)2+3

Task 2.5 Fully describe the parabola that Jenny has been assigned to graph. Transformations: Opens: Axis of Symmetry: Vertex: Up 3, right 4 Up X = 3 (3, 4)

Wednesday Warm Up Open your booklets to page 37. Complete #1 - 4. Write the final answer(s) to number 4 on your orange Get Ready Sheet.

GCF stands for greatest common factor. Find the GCF of the following: Factoring Method 1: GCF GCF stands for greatest common factor. Find the GCF of the following:

Example 1: Factor the following Factoring Method 1: GCF When we factor, we want two linear terms (no x squared). Sometimes, all we need to do it take out a GCF. Example 1: Factor the following

Example 2: Factor the following Factoring Method 1: GCF Example 2: Factor the following Example 3: Factor the following

You try! Factor the following Factoring Method 1: GCF You try! Factor the following You try! Factor the following

Factoring Method 2: Factor by grouping Works when there are 4 terms in the polynomial in descending degree order. Split the polynomial into two sets of two terms Factor each set separately (factor out GCF) Factor out common polynomial

Factoring Method 2: Factor by grouping Example 1: Factor the following Example 2: Factor the following

Factoring Method 2: Factor by grouping You try! Factor the following You try! Factor the following

Connect Four Activity You will be given 10 minutes to complete the worksheet in your groups. After the 10 minutes we will have groups give answers. For each correct answer, the group gets to put a sticky note in the slot. Your goal is to connect four in a row and prevent others from doing so.
