Notice: 

  • Thursday (03/09/23): We discussed about the Sample of Placement Test in Mathematics
  • Saturday (03/11/23): We discussed about Addition/ Subtraction and Solve for x

Key points:

  • + a + b = + c
  • – a – b = – c
  • – a + b
    • if a > b, the sign of c will follow the sign of a. Therefore, result is – c
    • if a < b, the sign of c will follow the sign of b. Therefore, result is + c
  • When you solve for x, keep in mind, x should be stay alone and be positive.

Please do all questions I gave you. Check answers by using calculator if needed. Besides, I would like you solve step-by-step on your paper.

I strongly recommend you timing yourself. Each question should be finish around 1 min! Hope you enjoy this HW during your weekend 😉

Feel free to ask me any questions via email, phone call, office hours via Zoom during my work at Sac State

Time Meeting for Week 0:

Notice:

  • Tuesday (03/14/23): No Meeting
  • Thursday (03/16/23): We discussed about Addition, Subtraction, and covered a lot of examples relates to Solve for linear equation (solve for x). 
  • Saturday (03/18/23): We discussed more deeper about solving linear equations but more harder with more difficult problems.

Please keep in mind, do Homework and review notes carefully. I will give you an 1-hour quiz to test what we have learnt from week 0 and week 0 plus. 

<Homework is provided>

Contents of Test:

  1. Addition/ Subtraction with multiple negative numbers.
  2. Simplify fraction and expression
  3. Solve for x, y, z, , etc.

Reviewing all concepts that we have discussed is your best friend.

Next week, we will meeting on Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday, and Saturday. Please click on Week 1 and schedule.

Time Meeting:

Notices: This week will have 2 meetings and next week (week 2 – from 03/27 to 04/01) we will have 4 meetings

  • Wednesday (03/22): We discussed about about THREE different forms of Linear equation. This is really important concept if Amy would like to learn Math and become a Math Teacher in the future.
    Three forms linear equation: 
    – Standard Form: Ax + By = C
    – Slope-int Form: y = mx + b where m is slope and y-int = (0,b)
    – Point-int Form: y – yo = m(x- x0)

    Besides, we discussed about how to have a slope if a line passes through two different points. m = (yA – yB) / (xA – xB)
     
  • Saturday (03/25): First hour we have the quiz. The quiz covers:
    – Addition/ Subtraction
    – Multiplication/ Division
    – Solve for x
    – Linear equation: find slope, describe the linear

    => The result is not well. Therefore, there is another the quiz on Tuesday (03/28/23). Please make sure to review all lectures and examples.

    Moreover, we discussed about ALL MATH LEVELs in Delta College, the path to get A.A/A.S degree, and decide which classes we should have in FALL 2023, Spring 2024, Summer 2024, and lastly Fall 2024. We also plan to graduate in Mathematics in Fall 2024.

 

Time meeting: >

Note: This week we will have 3 meetings.

  • Tuesday (03/28/23): Require. Besides, we had a plan to graduate from College and transfer to CSU in FALL 2024. 
    Enroll in MATH37 in SUMMER 2023 and MATH39 in FALL 2023
  • Saturday (04/01/23): Linear Equation (cont.) : Two lines are parallel and graph.
  • Sunday (04/02/23): Linear Equation (cont.): Two lines are perpendicular each other. We worked on many examples and graph.
    We discussed about some websites that support to learn math, such as DESMOS (for graphing), or Wolfram Alpha (for checking solution).

 

Summary:

  1. If line 1 is parallel to line 2, then m1 = m2
  2. If line 1 is perpendicular to line 2, then m1 = -1/(m2)
  3. When we graph, start from y-int first.

 

  • Note: To transfer from any College to any public University, student has to finish CSU GE Transferring (classes). Visit assist.org to know more information.

Click here to schedule:

  • Tuesday (04/4/23): Today We reviewed Section: Linear Equation, including working on more examples of parallel and perpendicular & graphing.
    Besides, new content is introduced which is Find the point intersection of 2 lines. We worked on the First method that is Substitution and HOMEWORK is provided.

Notice: Thursday is OPEN FALL Registration for Delta College

  • Thursday: We have pre-quiz. All contents will be covered, including Linear equation, slope, graphing, and System of Linear equation.
  • Saturday: Do the quiz and practice more about System Linear Equation. Provided the extra content: Horizontal Linear equation and Vertical Linear equation.

NOTE: 
– With Horizontal line, every point has same height (y) but different x. Therefore, it is y = number

– With Vertical line, every point has same x but different y. Therefore, it is x = number

Tuesday: We discussed about Addition Method for System of Linear Equation.

Thursday: Practiced more on Addition Method. Besides, new Content is demonstrated: Exponent. We went through 7 properties of Exponent.

Saturday: Practiced more on Exponent and discussed about Transferring.

Please Follow this to transfer to UOP:

  1. For California residents, it is recommended that either the CSU Breadth or UC (IGETC) General Education programs are followed in order for your General Education courses to count for Pacific’s General Education requirements, excluding PACS 003: Pacific Seminar 3. Therefore, click here to see the list of classes. So far, some class we will take: Math 37, Math 38A, Math 38B, Asian Studies 36, Physic 1A, Bio 10, Music 4, Psychology 30, and MATH1, MATH2, MATH3, MATH5 (REQUIRE)
