SAT-Math 2020 Spring Week 1:  Linear Models

Welcome new friend Abby!

This is the first class in the Spring Semester. By the end of June, we will go through all the topics including linear/quadratics, number theory foundation (synthetic division, complex numbers, absolute value), geometry (angles, triangles, circles, and volumes), trigonometry, probability, statistics, and reading data.

Lesson Review:

1. Comments & corrections on 2019 Fall Final Term

• When the coefficients of each term are equal, we can say the left and right parts of an equation are equal. (Section 3, Q10, and Section 4, Q16)
• The root square should be non-negative (Section 3, Q15)
• Read every keyword carefully. Know which data you should look into. (Section 4, Q9)
• Pythagorean Triples (3,4,5), (5,12,13), (7,24,25) and so on.
• …

2. Chapter 14: Interpreting Linear Models

• Understanding the meanings/applications of “slope” (rate of change) and ”y-intercept” (the value of the function when x=0).

Homework:

1. Corrections of Final Exam Paper

2. Chapter 14 Exercise (Page 113-116)

No school next Sunday. Happy Lunar New Year! See you on 2/2！

今天的考试Section 4在复印试题的时候发生“意外”，打印机误将2张纸一起卷进去，导致中间2面的试题没有复印，这样全班人20-25题都没有做，直到李老师批改试卷的时候才发觉！所以下周日上课会抽出5分钟时间给大家补做这5题！抱歉发生这样的乌龙~~

试卷都已经批好，错题也已经录入我的小数据库。这次期末比期中考试难了一些，我们会在下周挑选典型错题重点讲解。

下周会开始新的一章，Chapter 14: Interpreting Linear Models. 请大家记得带上课本与试卷。

另外，我们把Teaching Schedule做了微调，原定3.15的期中考试推迟到3月29日。这样保证前后半个学期的课时数相对均衡。具体详见：

我们下周见！（还未注册春季学期课程的家长请勿错过1月19日的报名缴费日期^_^）
