Exit Sip 5/6

The overall task was to graph the new surface area function and finding the minimum .
This was necessary to show the readers how changing the surface area function would change the minimum

Exit Slip . 3.May.2010

1. I think its necessary for us to combine two formulas to see how much material there is ...
2. To apply the same skill to my can I would have to change the formulas

Exit Slip 11.1 30.April.2010

The Overall task of this PBAT is to find the Volume of a Cylinder.

exit slip 23rd of April

I helped by telling my classmate what the surface area was .

i was able to accomplish everything.

i learned the surface area & volume .

i will use these skills out of school to help my siblings .

i don't have questions

Exit Slip Lesson 3

we compare and contrast function like making tables , graphs ..

exit slip : 12th

I can't explain it . but i understand how to do it

Exit Slip: April 9th

One major idea that i learned today was how to do a spreadsheet on google docs

i had a problem with putting the correction functions in for the expression , next time i will pay attention .

Math Report

The community box maker unit project was about trying to find the best design that works for both companys. my group only had 4 designs to compare because of lack of attendance for some .

1. UPS 165 ; w=h+2
2.FedEx Express 130 ; w=h+2

Danielle Lund designs were
1. Fedex Express 130 ; w=h
2. UPS 165 ; w=h

To complete my charts i had to generalize the length , girth , width , height and volume .
Fedex express my design was w=h+2 therefore my width was x+2 ; my girth was 4x+4; my Length was (130 -4x) my volume was (126-4x)(x+2)(x) Next i found the maximum x=13.4397
y=11927.8
For my UPS chart my design was w=h+2 . my width was x+2 ; my girth was 4x+2 ; my length was ( 165 -(4x+4) ; my volume was (165-4x+4))(x+2)(x).
the maximum was x=20.682 , y=20299.29
To make sure my volume expression was correct i typed it into the " y=" part on the calculater
and then pressed 2nd , GRAPH , a table came up then i checked to make sure my voulumes were correct .

On Danielle's chart she used Fedex express her design was w=h . she found the width which was x ; her length was (130-4x) ; her girth was 4x ; the volume came out to be (130-4x)(x)(x).
i found the maximum x= 21.666 , y=20342.593
She also used UPS her design was w=h. he found the width which was x ; her length was (165-4x); her girth was 4x ; the volume came out to be (165-4x)(x)(x) . the maximum was x= 27.5
y=41593.75 .

After finding all of these calculations i concluded that as the number you use gets smaller the max & min get increases .

Honestly , I feel that this project would have been easier if you put us in better groups .
I was confused because everybody was on different parts of the project. I wasn't behind. But i got it done , even though it was EXHAUSTING & VERY STRESSFUL .

Team Ruby Bridges

Ruby Bridges helped end segregation in schools. First black student in her elementary school , she also had to be brave & stand up to those who didnt want her there. her father didnt want her to attend the school because he feared them.

Community Box Maker Unit

After reading this project paper , i understand that we will be examining boxes offered by FedEx , etc .. I also know that we will be identifying the material id required to make each type of box .


1. When are we getting started ?
2. Will we be able to stay after school & work on it ?
3. How long will be working on it ?
