The document discusses fractions and how they are used to represent parts of a whole. It explains that fractions are written as two numbers separated by a slash, where the top number is the numerator and indicates the number of parts, and the bottom number is the denominator and indicates the total number of equal parts the whole was divided into. Examples using pizza slices are provided to illustrate how to represent fractions such as 3/6, 5/8, and 7/12 pictorially. The document also notes that whole numbers can be viewed as fractions with a denominator of 1.
1) Fractions represent parts of a whole. A fraction like 3/6 tells you that you have 3 out of the 6 equal slices of a pizza.
2) Fractions can be proper (numerator less than denominator), improper (numerator greater than denominator), or mixed (combination of whole number and fraction).
3) To add or subtract fractions, they must have a common denominator so they represent the same sized parts. You just add or subtract the numerators.
4) Improper fractions can also be written as mixed numbers by representing full wholes and any remaining fractional parts.
Addition is the process of combining two or more quantities and counting the total. It is represented by the plus (+) symbol. An example is adding 2 balloons and 3 balloons to get a total of 5 balloons. Addition can be used to combine any items that relate in some way, such as tools, peppers, or balls. A word problem example adds 2 apples and 3 oranges for a total of 5 pieces of fruit.

Indian classical music can positively impact human mind and behavior according to a study. The study measured the facial expressions and self-reported moods of participants before and after listening to Indian classical music tracks. The results showed that 96% of participants experienced calmer, more positive moods like feeling good, relaxed or nostalgic after listening. The study aims to explore how analyzing facial expressions in response to music could help diagnose mental illnesses and conditions like Alzheimer's or assess suicide risk.

It defines different types of fractions such as proper fractions, improper fractions, and mixed numbers. It then gives examples of how fractions are used when sharing food among friends, in recipes, and when wrapping gifts. Fractions are an important part of everyday life.
Fractions represent quantities that cannot be represented by whole numbers. A fraction consists of a numerator and denominator, where the denominator tells how many equal parts the whole is divided into and the numerator tells how many of those parts are being considered. Fractions can have equivalent forms when the whole is divided into a different number of parts. To compare fractions, they must first be converted to equivalent fractions with a common denominator. The fraction with the larger numerator is the greater fraction.
This document is a PowerPoint presentation about fractions for 8th grade students. It contains definitions of key fraction terms like numerator, denominator, improper fractions, and mixed numbers. It explains how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions, including using common denominators for addition and subtraction of unlike fractions. It also discusses equivalent fractions and how to determine if two fractions are equivalent using scale factors or cross-multiplication. The learning objectives are for students to understand fraction operations and how to find equivalent fractions.
The document discusses the concept of slope as it relates to functions. It introduces function notation and defines a function's output f(x). It explains that the slope of the line connecting two points (x, f(x)) and (x+h, f(x+h)) on a function graph is given by the difference quotient formula: m = (f(x+h) - f(x))/h. An example calculates the slope of the cord between points on the graph of f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 2.
The document discusses notation and algebra of functions. It defines a function as a procedure that assigns a unique output to each valid input. Functions are typically represented by mathematical formulas using notation like f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 3, where f(x) is the name of the function, x is the input, and the formula defines the output. The input box (parentheses) holds the input to be evaluated by the formula. New functions can be formed using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of existing functions. Examples are provided to demonstrate simplifying expressions involving function notation and evaluating functions for given inputs.
4 graphs of equations conic sections-circlesTzenma
There are two types of x-y formulas for graphing: functions and non-functions. Functions have y as a single-valued function of x, while non-functions cannot separate y and x. Many graphs of second-degree equations (Ax2 + By2 + Cx + Dy = E) are conic sections, including circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas. These conic section shapes result from slicing a cone at different angles. Circles consist of all points at a fixed distance from a center point.
The document discusses quadratic functions and parabolas. It begins by defining quadratic functions as functions of the form y = ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 0. It then provides an example of graphing the quadratic function y = x2 - 4x - 12. To do this, it finds the vertex by setting x = -b/2a, and uses the vertex and other points like the y-intercept to sketch the parabolic shape. It also discusses general properties of parabolas, such as being symmetric around a center line and having a highest/lowest point called the vertex that sits on this line.
The document discusses first degree (linear) functions. It explains that most real-world mathematical functions can be composed of formulas from three groups: algebraic, trigonometric, and exponential-log. Linear functions of the form f(x)=mx+b are especially important, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The graphs of equations of the form Ax+By=C are straight lines. The slope formula for calculating the slope between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a line is given as m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
The document discusses the basic language of functions. A function assigns each input exactly one output. Functions can be defined through written instructions, tables, or mathematical formulas. The domain is the set of all inputs, and the range is the set of all outputs. Functions are widely used in mathematics to model real-world relationships.
The document discusses rational equations word problems involving multiplication-division operations and rate-time-distance problems. It provides an example of people sharing a taxi cost and forms a rational equation to determine the number of people. It also shows how to set up rate, time, and distance relationships using a table for problems involving hiking a trail with different rates of travel for the outward and return journeys.
The document discusses using rational equations to solve word problems involving costs shared among groups of people. It provides an example where a taxi costs $20 to rent for a group of x people, with the cost shared equally. If one person leaves the group, the remaining people each pay $1 more. Setting up the cost equations and subtracting them allows solving for x as 5, the number of original people in the group. A table is shown to organize the calculations for different inputs.
The document discusses ratios and proportions. It defines a ratio as two related quantities stated side by side, and gives an example of a 3:4 ratio of eggs to flour in a recipe. It explains how to write ratios as fractions and set up proportion equations. Proportions are equal ratios, like 3:4 being proportional to 6:8. The document shows how to solve proportion equations by cross-multiplying to obtain a regular equation that can then be solved for the unknown value.
The document discusses methods for simplifying complex fractions. A complex fraction is a fraction with fractions in the numerator or denominator. The first method is to combine the numerator and denominator into single fractions using cross multiplication. The second method is to multiply the lowest common denominator of all terms to both the numerator and denominator. Examples are provided to demonstrate both methods.
The document discusses techniques for combining fractions with opposite denominators. It explains that we can multiply the numerator and denominator by -1 to change the denominator to its opposite. It provides examples of switching fractions to their opposite denominators and combining fractions with opposite denominators by first switching one denominator so they are the same. It also discusses an alternative approach of pulling out a "-" from the denominator and passing it to the numerator when switching denominators, ensuring the leading term is positive for polynomial denominators.
The document discusses addition and subtraction of rational expressions. It states that fractions with the same denominator can be directly added or subtracted, while those with different denominators must first be converted to have a common denominator. The document provides an addition/subtraction rule and examples demonstrating how to perform these operations on rational expressions, including converting fractions to equivalent forms with a specified common denominator.
The document discusses the least common multiple (LCM) and provides examples to illustrate the concept. It describes two methods for finding the LCM - the searching method and the construction method. The searching method involves finding the smallest number that is a multiple of all the given numbers. The construction method builds the minimum that covers all requirements by taking just enough of each specification. An example demonstrates taking the maximum number of years required for each subject across different college requirements.
3 multiplication and division of rational expressions xTzenma
The document discusses multiplication and division of rational expressions. It presents the multiplication rule for rational expressions, which is that the product of two rational expressions is equal to the product of the numerators divided by the product of the denominators. It then gives examples of simplifying products and quotients of rational expressions by factoring and canceling like terms.
The document discusses terms, factors, and cancellation in mathematics expressions. It provides examples of identifying terms and factors in expressions, and using common factors to simplify fractions. Key points include:
- A mathematics expression contains one or more quantities called terms.
- A quantity multiplied to other quantities is a factor.
- To simplify a fraction, factorize it and cancel any common factors between the numerator and denominator.
The document discusses rational expressions, which are expressions of the form P/Q, where P and Q are polynomials. Polynomials are expressions involving powers of variables with numerical coefficients. Rational expressions include polynomials as a special case where P is viewed as P/1. They can be written in expanded or factored form. The factored form is useful for solving equations, determining the domain of a rational expression, evaluating inputs, and determining the sign of outputs. The domain excludes values that make the denominator equal to 0.
The document provides examples of how to translate word problems into mathematical equations using variables. It introduces using a system of two equations to solve problems involving two unknown quantities, labeled as x and y. An example word problem is provided where a rope is cut into two pieces, and the lengths of the pieces are defined using the variables x and y. The equations are set up and solved to find the length of each piece. The document also discusses organizing multiple sets of data into tables to solve word problems involving multiple entities.
The document provides an example of solving a system of linear equations using the substitution method. It begins with the system 2x + y = 7 and x + y = 5. It solves the second equation for x in terms of y, getting x = 5 - y. This expression for x is then substituted into the first equation, giving 10 - 2y + y = 7, which can be solved to find the value of y, and then substituted back into the original equation to find the value of x. The solution is presented as (2, 3). The document then provides two additional examples demonstrating how to set up and solve systems of equations using the substitution method.
The document discusses systems of linear equations. It provides examples to illustrate that we need as many equations as unknowns to solve for the unknown variables. For a system with two unknowns, we need two equations; for three unknowns, we need three equations. The document also gives examples of setting up and solving systems of linear equations to find unknown costs given information about total costs.
The document discusses equations of lines. It separates lines into two cases - horizontal and vertical lines which have a slope of 0 or undefined, and their equations are y=c or x=c; and tilted lines, whose equations can be found using the point-slope formula y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line. It provides examples of finding equations of lines given their characteristics like slope and intercept points.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The phrase “the 5’s cancelled each other” is used sometime to
describe “5 – 5 = 0” in the sense that they’re reduced to “0”,
i.e. the 5’s neutralized each other.
