This document discusses solving quadratic equations by graphing. It explains that a quadratic equation has the form y=ax^2 + bx + c, with the quadratic, linear, and constant terms. A quadratic equation will have 0, 1, or 2 real solutions depending on the graph. The solutions are the x-intercepts where the graph crosses the x-axis. Examples show how to identify the solutions by graphing and finding the x-intercepts. The graph of a quadratic is a parabola with roots/zeros at the x-intercepts and a vertex as its maximum or minimum point. One method for graphing uses a table to plot points and sketch the parabola.
Using the zero product property, this document provides examples of solving equations by factorizing expressions with two factors and setting each factor equal to zero. It demonstrates solving equations of the form (factor 1)(factor 2)=0 for various variable expressions including linear, quadratic, and cubic equations. Step-by-step solutions are shown along with the process of factorizing, setting factors equal to zero, solving the resulting simple equations, and stating the solution sets.
A project of 4th grade students - A lollipop wrapper Galit Zamler
Four grade students in Israel have developed a new type of lollipop called "Easyli" that is larger than normal lollipops and uses Velcro to wrap and unwrap instead of sticky wrappers. The lollipop is easier to unwrap, can be used for a longer time since it is reusable, and is targeted towards children who struggle with normal lollipops and parents who don't want to make multiple candy purchases. The students plan to market their Easyli lollipops at corner shops and supermarkets.

This document discusses the difference between physical and chemical changes in matter. A physical change alters the form or properties of a substance without changing its chemical composition, such as cutting, crushing, dissolving, or changes in state. A chemical change results in one or more new substances being formed through chemical reactions, evidenced by signs like color change, bubbling, gas production or temperature change. Examples of physical changes given are melting ice, sawing wood, and evaporating a puddle. Chemical change examples include burning fuels, baking a cake, and dissolving sugar in tea.
The document discusses physical and chemical changes. Physical changes alter the state of a substance but do not create a new substance, such as melting, freezing, or breaking something into smaller pieces. Chemical changes form an entirely new substance, evidenced by a change in color, gas release, or new solid forming. Examples of physical changes include shattering a plate or melting wax, while examples of chemical changes include burning wood or rusting metal.

The distributive property is illustrated using the example of a truck driver delivering merchandise from a distribution center to multiple Walmart stores on their route. It states that to distribute a quantity, you multiply it by each term being distributed over. For example, 4(x + 6) can be written as 4x + 24, as the 4 is being distributed over (multiplied by) both the x and 6 terms. Following this property ensures the truck driver delivers merchandise to all stores on their route.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
