Welcome Back! Concepts for April 11th

Algebra I

Today we discussed
Midpoints of lines was the topic of discussion today.  Finding the midpoint is really as simple as finding the average of the x-coordinates of the end-points and the average of the y-coordinates of the end points.

Pre-Algebra

Today we discussed
Today we took our process of finding solutions to equations with two variables and used it plot the points we found on a graph.  Because we have the power to pick whatever values we want for "x", we talked about what made good choices to keep the equations as easy as possible to solve.

Sections Covered in Textbook
1) 8-6: Graphing Equations (pages 299-301)
