My Math Life
In life I use math all of the time. I use it in school and real life. In school, I do pretty well in math. All of my past grades in math class are A's. Typically in the past I haven't had a lot of trouble with math.
Believe it or not math is my favorite subject. In all honesty I don't have many struggles in math. It comes to me fairly easy with very few struggles. The amount of success I have in math class defiantly out weighs the struggles.
Absolute value
Absolute value means how far the number is away from zero. |5| = 5 because its 5 spots away from zero. |-5| = 5 because even though its negative it is still 5 spots away from 5.
Absolute value problems can have many solutions, one solution, or no solutions. For example, a no solution problem would be something like |5x-2|= -10 isn't possible because the answer will be positive. An example of one solution problems would be |8x|. If x was 3 then the answer would be 24. And last an example of a many solution problem would be |n- 4|= 13. The answers would be -9, 17
Converting inches to centimeters problem
Y=2.54x
In the equation y is centimeters and x is inches.
In the graph the y intercept is centimeters and the x intercept is inches. For example the y intercept and x intercept meet at 5 and 2 so for 5 centimeter there are 2 inches. So if you use the equation there are 30.48 centimeters in a foot.
