TEST TOMORROW!

Tomorrow we have our test on sections 2.1, 2.2, and the long/synthetic division from 2.3! STUDY, STUDY, STUDY!

Tomorrow's test will have a MAJOR impact on your grade (hopefully in a good way)--so be ready! Prepare yourself!

Here's an outline of what's on your test: (the section of the book is listed in parentheses)

  • Use your notes to study!
  • Look over the stamp problems from yesterday and today!
  • Use your PDF textbook and other links (like Khan) to study!
  • Also, look over your 2.1 and 2.2 quiz to study!
  • Convert a quadratic to standard form (2.1)
  • Given a quadratic equation, find the vertex, x-intercepts, y-intercept, and then sketch the graph (2.1)
  • Divide polynomials using synthetic division (2.3)
  • Given a function, identify the degree, leading coefficient, constant term, describe end behavior with appropriate notation (2.2)
  • Divide polynomials using long division (2.3)
  • Find the zeros for a given polynomial by factoring (2.2)
  • Determine if two quadratics have the same axis of symmetry (2.1)
  • Write the standard form of a polynomial given its zeros (2.2)
  • Factor (2.1, 2.2, and 2.3)
    • Factor by grouping, factor with a difference of two squares, factor a "trinomial:--three terms
  • Find the "a" value for a given quadratic (2.1; look over our 2.1 SAT questions)
  • Given a polynomial, determine the end behavior, find the x and y intercepts, find some additional points, and then graph the polynomial (2.2)
