Monday's Test Topics

Here’s a list of topics that will be covered on this Monday’s Chapter 4 Test

Chapter 4 Test Topics
Increasing/Decreasing Intervals
Interpret information about the original function from the graph of the derivative
Interpret the meaning of first and/or second derivatives in applications
Determine increasing/decreasing intervals, local extrema, concavity and point(s) of inflection given a function
Sketch a graph of a function given conditions about local and absolute extrema
Find absolute extrema
Determine conditions necessary for points of inflection
Match graphs to first and second derivatives
Optimization problems

That’s it! I’ll be in early on Monday, and available after school today…

At New York's Kennedy Airport today, an individual, later discovered to be a public school teacher, was arrested trying to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, and a calculator. Attorney General John Ashcroft believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-Gebra movement. He is being charged with carrying weapons of math instruction.
Al-Gebra is a very fearsome cult, indeed.They desire average solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on a tangent in a search of absolute value. They consist of quite shadowy figures, with names like "x" and "y", and, although they are frequently referred to as "unknowns", we know they really belong to a common denominator and are part of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the great Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, there are 3 sides to every angle, and if God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes.
Therefore, I'm extremely grateful that our government has given us a sine that it is intent on protracting us from these math-dogs who are so willing to disintegrate us with calculus disregard.
These statistic bastards love to inflict plane on every sphere of influence. Under the circumferences, it's time we differentiated their root, made our point, and drew the line. These weapons of math instruction have the potential to decimal everything in their math on a scalar never before seen unless we become exponents of a Higher Power and begin to appreciate the random facts of vertex.
As our Great Leader would say, "Read my ellipse". Here is one principle he is uncertainty of---though they continue to multiply, their days are numbered and sooner or later the hypotenuse will tighten around their necks.
