The start of Chapter 2

We are starting chapter 2 with modeling problems (word problems!). They all focus on polynomials so that you have a context for our more theoretical study of the material.  Due to Columbus Day and a professional development day, one homework assignment will cover almost a week of real time.

10/09  Power functions and polynomial functions
           HW Demana p.76/45  and  p.170-174/35,37,49,51,54,55,
                 57,68-71  plus  Brown p.42-43/38,44
Note: The problems in red will be done in class for H-Block.

If you need more practice with quadratic functions, look at Demana p.170/19-34.
