Finding Percentages

Struggling with step 9? Check out this quick video to recall how we turn quantities into percentages...

Finding a percentage: Once again, fractions are our friends as we use them to find a percentage. You'll also see a couple of different ways to arrive at the answer.

Interpreting Box Plots

Need more help reasoning about your box plot and what it means? Check this out.

Box Plots and IQR

This quick lesson shows you how to use box plots to calculate range and IQR in order to compare different data sets.

Mean absolute deviation example:

Mean, Median & Mode

Finding mean, median and mode: Here we give you a set of numbers and then ask you to find the mean, median, and mode. It's your first opportunity to practice with us!

Histograms

Histograms: Learn how to create histograms, which summarize data by sorting it into buckets.

Frequency Tables & Dot Plots

Frequency tables and dot plots: In this video, we organize data into frequency tables and dot plots (sometimes called line plots).

Statistical Questions

What are they and why do we have them?!

Statistical questions: What makes a question a "statistical question"?

Khan: Area of a Circle

Area of a circle: In this example, we solve for the area of a circle when given the diameter. If you recall, the diameter is the length of a line that runs across the circle and through the center.

Khan: Circumference

Circumference of a circle: Here we find the circumference, the distance around a circle, given the area. We're building on our knowledge of the parts of circle.

Khan: Area of a Trapezoid

Area of a trapezoid: A trapezoid is a cousin of the parallelogram. However, in trapezoid only two of the opposing sides are parallel to each other. Here's we explain how to find its area.

Fact Monster: Baseball Geometry

This resource gives you a quick refresher on finding area of triangles and then lets you play a little baseball using this skill. Check it out for extra practice and fun!

Khan: Comparing Absolute Value

Check this out and then knock out the related TenMarks. You've got this!

Comparing absolute values: When we compare numbers we use the concepts of greater than (>), less than (<), and equal to (=). The same is true of absolute values.

All-Star Lesson on 6.5

Check out Ben, Aaike, and Emilia's lesson on 6.5: Percent of Change. It's entertaining and informative. Way to go guys!

Khan: Percent Word Problems

From our "Do Now" today!

Percent word problem example 3: You're given the percent in this example and asked to find the whole number represented by the percent.

Khan: Converting Percent to Decimal & Fraction

Check this out if you need more examples...

Converting percent to decimal and fraction: You'll find that be able to move easily between percentages, decimals, and fractions is HUGELY helpful. So let's practice!

Khan: Converting Percents to Decimals

Converting percents to decimals: Remember that "per cent" means "per hundred." Knowing that, converting a percent to a decimal is done by dividing by a 100. We'll demonstrate.

Khan: Inequalities on Number Lines

Inequalities: plotting on a number line: We've been taking a lot of equalities. What about when the relationships between numbers need to be expressed as inequalities? For example, less/greater than and/or equal to? How can we represent that idea on a number line?

Khan: Testing Inequality Solutions

Testing solutions to inequalities:

Khan: Combining Like Terms

Extra support for 7.3 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions.

Combining like terms explained: Another good explanation (minus Chuck Norris) on the how we combine like terms in algebra. This will totally make sense.

Khan: Solving Equations II (x and ÷)

This covers the second part of 8.1...

Simple equations of the form x/a = b: Remember that what you do to one side, you have to do to the other. Will you multiply or divide both sides to dump the fraction, x/a? Let's do it together.

Khan: Solving Simple Equations (+ and -)

Watch this if you need more support with the Tuesday's lesson on 8.1:

Simple equations of the form x + a = b: Here's another one-step equation to solve. Unlike the previous two that involved multiplication and division, this one adds a number to the variable. Which operation is opposite of addition?

Khan: Evaluating Expressions

Evaluating an expression example: Evaluate the given expression where the variable could have 3 possible values. Understanding how expressions are interpreted according to different variable values is a huge new skill. Pat on the back!
