Discrete Mathematics - Tuesday November 20 2018 Review: Power Index

We had PBL meeting today for half of the class while we did our Discrete Math Thinker's Toolkit (summarizing our CH 1 notes). And so, the only video worth noting is a review of the power index from chapter 1 as bell work.

AP Calculus AB - Monday November 19 2018 CH 2.6 Related Rates | Part 2

We started with listing down important equations to help solve these problems.

Monday 11/19/2018 Part 1/2

Then we did some HW problems together. Please note I made a mistake on plugging in pi/6 to the t value. We addressed this in class. Leave the front as y'(t), and not y'(pi/6). (No Video for this)


Last, we reviewed dimensional analysis.
