Future success

This future success project is important because it shows you how it is to be a adult and how to save your money. This project is also important because it shows how to budget your money an how it is to have a carer as a adult. At the end this project was very important because it shows me how to save money and what it is like to have a job as a music producer. Another reason this project is important it shows you how to handle your money and how to stay out of debt

Back to the Future

This project was about predicting what will things cost in 2029. The way we had to find them was by using percent change and pemdas to come up with our predictions. Yes I did enjoy doing this project . I enjoyed this project because I got to work with my friends and look on the internet to find all our items and how much they were in 1989. The project was a little difficult because when we was looking for the prices of cretin things the website gave me different answers. For example when I went to ask.com I put in what was the cost of a gallon of gas in 1989 the computer put in what was the cost of a gallon of gas in 1987 and then we had to keep look for the answer on every website . If we have to do this project again I would and I would not do anything different because what I did on this one was good.

mood-poetry

The mood of the poem this poem is sad an unhappy felling. I know because in the song neo talks about all things going wrong in his relation so he wants to make it write and he want to make up with his girl. I think the poet wrote this poem with this mood to explain what sometimes happens in some relation ships.

Transformations-conclusion

Yes I did enjoy this unit. You can apply a transformation to every day life when you are putting tiles on your floor you have to know how much you have to dilate a tile to fit a room or translate it over .

poems

I think poems are more interesting then prose because in a poem they make a story short with a lot of details and they make the story rhyme so it could sound more interesting .

Transformations-Dilations

A dilated figure changes it's shapes size.When you zoom in on a photo you are making things bigger .zooming relates to dilation by making some thing bigger because in dilation you make something bigger or smaller . If a figure undergoes a dilation with a scale factor of 1.5 the figure does get bigger because the scale factor is greater than one.It is not the same if the scale factor is 0.5 because o.5 is less than 1 and if a scale factor is less than one the the dilation's will be smaller. A dilation differs from a translation because in a translation you change the location and in a dilation you change the size.

Transformations-Translations

When looking at two figures I know which shape has the transformation by looking at the shapes plotted points for example A,B,C,D are the plotted points then there will be another set of points like A',B',C',D', the plotted points with the comma are the plotted points with the transformation.Words I could use to describe a translation is transform and change .The new transformed points are called prime points.A new translated figure will never change shape because a translation is changing a shapes location.You can translate a figure whit out a coordinate by using the plotted points to help you change the shape for example if you have a triangle and the plotted points are (3,7) - (2,4) - (5,5) and in the problem it says to move the figure 2 units to the left or right all you do is add 2 units to the x-axis and then your figure will change to (5,7) - (4,4) - (7,5).
