This nine weeks, I have learned many useful and exciting math skills. At times, it seemed hard and stressful, but I managed to pull through. I’ve learned how to add and subtract negative numbers, aswell as multiplying and dividing. There’s a simple rule multiplying and dividing. (If you’re multiplying or dividing by a negative, the number’s negative. ex: 7 * -7 = -49)

Now, performing the distributive property and combining like terms using the distributive property, was a little challenging, but I also pulled through on this. I would show an example, but it’s easier just to solve a problem on Khanacademy. (which I will do if needed)

I also can evaluate positive, zero, and negative exponents. (ex: 7^3 = 7 * 7 * 7 = 343)                                 With negative exponents, you just flip the number. (ex: 7^-2 = 1/49)

I can simplify expressions using exponents aswell. (Again, it would be easier just to show on Khanacademy.)

In Conclusion, I have learned many useful skills in Math this nine weeks. Overall, math is pretty fun and easy. Even though it is easy, I do need to practice and keep my brain sharp. I believe I deserve a B for these nine weeks, just because I could have put some extra effort in (practicing at home) if I wanted to.
