The two types of graphs are helpful in a variety of disciplines. In particular, mathematicians tend to use line graphs much more often then scatter plots. Can you think of a discipline that uses more scatter plots than line graphs?

We use scatterplot graphs and line graphs together to record our progress to our clients. We have a complicated system of progressing construction and each entry allows for the progress to go up percentage wise. We have scatterplot points for certain dates along with percentages and line segments that can show if we are on a late schedule or if we are early. These graphs are presented to our management team and the clients we do work for so that they can have an idea of where each project stands. If we are on the early schedule then we stand to make more profit, but if we are late then we can end up losing hundred of thousands if not millions of dollars.

Microsoft Office states that scatter plots are most often used for “displaying and comparing numeric values, such as scientific, statistical, and engineering data” (Microsoft Office, 2012). These types of charts are useful for showing the relationships among the numeric values of data. I believe that medical researchers tend to use scatter plots as a way to show their completed data from any of their studies. The Census Bureau would use the scatter plot to show the population of the U.S.

There are many uses for scatterplots by many different companies, agencies and information. However, the discipline that I was referring to is Statistics. It is a completely different area of study than mathematics (even though many people think they are the same), and focuses on looking at a variety of data to extrapolate a theory or general idea for the data. You mentioned the Census and they ways they may use scatter plots. In addition, some of your classmates also gave some good examples. Can you think of any examples where you might use a scatterplot in everyday life?

A line graph tracks changes over a given period of time. The information is easy to read and understand. * A Person could monitor weight gain/loss. If you are attempting the first you would be going from the lower left hand corner to the upper right. If you are attempting the latter, you would be going from the upper left to the lower right. This is just connecting the dots. It would be good to find out which months or holidays have the most sales.

To me, the scatter point is hard to read. I can see graphing the slope in this to help with showing trends, etc. about something, but it is more difficult to get a good reading when you are just looking at it. The line graph seems simpler to read. Most of the charts that a person reads seem to be in a line graph format. When the points are graphed and the line is drawn you can see the trends so much easier. But, I guess it all depends on the person setting up the information and who reads it.

One example of a scatter plot is when a person decides to lose weight. They could incorporate the data into a scatter plot to see how their diet is really coming along. It would show them weeks when they did not do quite as well and went off the dieting. An example of a line graph would be to mark a trend for a weekend crafter who sells their wares at festivals or online. They could enter their sales data for the month against their sales data for the same month the year before and connect their data for both years. This would allow them a visual to see how the sales go.

One thing we find as we get further along in mathematics is that there are different terms that essentially mean the same thing. For instance, we use the term “multiply” for most of our young life and then we add in “product” later one (which means the same thing). The term “x-intercept” has a few synonyms – 3 to be exact. One of them is a “solution”. We often find a solution to an equation and that is also the x-intercept. Can anyone tell the class what the other 2 terms are?

/in Uncategorized /by LizIs Democracy a viable option for all nations in today’s world? Why or Why not?
/in Uncategorized /by LizFollowing World War II, many newly independent countries were shaped by strong leaders like Indira Gandhi, Anwar Sadat, Jomo Kenyatta and Suharto. Their actions and policies have continued to affect their countries even up to the present.
Write a letter to one historical leader mentioned in this chapter (does not necessarily have to be one of those pictured above). Using the Internet and other resources, research current developments in your chosen leader’s country. Research the policies of the historic leader you have chosen, then write a letter to the historical leader to bring him/her up to date a to the impact that leader’s actions and policies have had on the course of development in his/her country.
Some new nations, such as Ghana, agreed to become part of the British Commonwealth. Other nations, such as Myanmar (formerly Burma), chose not to join. What factors affected a former colony’s decision to join or not to join the British Commonwealth?

linear models
/in Uncategorized /by LizLinear models are a part of everyday life, but many times they are not easily visible. They can be easily related to our life experiences. Read each of the three scenarios below to see how linear models show up in our lives and how we can use them to make decisions. Answer the related questions.
- Marco and his two younger sisters would like to purchase a silver charm bracelet for their mother’s birthday. They went to the mall and found what they were looking for at Store A. In Store A, the bracelet without charms costs $85 and each charm costs $15.
- Use function notation that models the total price of the bracelet and how that price is based on the number of charms. Explain the reasoning behind your equation.
- What would be a reasonable domain for this function based on this scenario? Explain why this is a proper domain.
- If Marco and his sisters have saved $250, make a graph to show all of the charms they could purchase with a bracelet if they had saved between $85 and $250.
- Marco found five charms that he likes. Using your function, determine the cost of the bracelet he would make.
- As they walked down the hall of the mall, Marco saw this sales flyer for Store B on a bench.
Marco is wondering from which store he should buy the items so that he spends the least amount of money. Which store should Marco use if he wanted the five charms and silver bracelet all together? What advice can you tell Marco to help him shop wisely depending on the number of charms he wants to buy? Justify how you reasoned your answers.
- While in the United States visiting her grandmother, Kendra copied the famous family apple pie recipe. When she returns to England, she plans on making the same apple pie for her friends. To do this, Kendra needs to convert the flour from cups to grams. She knows that 0.5 cup of flour has a mass of 64 grams and 2 cups of flour has a mass of 256 grams.
- Write a function that shows grams as a function of cups. Use g(x).
- Given this scenario, determine a reasonable domain for this function.
- Graph the relationship between the number of cups and grams of flour.
- Evaluate g(x) for any value of x within the domain. Interpret the meaning of your solution in the context of this problem.
- Look at the method you used to evaluate your function in part D. Explain another way you can evaluate the function for the same input.
- Interpret what it means to have g(-2), and determine if this is reasonable given the situation.

A coffee shop pays Coffee Delivery Company A, a certain price for each disposable cup it orders plus a weekly delivery charge to remain on the driver’s delivery route. The cups are purchased in increments of 500. To quickly determine how much the coffee shop will be spending on cups before their arrival, the owner created the following table:
Cups Ordered Price 0 $7 500 $25.50 1,000 $44 1,500 $62.50 2,000 $81 2,500 $99.50 3,000 $118 - The price of the cups, p(x), is a function of the number of x cups ordered. Using the table, determine the average rate of change for the first 1,000 cups ordered and then for all 3,000 cups ordered. What does this tell you about the function?
- Use the table to evaluate and interpret p(0). What is a possible explanation for this?
- Sketch a graph, labeling its key features, to show the price the coffee shop would pay Coffee Delivery A to have between 0 and 3,000 cups delivered each week.
- Create a model using function notation that represents how the two quantities, cups and cost, are related.
- The coffee shop found another delivery company that sells orders at increments of 500 cups, Coffee Delivery B. They charge $3.50 each week to be on their delivery route and charge 3.9 cents per disposable cup.
- Make a function using the information about the second delivery company.
- Graph the price the coffee shop would pay for Coffee Delivery B to deliver the same amount of cups on the same graph from Part C, using a different color for the new line.
- If the coffee shop can change delivery companies every three months, when should they consider Coffee Delivery A, and when should they consider Coffee Delivery B?
