classifying comics

Well having missed almost two weeks of school and finding out that it was my turn to be scribe first day back didn't exactly fill me with a nice bubbly feeling but instead a sense of dread of not knowing what was going on. So if this post isn't great I am sorry and I'll encourage anyone to add comments to try and correct it.

Well after the start of class and learning the rules for 4 conics the circle, ellipse, hyperbola, and parabola ( don't forget that a parabola can open up, down, right, or left) we then went on to how to go from general form to standard form which is basically working to simplify the equations to their simplest form.



and finally after a week away from class this here sums up how almost everything sounds.
