Math 9
Working hard at Surface Area.
Weekend Homework: complete page 35 #23.
The answer in the text is correct BUT the diagram is misleading.
The measurement of 25 is Horizontal--not slanted!! The "25" if the top of the pool.
It is the bottom line (going from the "shallow end" at 1 meter to the bottom of the "deep end" at 3m) that is slanted. This changes how you use Pythagorean's Theorem for the missing measurement. And they DO include the bottom as a "wall". Yeah. Go figure...

Math 8
Percents
Focus on when percents can be combined and when they cannot.
Weekend Homework: page 148 # 8. Use you MATH NOTES to guide you through this.
