TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY!!!!! I"M GONNA BE AN ADULT WHO CAN VOTE AND STUFF!!!!! Yay.
We started the week off with more optimization, which I now feel that I have a better grasp on. For the quiz on Tuesday, I felt like it went very well considering that I didn't feel totally confident about optimization as a whole. After taking the quiz, I do feel better about my abilities of being able to optimize.
On Wednesday, we started Mr. Cresswell's favorite section, related rates. When I saw the first problem, I was like "Are you kidding me." But with the Six Steps to Greatness, I can do any related rates problem. The steps go as followed:
1) Draw and label a diagram (generally)
2) Find a model for the situation
3) Take the derivative of your model
4) Write down everything you know
5) Plug in the know values
6) Solve for the unknown and state your solution in the context for the problem
And voila! You can solve any related rates problem! It's it wonderful?
