Oh my my, who do we have here?~

Welcome back dear guest of Mathland~

Would you perhaps accompany me on another tour? If so, then follow me~

Today, we will be learning about functions. A function is usually symbolized by the term f(x). Although it may seem confusing when put into a equation - for example, f(x) = 2x+4 - the f(x) is usually able to be replaced with "y". Therefore the equation f(x) = 2x+4 is basically just y = 2x+4. Also, a very important fact, the "x" in f(x) is merely a placeholder for what is to be substituted into the equation.

In addition, if you graph a function on a graph, if it passes the vertical line test, that means it is indeed a function. The vertical line test is simply just drawing vertical lines across the graph and seeing whether or not the line drawn goes through one point. If it does go through one point then it is a function. However, if it passes through two or more points, it is not.

Also, x stands for the domain for the function while y is the range. X usually goes from left to right or right to left, and y usually goes from up to down or bottom to top.

Speaking of top... has anyone seen the top hat the Mad Hatter wears? 

It's absolutely intriguing.~

Oh my, it seems we are running a tad bit late on time. The white rabbit would be absolutely appalled at this lateness. I shall bid you goodbye for now, dear Mathland 

guest. See you next time.~

Hello, my fantastic guests, and welcome! 

Today I will be taking you on a journey through the lessons of this week.~ 

Come along now..

~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~<>~

Starting off, we first learned about absolute values and how no matter what numbers you put into the absolute value, it will always emerge as a positive number. Therefore, if an equation of an absolute value equals to that of a negative number, it means there is no solution. 

In addition, an equation of an absolute value will be written in two different ways - there will be a positive and a negative equation.

Hmm..this has got me thinking... does absolute value not remind you a bit of our dear Tweedledee and Tweedledum? Imagine them as a positive and a negative number. When you place both of them within those absolute value brackets "|...|", they still come out with the same appearance, just as they both will come out positive! Since I've said this much, would you like to meet the two? Here they are -

Oh my...they seem a bit busy...perhaps next time then.~ 

Moving along...

Let us journey to our dear Absolem the Caterpillar since our next topic is about circles. 

In order to find the center and radius of a circle when given an equation, a simple method can be followed. By using the standard equation, (h,k) will be the center while "r" is the radius.

For example:

Similar to Absolem, the center and radius of the circles he releases are all able to be found if given an equation. His "O's" are quite long,  if I may say. After all, he does enjoy stressing his infamous "Whooooo...are...you?".

Well, that will be all for today, ladies and gentlemen.  

I bid you good-bye until the next week.~

Admin: I hope you enjoyed this post, forgive me for it is quite long! Thank you to a friend who helped me think of an analogy relating Tweedledee and  Dum to the absolute value!~

Welcome, dear guest of Mathland. I will be your tour guide for this lovely journey you have ahead of you.~

Admin: 

Hello everyone! My name is Shannon and this year in my math class, we are going to be blogging about our daily lessons - hence this blog. Since this blog /is/ titled "All About Me", I will give a brief introduction of myself.~

As already stated, my name is Shannon and I am a Junior attending Maranatha High School. Some of my interests include: listening to music, drawing, playing the piano, and surfing the Internet. I also enjoy playing tennis and - occasionally - swimming. I also have interests in online gaming (for ex. League of Legend, Aura Kingdom, Extalia, and etc). That will be all for now!~

Blog: Dedicated to the Queen of Mathland, Ms. V!~
