exit slip 5/5

  1. The new surface area would be use to plug in into an equation and put it in the calculator to find the minimum of that equation.
  2. I do not know

Exit slip 5/6

so we can find the minumum of our cans surface area

so we continue our new designs for our can so we can minimize the material usage and keep same volume

  1. We need to combine two formulas because to find the Surface Area you need to find the height to plug in in to the Surface Area formula.
  2. I think i need to do the same to find the height for my can and also find the formula for pluggin in the radius

Exit Slip 4/30

The overall task of this PBAT is to find different designs of our cans that we have measure, and minimize the surface area of our cans and use less material but keeping the same volume of the can. So that means we changed around the Radius and the Height multiple times and keep the volume the same to keep our consumers happy with our company using less material in our cans.

Exit Slip 4/29

  • What was important of today's lesson was to change the design of the can but keep the volume the same.
  • the mathematical tool i use today was my calculator. It was helpful because i was dealing with dividing decimals which i cannot do in my head.

Exit Slip 4/23

i did not help jonathan or did he help me. I did all of my assignment for today, i found the surface area and the volume for my can. I learned to remember which is the equation for volume and for he surface area.I will not use his skill outside of school. I have no questions

Exit slip Lesson 4 again

y1 and y2 is reflective of each other. y1 is y=3x^2+100 and y2 is y=5x^2-100
So y2 is more wider than y1
