Check out PurpleMath.com
The homework guidelines posted above come from a great website, PurpleMath.com.
If you ever get stuck on a topic, check their site and they may explain the topic in a way that makes sense to you.
There are also links to other math related sites, specifically other precalculus sites. Let me know if you find something that you think the rest of the class might find useful!
Also, in the previous post, I thought that this site no longer existed. It was only temporarily down so that they could move to a different server.

What Does a Good Math Homework Assignment Look Like?
What are some things that a good math homework assignment should have?
There was a great math website that had practical advice about how to set up a good math assignment. Unfortunately, the original site is down. However, I was able to get a copy of their homework guidelines.
I have set up a page, to the right of Home, where I have posted these homework guidelines. I would like you to use these when you do your homework.

Having Trouble With Matrix Multipliaction?
Sometimes using a different approach to the same topic can help us better understand it.
Here's a link to Purplemath.com that illustrates how to do matrix multiplication.
http://www.purplemath.com/modules/mtrxmult.htm
Keep in mind, she shows her work a little differently than we do. In class, we set up a single work matrix, three levels deep for each number in the matrix. She splits them up into three separate matrices. I would appreciate it if you would use ONE work matrix with three levels. It is also easier to check when they are all in one matrix. Remember to write an answer matrix when you are done.
The lesson is three pages long. Don't forget to look at all three.
