Homework and announcements

Here are the homework assignments for Algebra 2. Most of them refer to handout packets; copies of these handouts are available to you by logging into the FirstClass system.

Assignments will generally be added to this page daily, but if an assignment is given in class but doesn't get posted here for whatever reason, you're still responsible for it.

Cumulative test Fri. 11/5

On Fri. 11/5 we will have a course-wide cumulative test on the material we covered from the start of the course up to 10/25 (in other words, the units on functions and linear functions, but not the newest material on exponential functions).

We will spend two classes (11/2-11/3 for E block, 11/3-11/4 for F block) working on a set of review problems preparing for the test. Your homework for this period is to continue working through these review problems. Make sure you've finished all the review problems and checked your answers before Friday's test.
