5. Lesson 6: Algebraic Expressions
Algebraic expressions  uses numbers, operations, and variables to show number relationships
Variables  letters that represent unknown numbers
Simplifying and Evaluating Expressions
Simplifying an expression
Terms  a number, a variable, or the product or quotient of numbers and variables
Like terms
Distributive property
Evaluating
The earliest americans traveled from Asia to North America. These americans were called “Native Americans”. They were the first to settle, until an explorer name Christopher Columbus arrived. There were many explorers traveling and discovering the world in the late 1400s. In 1492, CC set out across the Atlantic ocean. He was rejected by multiple Kings, and finally went to Spain and convinced them finance his trip. At first he assumed he found India and later on it was discovered that he actually found the “new world”.
After this discovery, European nations set out to conquer what they could. In other terms, they discovered new “colonies”.
Was about power, wealth, and place to live

6. Lesson 6: Algebraic Expressions
Simplifying and Evaluating Expressions
Factor and multiples
Factors  when you multiply 2 numbers to create a product, the numbers you multiply are the factors
Prime numbers  positive whole numbers with only two positive factors, 1 and the number itself
Prime factorization  includes more than two factors
Greatest common factor (GCF)  largest number that divides evenly into both integers
Least common multiple (LCM)  smallest number that both integers divide into

7. Lesson 8: Understand Polynomials
Polynomial  made up of terms; poly=“many”
Coefficients  includes numbers & comes before the variable
Variables  letters such as x and y
Exponents  powers
Degree  polynomial with only 1 variable is the largest exponent of that variable
Constant  number on its own that will remain the same

8. Lesson 8: Understand Polynomials
Monomial  only one term
Binomial  with two terms
Trinomial  with three terms

9. Lesson 9: Simplify Polynomials
Combine like terms:
They have variables that are the same or are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power
Example: 5y and 3y
Unlike terms:
They have variables that are different or are terms that have the same variable raised to different powers
Example: 5y2 and 3y4 OR 5x and 7z

10. Lesson 10: Add & Subtract Polynomials
Add with one variable:
Combine like terms
Subtract with one variable:
Combine like terms, BUT can’t forget to distribute the minus sign

11. Life Science

12. Lesson 6: Modern Genetics
Chromosomes  rod shaped structures in the nucleus of each cell, responsible for carrying genes from parent organism to their offspring.
Sperm cell + ovum = offspring with full set of chromosomes, 23 total
1 chromosome contains thousands of genes on a single molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)

13. Lesson 6: Modern Genetics
DNA controls the cell’s production of proteins, which tells the organism what to do
Protein synthesis  gene produces protein on ribosomes

14. Lesson 6: Modern Genetics
Codon  3 base pair, contains instructions for creating an amino acid  protein building block
The order of bases on the gene forms a genetic code to synthesize a particular protein

15. Lesson 7: Evolution & Natural Selection
Beagle…Charles Darwin
His observations led to the theory of evolution
Galapagos Islands; diversity of animals
Adaptations  traits that help an organism survive in its environment
Natural selection  individuals that are better adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing favorable traits to offspring

16. Lesson 8: Organization of Ecosystems
Ecosystem  area consisting of a community of organism
Earth as a whole is known as the biosphere
A healthy ecosystem contains a diversity of organisms
Producers  green plants
Consumers  depends on producers to
meet energy needs
Food web  complex pattern in which
energy passes through an ecosystem

17. Economics
Gonzales, Spring 2017

18. Lesson 3: The Economy & the US Government
The executive & the legislative branches set the US budget
The government determines our taxes, employs people, and borrow and spend much money
surplus of revenue  elected leaders may either spend the additional finds or cut taxes
Deficit  requiring the government to borrow money to cover its expenses
Responsible for maintaining good conditions for our free market system
Laws and courts in place to maintain property rights
Stable currency  US mint, makes coins and paper money

19. Lesson 3: The Economy & the US Government
Central banking system  Federal Reserve System, manages the total amount of money available for lending and borrowing in the private banking system and partially controls interest rates
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)  insures the money in individual bank accounts in case of bank fraud or failure
Federal government promotes the general welfare of the nation
Free market does not distribute wealth according to what people need to live on, collect taxes
Infrastructure  interstate highways, supports economic activity
Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) special federal agency charges to protect workers on the job
Food & Drug Administration (FDA)  making sure food products are safe
Federal Trade Commission (FTC)  ensures product claims in advertising & on package labels are true & complete

20. Lesson 4: Labor & Consumer Issues
Workers…earn wages & benefits in exchange for labor
Aid for only what they do
Earnings fluctuate
Salaries
Piecework
Benefits
Compensation  combined value of wages & benefits
Workers & employers…pay taxes & buy insurance
Unemployment 
Economic changes cause lost of jobs

21. Lesson 4: Labor & Consumer Issues
Labor unions  in certain industries and professions
Collective bargaining  inions negotiate contracts for wages and fail, so unions strike  workers refuse to work
Mediators  intervene
We all participate in the US economy as consumers
