Meet1 Results UPDATED

The tests were brutal! It was a new person writing the questions this year and he made them way too hard. He will try to remedy that in meet 2. It looks like SPA is going to run away with it. It also looks like So. St. Paul, who won it 3 years ago, is back. Notice, however, that both Friendly Hills and Heritage beat St. Paul Academy's Blue Team! And don't count out St. Thomas yet, their math team is also their soccer team and they had a game today so they only had 1 student.

MEET1 Instructions and My Prognostication

FRIENDLY HILLS

Go to the front office on Monday morning and get a pass from Liz Dahlstrom. You will need to leave you last hour class at 2:35. The bus will leave at 2:45 sharp. Meet Mr. Heinemann at the circular exit by the buses. We will return at 5:35

HERITAGE

Go to the attendance office on Monday morning and get a pass from Laura Wolf. You will need to leave you last hour class at 2:55. The bus will leave at 3:05 sharp. Meet Mr. Heinemann at the bottom of the sloping hallway at the pool entrance. We will return at 5:20.

At the Meet

Remember to put your name and school and team on your paper - eg John Doe FHMS Red
Remember to not waste time on a problem that is beyond you and concentrate on getting the ones you can do, right. Estimate, make charts, drawings, whatever you need to do - use the back side if necessary. Remember to supply the units if the problem needs them or you lose a point.

Prognostication
Here are the scores from last year. Based on this, I'd say SPA is going to win again, and Heritage and Friendly Hills will battle for 2nd place, but if SPA loses a player, it could be up to which team wants to work the hardest. SSP and STA may bring some strong 7th graders so it could be a free-for-all.

Math Team Scores from Sept. 23

Permission forms are available at the front office. Remember to get them filled out and returned to the main office. Save the schedule.

HERITAGE

I was looking forward to math club today, but no one showed up. Evidently I forgot to leave a written message at the front desk, so no announcement was made. Sorry. We'll just start next week - Room 242 aftre school on Monday 'til 4:15.

FRIENDLY HILLS

We had 13 students at our first Math Team meeting this morning. Six other students signed up but were not there this morning. Also, there are a few who did very well last year, but didn't sign up - like Hannah Kirby, Veronica Morse, and a few others.
Here are the scores from the two tests this morning. As you can see, test B is usually harder than test A. As you can see, there are 3 that look like gold for sure, then 5 or 7 more vying for those last three spots. If it's still tied next week, I'll have to look at last year's scores for tie-breakers.

Friendly Hills Teams For Meet5

Next Monday's meet is the final meet of the year and will be at Heritage. You'll need to get out a little early, so pick up an early excuse slip from Ms. Dahlstrom in the attendance office on Monday and meet me in the circular entrance nearest the buses. We Leave at 3:00. We'll be back at about 5:20.

A little terminology I forgot to mention this morning for box and whisker plots:
the two boxes and the two whiskers are call "quartiles" meaning one quarter of the values fall in a "quartile. The "inner quartiles" are the two boxes. The whiskers are also called the "lower" and "upper" quartiles. The "range" is the highest value minus the lowest value.

TEAM ASSIGNMENTS

Once again I have to have 2 non-8th graders on each team, so Dan Keis will be replaced by Brigham.
The red team could do quite well next week.

GOLD TEAM PRACTICE

For additional practice, what point is the intersection of 2x + 3y = 9 and x -5y = -15 ?

Hint: Get x or y all alone in one of the equations, then substitute.

For example, looking at the second equation we can say x = 5y - 15, so we can substitute 5y-15 for x in the first equation, then solve for y. Once you have the y value, you can replace y with it in either equation and solve for x. Now you have both x and y, so (x,y) will be the point of intersection of the two equations.
