Touch Mathematics The Order of Operations: PEMDAS Purplemath If you are asked to simplify something like "4 + 2×3", the question that naturally arises is "Which way do I do this? Because there are two options!" ...or I could multiply first: Which answer is the right one? MathHelp.com It seems as though the answer depends on which way you look at the problem. To eliminate this confusion, we have some rules of precedence, established at least as far back as the 1500s, called the "order of operations". A common technique for remembering the order of operations is the abbreviation (or, more properly, the "acronym") "PEMDAS", which is turned into the mnemonic phrase "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally". Parentheses (simplify inside 'em) Exponents Multiplication and Division (from left to right) Addition and Subtraction (from left to right) When you have a bunch of operations of the same rank, you just operate from left to right.

Mathematical Images: Symmetry | MissQuinnMaths I love finding ‘maths pictures’, and thought it would be nice to start collecting and sharing them. Symmetry is the easiest to begin with, unsurprisingly. Images with simple line symmetry can be great for young (i.e. Y7) pupils to engage with, allowing for discussions about strategies to ‘test’ to how symmetrical an image is and how it could be improved to be ‘more’ symmetrical (this is a good ‘way in’ to using squared paper to complete reflections). Rotational symmetry is fun to explore with an interactive whiteboard, and more practical activities abound (e.g. for homework pupils can draw their own Rangoli patterns, or make patterned wedges that can be repeated to build up a whole shape). Some of my most able Y7 pupils wrote excellent pieces discussing symmetry in buildings and gave their opinions on how symmetry affected the attractiveness of a building or shop display. Some examples of line symmetry: Some examples of rotational symmetry: Post links to any images of your own! Like this:

Each chemical equation worksheet comes with answers and can be downloaded as a pdf file. Chemistry worksheets for download Identification of salts from a variety of acid reactions What happens in a chemical reaction? Chemical reactions are like a ‘dance’. Old chemicals(reactants) rearrange to produce new chemicals(products) Reactants → Products The arrow means 'produces' In a chemical reaction atoms are rearranged as old chemical bonds are broken and new chemical bonds are formed.The 'law of conservation of mass' is supported as the weight doesn’t change between the mass of the reactants and the mass of the products. How to balance a chemical equation In balancing chemical equations you need to remember to three important points. You do not change the chemical formula of a substance to balance an equation. Example of how to balance a chemical equation Hydrogen + Oxygen →Water Check the number of atoms for each element.
Vi Hart: Math Doodling Remember that video about doodling dragons and fractals and stuff? I finally finished part 2! Here is a magnet link so you can dowload it via torrent. Here it is on YouTube: You can tell I worked on it for a long time over many interruptions (travelling and other stuff), because in order to keep myself from hating what was supposed to be a quick easy part 2, I had to amuse myself with snakes.
