School was out on Monday. Warm up was a design problem related to meeting a minimum volume for a prism with space-limited base dimensions. Went over homework, then looked at the ticket task, which involved volume or area and problem solving skills. Some classes also started, but did not finish, the "golden idol" task related to Indiana Jones, dealing with modeling an object with a shape, density, unit conversion, and more. To be continued.

volume of composite figure: cylinder and hemisphere: link
volume, liquids, cost/profit/revenue (exact problem from #6 worked out by me :)) link
Warm up was a design problem related to coming up with dimensions of a box to fit a certain number of given cones. Completed the golden idol task by modeling an object using a shape and then using density and unit conversion to find mass. Went over the practice assessment in detail. The assessment on using volume and density has been delayed to Monday.
