on Scale Drawings...
General,
this time they are saying they won't give you your middle
school diploma if you don't know how to read maps and number
lines. Easy stuff, don't fret it. Say you have a problem that
says: 5+-6. Using a this numberline, solve the problem.
-6__-5__-4__-3__-2__-1__0__1__2__3__4__5
If you
ended up on -1, good job. You can always find out which side
on the number line your answer is going to be by comparing
the numbers. The greater numbers sign is the side you'll be
on. Using the same exact number line , try this -6+4. If you
ended up on -2 you've got this down.
Maps.
Again, easy. When using maps you have to pay very close attention
to key, usually a small subset that gives you the scale of
the map, along with other things depending on the type of
map. Look at this map:
Now, how
far is it, according to the scale, from Chinatown to Callahan?
St. Marks to Fort Staunton? If you answered 45 mi for the
first and 20 mi for the second, good job. Now try Fort Staunton
to Portland View . 50 mi would be correct . IF you got every
thing right i'd say your ready for the activity.
