Top 3 jobs I decided to pick were professional athletes, lawyer, judge.
Professional athletes:
As I noticed I looked for finding jobs for my future. I found out that professional athletes get payed good and very well. For each game professional athletes play, like boxers, baseball players, football players, and basketball players can earn millions for each game. Professional athletes play in front of an audience and get paid for it. Professional athlete still get paid even thought they get an injury or something else like that.
Pilot:
Before pilots take off they plan their flights very carefully. Flying does not involve much hard physical work. Pilots can feel a lot of stress because they know that they are responsible for the safety of their passengers.
Lawyer:
Lawyers need a license from the State in which they want to work. To get a license, people need to get a college degree and then go to law school for 3 years. Even after they start working, lawyers need to keep on learning about changes in the law.

Why do I have to think about a career now?
Christian Nunez
I have to think about my career starting this grade because I have to think about what I'm going to do in the future and what I'm going to be. I'm thinking about career right now because sooner or later I'll be in college already, is around the corner. It is important because if you don't work on your career by now you will be in the streets picking up cans. I think this project is going to help me because is helping us to do pick things about our careers. Since I started working on this future I started thinking how does it feels like having a good future instead of a bad future.

Proportion
4/3/09
Aim: How do we solve proportions by using cross products?
The term cross product can help you remember how to solve a proportion, by dividing the product by the number.
Example:
2 x
___ = ___ ; 2x = 36; x =18.
3 12
He did this problem wrong because if you cross multiply you're going to get 3x= 24. If you subtract 3 from 24 you're going to have 21. So he put x= 18, but it was x= 7. I know x=7 also because 21÷3 is 7.
Problem:
6 2
___= ___
45 15

6 2
___= ___
45 15
15 • 6= 90 , 45 • 2= 90 So it's 90 = 90 This problem is Proportional.

Name: Christian Nunez
T-mobile charges $34.99 a month for phone service. They also charge $0.48 per minute for long distance calls. If Joshua's bill was $64.75, how many minutes of long distance calls did she make?
Part A - Write an equation that can be used to solve the problem.
Equation: $34.99+0.48x= 64.75
Part B - Solve your equation and answer the question in a complete

How do we evaluate expressions?
3/13/09
MATH
Today in math class I learned how to evaluate expressions.
A variable is when a letter represents a number that can vary.
A constant is a number that cannot change.
The difference between a variable and a constant is that a variable can change and a constant cannot.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Expressions
12x = 12•x 4/y = 4÷y 3xy/2 = 3xy÷2

Aim: How do we use spreadsheet to create graphs?
Date: 2/2/09
If you are doing graphs on lose leaf , now you don't have to do it on lose leaf. Now if you have a laptop you can tell your teacher to use "Microsoft Excel". In Microsoft Excel you can do circle graphs , bar graphs, line graphs, and others. First click on the Microsoft Excel then save it as anything you want. When you get there you can do anything. For Example, do your bar graph then highlight it. Click on view, then Toolbars. After clicking on toolbars press Standard, Formatting, then Chart. There they will show you your graph and you can look at it lots of different kind of ways. Microsoft Excel helped me learn a lot of things about graphs, circle graph, and more. You can even put different colors to your graphs. I made a circle graph and a bar graph when I first used Microsoft Excel. The first day you use Microsoft Excel you can learn lots of math.
