                             Gir, Little Pie and Big Boom’s Adventure
                                                                                                            By  Emmy Belloni                                                   

One day the worms, who were bored of their tiny little bucket, decided to escape. Gir, Little Pie and Big Boom, the worms whom which I  speak of wanted an adventure. The worms who lived with them had been multiplying exponentially! Gir  was the one who first had the idea, and LP ( Little Pie) and BB ( Big Boom) quickly agreed, they would be great coefficients. BB  and LP were in charge of packing food and water. BB gather as much food as possible, from the supplies they had. LP  waited at the top of the soil and put water in the scrap of lettuce leaf she was using as a cup. Gir was busy looking at the map of the land when she suddenly decided “ We have to expand our awesomeness and get superscript powers!” then she sighed” How are we going to get those?”
Then she looked again at the map. “look!” she yelled “ A magical magazine called Muse!!!!!! We can get our Powers there and go on!”

                       Once the worms got their powers they moved on. Gir’s power was magic,  LP’s was flying and BB’s was exploding things (BB and Gir’s powers weren’t accually Superscript powers, they were subscript powers because they never left the ground). LP was flying above BB and Gir as the set of on their adventure talking happily about their newfound powers.  “I’m glad we aren’t in the worm bucket anymore,” said the happy LP who was hovering above a raspberry bush licking her lips and picking a tiny raspberry which she brought down and shared  with the other two.  BB then began to lead the adventurers on their quest.  Suddenly Gir gasped “ oh no ! We’ve reached the base of a mountain!” LP began to panic “ I can’t carry both of you!” “ Don’t worry” said BB ” I will Explode the mountain!” Gir yelled “take cover!” and the worms dodged into  the safety of an old worm burrow. The mountain exploded  hugely and left nothing, not even a crater to suggest it had ever been there.


               After  blowing up the mountain the worms moved on. They sailed down rivers, crossed canyons and, yes, blew up more mountains( which happened constantly). Then when the worms reached the miraculous giant mountain  known as ‘Woods Hall’ they met a strange worm. This worm spoke to them  about joining The AWWSP, Awesome Worms With Superscript  Powers.  Then the worms  looked at the new worm and together said “ Of course we want to join the AWWSP!” yelled Gir, LP and BB at once. “ Great “said the worm, “ come with me”  Then , as they began the journey to the AWWSP HQ the worms all thought” I hope this place  isn’t as populated by worms as the Bucket!”  The HQ was a wonderful place and the three worms felt like they were at home. “ At least they aren’t going to evaluate us!” said BB. “ But you will have to go to superscript power and subscript power school” said the new worm. “Awww,” said BB, LP and Gir. “But only for a term,” replied the new worm, “my name’s X by the way, Because I’m a variable, I can change what I look like and mean.” and X turned herself rainbow right in front of their eyes.

Math Jokes! These are all from a great site that Mrs. Reulbach emailed me a link to. I hope you enjoy! 

 

Q: What do you get if you divide the cirucmference of a jack-o-lantern by its diameter? 
A: Pumpkin Pi!

 

A math professor, a native Arizonian, was asked by one of his students: "What is mathematics good for?" 
He replied: "This question makes me sick! If you show someone the Grand Canyon for the first time, and he asks you `What's it good for?' What would you do? Well, you kick that guy off the cliff!"

 

Math problems? Call 1-800-[(10x)(13i)2]-[sin(xy)/2.362x]. ( if your phone has all that on its dials, for some reason, I highly doubt it...)

 

If you ever need to locate a mathematician fast... just say this in a large group of people and those who laugh will be mathematicians...

"Let epsilon be less than zero..."

 

 

A mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer are asked to test the following hypothesis: All odd numbers greater than one are prime. 
The mathematician: "Three is a prime, five is a prime, seven is a prime, but nine is not a prime. Therefore, the hypothesis is false." 
The physicist: "Three is a prime, five is a prime, seven is a prime, nine is not a prime, eleven is a prime, and thirteen is a prime. Hence, five out of six experiments support the hypothesis. It must be true." 
The engineer: "Three is a prime, five's a prime, seven's a prime, nine's a prime..."

 

 

Q: What does the zero say to the the eight? 
A: Nice belt!

  8<------ see! A belt!     0<------ No belt!!!

 

I did not make this up, it was made by the incredibly amazing Muse magazine, which is incredibly amazing. Thank you Muse, for being so amazing.

Number Party: A Play in One Very Short Act

(SCENE:A large room filled with numbers)

 

1: Wow, I love parties.Hey, there's 97!( wave down 97) What a big number you are-- and still looking good.

97: I'm prime, baby. Not many this close to 100 can still say that. But you--hey,you're number one.

1: Yeah, I know.

-1: We're all doomed.

2: Whoa,buddy.Why so nega--oh( suddenly notices -1 is a negative number) Well... this is awkward.

( enter 3 and 17. They are wearing blaringly colorful capes and super tall hats)

3:(in a bad Australian accent) 'Allo mates!

17: (Posing like a flamingo) I so love cheese.

-1: Shoo-wee. You guys are a little bit--odd, aren't you.

4: Now, now.

6: Everything's fine.

8: Try to stay EVEN-tempered.

144: Ahhhhhh-CHOO!!! ( sneezes a big sloppy one without covering his mouth)

-1: Eww! Gross!

144:Yes?

-1: Huh?

144: Oh, we haven't met. Hi, I'm a gross.

4: Is it time for pie? Let's have pie!

3.14159265358979.....: What?!? Are you crazy?!?

-1:Oh, don't be so irrational.

3.14159265358979.....:But I AM irrational!

8: Heyyyyyyyyyyy,chillax, you two.

( off in a corner of a room)

5-2i:I want to be here, and yet I don't. I feel I am meant to sense our destinies.

0: Whoa, you're complex.

5-2i: Yeah.

(Enter ||)

1: Hi there, you must be eleven?

||: Uh, no. I'm two tally marks actually.

1: Oh.Er. Sorry.

100(shouting) Can I have everybody's attention! We're going to have some cake now!

3.14159265358979.....: WHEW!

100: I just need everyone to line up from smallest to biggest.

0: Whooohooooo

101oo: Aww,MAN.

17: Garbonzo! Alopecia!

( Enter #)

#: Hey everybody! I got lost and ended up at a party little known symbols. You wouldn't believe what a crazy crowd THAT was!

Car Project!!

 

Dream Car:

 Its a Jaguar 2013 Supersport. It costs $112,600.

The TOTAL price is 135,641.56.

The monthly payments are 2,825.87.

THAT IS AN EXPENSIVE CAR!

 

This is my Realistic car.Its a Nisan Versa Sedan.It costs 11,990.

The TOTAL price is 15,251.10.

The monthly payment is 317.73.

 

And........ HOW I SPEND MY TIME!

 

Scatter Plot: Hand Length vs Foot Length 

 

It is a Positive Correlation~

 

This is my pie chart that I made for our test:


 

Big Question: How much growth/decline happens from start to end of century in Australia and Japan? How do they compare from one century to the next? How do they compare to each other?

 

Hypothesis: I believe that Japan’s population will increase more than Australia’s per century, and that the numbers will get bigger the more recent the data.

 

Findings:

 

I found the information I did using a calculator and the graph on Gapminder linked to and screenshotted below. It was hard at first to find the numbers on Gapminder, because I had to unselect Japan or Australia, let the graph play to the year I wanted, then reselect it to see the number I needed again. After doing this I used the calculator to find out how much the population had grown(or shrunk, in the case of Australia there) and recorded them in the incredibly beautiful chart below.

Or, If you’re too lazy to click on the link, here’s a screenie for your convenience.

 

Conclusions:

 

After gathering the data I needed to answer my big question, I have found that I was right when I hypothesized that “Japan’s population will increase more than Australia’s per century, and that the numbers will get bigger the more recent the data.” I think that it is very interesting that both the countries add more people each year, and that they both have a very large change between, in Australia’s example from +3,389,986 to +15,423,351, as well as in Japan’s +13,808,622 to +81,617,310. Answering my big question also made me think of even more questions, the main one being, “ Why is Australia 1700-1800 the only time where there is a negative increase?” I have learned a lot from gathering the data from these two countries, and can’t wait for another project like this one.

Definitions!

Term- A mathematical phrase that consists of a number or variable. 6x-7

Variable-A variable is a letter that represents any number and can change. 6x-7

Constant-  A number that stays the same and is its own term. 6x-7

Coefficient- The number multiplied by and in the same term as  a variable 6x-7

Algebraic Expression- An equation where there is a variable, coefficient, and.constant. 6x-7

 

Purple is a coefficient. Green is a variable. Cyan is a constant.

3x- 9x+8

 

To simplify an algebraic expression, you must combine like terms. You can add/ subtract two terms that are made up of a variable and coefficient, but not one variable and coefficient and a constant.

Original expression:3x-9x+3-1

 

Simplified: -6x+2

 

Are Paradoxes math? I'm putting some here anyways.

WARNING: Paradoxes ahead. These may or may not make your brain hurt very badly or make you stuck thinking about them for hours doing nothing else.

1-This sentence is false.

 

2-Person:"You can ask me one yes or no question. If the answer is yes, I will throw a pie in your face. If the answer is no, I will give you an incredibly hard math problem to solve. Ask away."

 

Me: " Will you give me an incredibly hard math problem to solve?" 

 

3-Of course, if you say that you are being sarcastic sarcastically…
