The function that I used most was a quadratic function and is the only one I used. I made hair for it and a mustache. The one thing I found most challenging thing was stopping the hair at a certain point. For me it took me a while to get it to the spot I wanted it to be at. I found this project very fun and helped me remember that function again.

Each graph would simulate the amount of force it take to pull the flag up to the stop of the flag pole. The graph that shows tmost realistic situation would be graph A because your going at a consistent pace throughout a period of time. The most unrealistic is graph F because its saying that your not taking anytime to put the flag up.

My predictions followed it ok but could have been better it followed the pattern of the graph but didnt really match to the points of it.
The zeros on the graph represent the starting point and ending point were the skateboard is at rest. The minimum and maximum of each graph differs, in that the large the ramp the higher the maximum point and the faster it get there.

I think that the ball is going to go into the basketball hope because the line follows the trajectory of the ball right into the hoop.
Even and Odd functions Blog Post
What I learned from this activity is an even function has symmetry over the y axis, and a odd function is symmetric about the origin. They are similar in that they both pass the vertical line test, they both have asymtop, and they both rotate in some way across the x or y axis. You check and see if its a even or odd function by plugging in a -x into the function. Functions that are always even are quadratic, absolute, and cosine functions. Always odd functions include cubic functions, sin functions. I don't have any questions but I think I really need to work on figuring out whether its a odd or even function becuase that kinda hard for me to understand right now.
Folding to the Moon
It is unrealistic for the stack of paper to reach the moon because the piece of paper gets to a certain point to were it is unable to be folded any more.
