For Linear Function Word Problems, I'm giving you THREE DAYS TO DO THIS ASSIGNMENT. It's not that hard once you get the hang of it but I want you to take your time and really get this. So watch the videos on Friday, watch my video on Monday. Watch it twice if you need to. Then do the problem set on Tuesday. Or do it all in one day.  What do I care. LOL. I will be checking on Monday to see that you watched the Khan videos. I will be checking on Wednesday that you did the problem set. If you need help, come to my Zoom on Tuesday at 1pm and we can do the problems together.

Video Time! You will need to watch and learn these videos to do next Monday's assignment
