SP #6: Unit K Concept 10
Although these types of problems seem the easiest, they can become the trickiest of all due to the fact that there are several phases of which you can make silly mistakes. It is important to pay attention when it comes to knowing how many zeros go after the decimal and also when it comes to the dividing since they are fractions. You have to remember to multiply by the reciprocal and then another important part is making sure whether there is a number in front of the decimal like in this case. Remember to add it in the end and do not just forget like I almost did.

Fibonacci Beauty Ratio (Extra Credit)
Name: Leslie N.
Foot to navel: 97 cm Navel to top of head: 63 cm Average: 1.577
Navel to chin: 45 cm Chin to top of head: 21 cm
Knee to navel: 48.5 cm Foot to knee: 46 cm
Name: Rodolfo R.
Foot to navel: 103 cm Navel to top of head: 68 cm Average: 1.547
Navel to chin: 46.5 cm Chin to top of head: 22 cm
Knee to navel: 54 cm Foot to knee: 53 cm
Name: Michael C.
Foot to navel: 110 cm Navel to top of head: 66 cm Average: 1.84
Navel to chin: 46.5 cm Chin to top of head: 18 cm
Knee to navel: 65 cm Foot to knee: 51 cm
Name: Omar T.
Foot to navel: 113.5 cm Navel to top of head: 67 cm Average: 1.687
Navel to chin: 50 cm Chin to top of head: 22 cm
Knee to navel: 62 cm Foot to knee: 56.5 cm
Name: Leslie E.
Foot no navel: 107 cm Navel to top of head: 58.5 cm Average: 1.81
Navel to chin: 43 cm Chin to top of head: 17 cm
Knee to navel: 53 cm Foot to knee: 49 cm
Throughout this activity, the goal was to see who was the most mathematically beautiful by taking some measurements and then finding the average. In the end, who ever was the closet to 1.618 or anyone who actually hit that decimal was the most beautiful. As I measured and then found the average I realized that the closest one was Leslie N. I think so she was the closest to being the "most beautiful".
I believe that the Fibonacci Beauty Ratio is not anything that should be considered when it comes to beauty. It seems rather stupid to me and just is not reasonable, everyone is beautiful in their own ways and this can just bring some people down. I do not think that people would use this method in order to see if a person was beautiful or not.

SP #5 Unit J Concept 6
SP #5 (:
While solving this problem, it is similar to the other and you have to be cautious when it comes to the foiling and the distributing as well. Also, do not forget to get rid of the x's when towards the end because if not you will not be able to continue solving. Be sure to solve properly and then use RREF to solve fully. Plug in the numbers correctly and make sure to know how to use the different buttons and the next steps.

SP #4: Unit J Concept 5
SP #4 :)
When solving this equation it is important to be careful when foiling and distributing properly while searching for the common denominator. Also, since there are several steps to the problem you should just be aware of what you are doing and the steps that come next. When combining like terms it can get confusing so it is best to do it all out in paper and carefully. Lastly, know how to use the calculator and be sure to plug in the numbers correctly.

SV #5 Unit J Concepts 3-4
What does the viewer need to pay special attention to in order to understand?
The viewer has to be very cautious when it comes to making sure they place the numbers correctly and also when it comes to multiplying, adding, and subtracting correctly. The reason is because that is when many times silly mistakes are made. Another thing is that you should write down every step made because if you make a mistake it will be easier to find it when looking back at what it is you had done so far. Make sure to highlight or just be aware of what it is you are trying to achieve, for example make sure you are looking for the correct zero and placing it where it belongs. You basically have to be aware of every move you do andmake sure you are doing it properly.
