The Locker Proble

1 4 9 16
1o 1o 1o 1o
2c 3c 2c
4o 9o 4o
8c
16o

In my group we figured out that the lockers that are going to be opened are the perfect squared numbers. The reason that is because every perfect squared has an odd amount of factors (See the example on the bottom if you don’t understand why they have an odd amount of factors). It's like a pattern opened, closed, opened, closed, etc. If there is a even amount of factors then its going to land on a closed, and if theirs a odd amount of factors it's going to land on a open. Like the example above those are perfect squared numbers, and the o and c stand for open and closed. As you could see all of them land on open. For example after 16 it's not going to be touch anymore because the 17th student would skip it, so that means it wouldn't be touched anymore, and then 18 would skip it to, and so on. At the end of this all we came out to 31 lockers being open because that it the last perfect squared number that doesn't equal more then 1,000. And if we if it was 32 squared then the sum would end up being more then 1,000

The number 16 has an odd amount of factors and 15 have an even amount. The factors for 16 are 1, 2, 4,8,16 and the factors for 15 are 1, 3,5,15. As you could see for 15 the factors each have a pair, 1x15 & 3x5. But if you look at 16s factors they don’t each have a pair. It’s 1x16, 2x8, but what about the 4. The four doesn’t have a pair. That is the reason why perfect squares have an odd amount of factors

T-Ray

"Where in the hell is that little girl?"
T-Ray said out of anger, not knowing what to do. Ha was so mad that he couldn't find her so he started throwing stuff around. Then he goes to Lily's room one more time and re-reads the note, he got even more mad and saw the jar by her window and throws it at the wall. starting out the window he started thinking to himself "What am I gonna do now?, her dumb ass probably left because what I said about her mom leaving her. She going to have to come back, she don't got nobody but me"

My Favorite Fictional Hero

My favorite fictional Hero is Batman.

The creators of batman are Bob Kane and Bill Finger. What's really interested me about batman is that he doesn't have any super powers. Every comic super hero has some kind of super power, and he doesn't. That's one of the reasons why he's one of my favorite fictional heroes. He basically showed that you could be what you want to be, that you don't need to have a super power to be a super hero, to go for your dreams. He had two side kicks which were Robin & Bat girl, but his main one was Robin. Batman's secret identity is Bruce Wayne. When Bruce Wayne was a child, he saw the murder of his parents. That's why he is a super hero now, that's why he helps save people & fights villains. He has a positive attitude on kids.

Batman got really popular in 1940 when he got his own comic book, and till this day he still his. The last movie that came out was The Dark Night and that was a really big hit, a lot of people went to go see that movie meaning that they are still fans of batman.

What does Math & Physics mean to you?

What does Math mean to yo?

To me math is about numbers. As you get older and you go to higher grades math gets more difficult. I remember math used to be lik
e 4+4=8, now its harder it has variables and more. Math is every where, sometimes your doing it and u don't even know. When your paying for something your doing math. To me math is one of my favorite subjects because its kind of a challenging but its also because it always been more interesting for me. Its interesting how all this stuff works, how you could do different problems and it would equal the same thing. Math is a big subject, one thing you do leads to another.

What does Physics mean to you?

I don't really know what physics is. Im looking forward to learning more about it. Right now all i know is that it's a type of science. I don't know what type or anything thats why i am looking forward to this class. Physics class is going to be a new experience for me so that going to be interesting. But yeah thats pretty much all i know.
