I use to ask my history teacher the same thing, When am I ever going to need to know any of this stuff in real life? I hated history, and now I love watching the history channel, go figure! I was always a math junky, but Geometry was always my favorite.Ann Marie @ 16 Muddy Feethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18043510561974011878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3696148984760771156.post-11966188334368344232012-08-31T21:25:23.250-05:002012-08-31T21:25:23.250-05:00I hear ya....missed sewing and blogging all week m...I hear ya....missed sewing and blogging all week myself!

[2(a + b) + f ] / 5 =G . Letter a is first quarter grade, b is second quarter grade, f is final exam, and G is the final grade. So there is one example of how Algebra is used in real life.
