Team,
Today, we used MOEMS Feb 2023 to practice how to check our work. Congratulations to the team members that made a mistake and were able to correct it. I have attached the MOEMS competition and the solutions.
The link to the document that gave strategies for checking your work is:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xwynk2ct4xVuSjlWoq_BaVxFHD5zZtGooFOhiMSjxPA/edit?usp=sharing
That document also has additional strategies that we will go over in a future practice.
The bonus work is the AOPS 2024 Target round questions (attached). In competition, the target round is a series of 4 sub-rounds. You get 2 questions each sub-round and have 6 minutes to answer them. You can use a calculator.
As always, I encourage you to play around with the MathCounts Trainer to earn additional pieces of the key chain to put on your backpack. (8 students have earned them so far.) Just show me a screenshot of the trainer with your username and level to receive your prize.
You can find this and previous emails at OJHMathTeam.org
Take care,
Coach Ben
