For the quadratics project we started with general equations and graphing them then go t into the math behind them, after that we did a project on the things in our life that use quadratics, i did quadratics of fruit but never finished my final product. The purpose of it was to fin d things in our life that use quadratics. I did a banana. I thought doing the math behind it was easy but at sometimes it was difficult. I think i started out with some good ideas but never actualized finished them with doing work on other things.

Create a separate page on your DP for this project. On that page, document the process and deliverables for this project.
Your DP page must include the following four parts
Part 1: Overview An overview of the whole project (process we went through, starting with the Game of Pig) and what you were expected to learn. Your explanation of the learning goals should include an explanation of the following concepts in probability:
• Probability (definition)
Probability is the chance that something will happen like with a coin its a 50/50 chance
• Observed Probability
It is when you test something like a coin 50 or so times (doesn’t have to be 50) but then you observe the probability and then calculate it from there.
• Theoretical Probability
It is the calculated probability of something without knowing what happens. Like a dice each side is ⅙ chance of getting it
• Conditional Probability
It is when in order to get one outcome you have to get one first so in order to get a 2 on the second roll of the dice you have to roll something else first
• Probability of Multiple Events
It is when two things can happen at once like if someone's having a baby, what is the probability that they will have twins and they are boys?
•Expected Value
It is a probability that is added/combined with all the others t create one large probability
• Two-Way Tables
It is a table that shows all the totals for an observed probability
within other groups
• Tree Diagram
It is a diagram that shows the probability and how many times the thing has happened
• Joint Probability
It is the probability of something occuring at the same time as another
• Marginal Probability
Part 2: Your Renaissance-Inspired Game Give an overview of your game, its history, how to play it, and document what you prepared for Exhibition. Be sure to include all of the following:
• Background and history of the game (when was it originally invented?)
My game is called barbooth and it has a middle eastern origin and doesn't have a date that it was created.
• Who played it during the Renaissance? Where was it played: which countries? In homes?
People of jewish and greek ancestry played it
• Is there a modern version that is played today? Explain. e
Yeah it's pretty much the same thing as it was back then but it is very popular
• Why did you choose this game to exhibit?
I chose it because
• How is the game played?
There is one person who rolls the dice if they get 3-3 5-5 6-6 5-6, they win if they throw a 1-1 2-2 4-4 or 1-2 they lose, then they bet on if he wins or not.
• If you adapted the game, how?
I would make it so that if they don’t roll either then they have to pay the house
• How does chance/probability play a role in your game?
Rolling the dice makes it have a chance to get something or not.
Part 3
The probability of getting a double on a role is 1/36 and the probability of getting something other than a double would be 30/36
Reflection
I think that I deserve a 3.5/5 on this project because i think i did good but i could have done better. Also i got distracted a lot during this project so I couldn't get my work done efficiently but i did get most of it done on time and during the exhibition is did demo my guilds game during my time. The game my guild did was called the game of goose and the way you played was that you rolled some die and then moved your piece across the game board, but there are some tiles that will either send you back or give you something good. but if you role a 9 on the first role then you win automatically.

I chose to Measure my pet pig because i thought it would be interesting to measure him since he is a runt and a little smaller than normal pigs. Me and my Friend just measured him based on the width heigth and length of the pig. We couldn't measure the pig to get exact measurements so we rounded some of it to make it a little easier on the measuring part. We also guesstimated the bottom of his feet because it was really hard to find him lying down generally. We also just made the pig into different cylinders and like his body, feet, snout, and head.
Math Part
Finding the volume for the legs.
Vcylinder = πr2 * h
= π12 * 7 ½
= 23.5619449 in3
(Multiplied by four)
Vlegs = 94.24777961 in3
Vsphere = 4/3 πr3
= 4/3 π 3.53
Vlegs = 179.59438 in3
Aelipse = πab
= π (1.25*3)
= 11.78097245 in3
Multiplied by height (5):
Vsnout = 58.90486225 in3
Aelipse = πab
= π x 7¼ x 6
= 136.659280431
Multiplied by height (30 inches) =
Vbody = 4099.77841293 in3
Legs 94. 248
Head 179. 594
Snout 58. 904
+ Body 4,099. 778

Reflection
I wouldn't do anything differently because overall i had fun doing this project and think we chose the right thing to measure. A challenge we faced was measuring the pig because he is a 100~ pound pig moving in a confined space so it was a little hard to get exact measurements. We used Starting small because we tried to take apart the pig in different ways (not literally) then we would measure the different parts. We also used Generalizing. I would do this project again, it definitely allowed us to be creative with what we chose to do for the project.
