Question

What does 8th grade math covered? I want to learn about it earlier, so I can become pro in math when I get to 8th grade. :)

Answer 1

largely depends on the school
elementary algebra maybe?

Answer 2

Banach Spaces

Answer 3

your best bet is to make sure you have a very good foundation in arithmetic, and elementary algebra
you don't want to be spending time trying to figure out what \(\frac{2}{5}-\frac{3}{4}\) is

Answer 4

I learned that. o_O I learned a lot of things. Right now, I'm learning binomial.

Answer 5

8th grade math usually covers :

Rational Numbers
Linear equations in one Variable
Understanding quadrilaterals
Practical geometry
Data Handling
Squares and square roots
Cubes and cube roots
comparing quantities
Visualizing in solid shapes
Algebraic expressions
Mensuration
Exponents and Powers
Direct and Inverse proportion
Factorization
Introduction to graphs
Playing with numbers

Answer 6

Interesting. I already know more than half of it. :O

Answer 7

Good! That was of CBSE Board - India .

Check this : ICSE Board - India :

Answer 8

Interesting website. You all deserve medal, but I'm going to give it to mathslover (He doesn't have a medal, yet. :O)

Answer 9

are you taking algebra

Answer 10

Yeah. I'm up to Binomial.

Answer 11

Well, I don't kow the difference between pre-algebra and algebra.

Answer 12

Thanks for the medal. Best of luck, start learning in advanced. That will help you a lot.

Answer 13

well in 8th grade u can take algebra or regular math i took algebra

Answer 14

Pre-algebra essentially introduces the concept of the single variable, where one part of a binary operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division) is replaced by a box. The box, in algebra, is replaced by a letter such as x or y, to denote a variable, or a, b, or c to denote constants. For example: X + 5 = 9

Pre-algebra also incorporates fractions, decimals, conversions between them, and the standard mathematical operations. In short, everything you need to build upon the concepts for algebra.

Algebra begins with single variable equations and builds up to systems of equations with multiple variables, quadratic equations, polynomials (equations of degree n), real and irrational numbers, the cartesian coordinate system, and on up to matrix operations involving multiple dimensions. I believe algebra pretty much stops short of Hilbert space, which has an infinite number of dimensions.

ax + by = c is a typical line equation from algebra which, in slope intercept form, is:
y = mx + b. b = the y-intercept, and m=∆y/∆x or (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

ax2 + bx + c = d is a typical quadratic equation.

Polynomials would be of the form axn + bx(n-1) + ... + z = 0.

Factoring polynomials is another important concept from algebra. If you can do long division by hand you have some of the key concepts for factoring already.

Perhaps the most useful concept from algebra is ratios and proportions.

Answer 15

i hated proportions but algebra is really easy if you catch on quick i got a 98 on the regents
