Astoria is a neighborhood and borough in Queens, New York City, and is located on Long Island. The community was first settled in 1659, and large residences began being constructed in the city in the early 19th century. The neighborhood is named after John Jacob Astor, who was at one time the wealthiest man in America. Astoria was incorporated into Long Island City in 1870, but it was reincorporated into New York City in 1898.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

The student and I worked on graphing exponential equations. We went over her homework where she needed to determine domain and range and then sketch the graph of an exponential function. In the process of going over the problems we discussed what domain and range mean. I also reviewed instances where domain would not be negative infinity to infinity. The student had some trouble setting up her tables for values of x and y. This was due to confusing the order of operations or PEMDAS. Once we discussed the order of operations she was able to do the problems well. The student had a question about exponential growth and decay. We worked on the question by plugging in values. Then we discussed the rules for determining growth and decay. We also discussed asymptotes, which she has not yet covered in school. Finally, I went over how using domain, range, asymptotes, and the properties of growth and decay can help you check your work to make sure it is reasonable. She had a quiz yesterday and hasn't received it back but felt that it went well.
