Unit on deriving the distance formula from Pythagorean Theorem
Students will understand what effects the coefficients a, b, and c have on the graph of a standard quadratic equation of the form y=ax^2 +bx+c.
Guided notes and practice on graphing quadratics by their solutions.
In this task, students reinforce knowledge of types of graphs.
Students drop and catch a yardstick to determine if there is significant evidence (via a matched pairs randomization test) that people are faster with their dominant than their non- dominant hand.
Guided notes and practice exercises on setting up system of equations from word problems.
The purpose of the task is to show that graphs can tell a story about the variables that are involved. Together with tables of values, they can paint a complete picture of a situation. These tasks all describe situations for which the given quantity is decreasing.
Students analyze univariate and bivariate data.
In this Khan Academy activity, students will write the equations of parallel and perpendicular lines.
This video shows how to write an exponential function whose initial value is -2 and common ratio is 1/7.
Writing a linear function of the form f(x)=mx+b and an exponential function of the form g(x)=ar^x, given the graphs of those functions.
Writing a linear function of the form f(x)=mx+b and an exponential function of the form g(x)=ar^x, given a table of values of those functions.
Students write the equation of a linear function given its graph.
Comprehensive worksheet with answer key where students are to write a linear equation representing the situation.
In this Khan Academy activity, students will write a linear function from a word problem.
After this lesson, you will be able to:
Given the vertex of parabola, find an equation of a quadratic function
Given three points of a quadratic function, find the equation that defines the function
This video solves a word problem about scores in a chess tournament by creating a two-variable linear inequality.
Students are introduced to modeling linear data through an investigation of comparing grams of fat and calories in fast food hamburgers.
The zero product property states that if ab=0 then either a or b equal zero. This basic property helps us solve equations like (x+2)(x-5)=0.
Quick assessment looking at a problem and evaluating what was done correctly and incorrectly.
