Susie is organizing the printing of tickets for a show. She has collected prices from several printers. Your task is to use a table and algebra to advise Susie on how to choose the best printer.
Students must design a cylindrical drink can that uses the least aluminum for a given volume of drink. (This task is very similar to Funsize Cans, but with less step-by-step guidance.)
In this task, you must design a cylindrical drink can that uses the least aluminum for a given volume of drink.
Students will find the volumes of different shaped drinking glasses.
Students must determine how much water might a dripping faucet waste in a year. This task asks students to select and apply mathematical content from across the grades, including the content standards.
Stuents must use math to decide whether a lottery idea will make money.
This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to: Calculate the mean, median, mode, and range from a frequency chart; and to use a frequency chart to describe a possible data set, given information on the mean, median, mode, and range.
Students will use probability to find a good strategy for winning a memory game.
Susie is organizing the printing of tickets for a show. She has collected prices from several printers. Your task is to use graphs and algebra to advise Susie on how to choose the best printer.
Students must work out how much you need to change the radius of a propane gas tank in order to double its capacity.
Students will work on an activity and asked to decide which of several objects do they think will roll the largest circle and why? In the main lesson they will work to produce a mathematical solution to Modeling Rolling Cups.
This lesson is intended to help you assess how well students are able to: ? Form and solve linear equations involving factorizing and using the distributive law. In particular, this unit aims to help you identify and assist students who have difficulties in: ? Using variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem. ? Solving word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r.
Students are given four points on a graph, and must prove that they are the corners of a square.
Students must calculate how much yogurt is produced by a machine at a food company. This task asks students to select and apply mathematical content from across the grades, including the content standards.
