Students identify and interpret how absolute value affects linear functions. They also graph linear functions and reflect them in a line of symmetry. Finally, students evaluate the absolute value of a constant using technology to...

Eleventh graders work in groups and investigate how force determines the speed and distance then they view the video, "Math Vantage #7: What's Your Angle?." They are given a real life problem to solve using speed, ramps, angle, incline...

Meet the Function Family! Each member of the family has examples of their graphs and descriptions of the types of real-world situation that produce those graphs.

Young scholars will explpre models and understand the difference between quadratic, exponential, and linear models in this lesson plan.

This tutorial shows you how to enter a set of data and find the line of best fit.

The student is given actual data and asked to find a line of best fit and to give "real world" interpretations of the slope and y-intercept. A great introduction to the 83/84 and its features.

Students can use traffic tickets to demonstrate their understanding of writing linear functions.

In this lesson concept we use the Activity Center to build some basics in students understanding of linear functions. The linear relationship is clearly one of the big ideas of the algebra curriculum, and it paves the way for a deeper...

In this activity, students create a situation that produces linear behavior by stepping heel to toe and taking distance readings as each step is taken. Students then apply the properties of a linear function to develop a model for motion.

Students will determine if a quadratic formula is factorable, then they will factor the equation, set each factor equal to 0, and solve for x.

This is a writing activity perfect for a math class, it's designed to help students see the differences between linear (arithmetic, adding) and exponential (geometric, multiplying) growth. Students explore the ideas of linear and...

This task asks students to analyze a set of data about the height of a basketball for each time it bounces. They choose a model that reasonably fits the data and use the model to answer questions about the physical context. This variant...

This task asks students to analyze a set of data about the height of a basketball for each time it bounces. They choose a model that reasonably fits the data and use the model to answer questions about the physical context. This second...

For this task, students analyze the sizes of a country's population and of its food supply to determine when and if food shortages will occur. To solve it, they must construct and compare linear and exponential functions and find where...

In this task, learners are asked to identify whether changes are linear or exponential. Aligns with F-LE.A.1.

Given a description of a real-world relationship, determine whether that relationship is linear or exponential. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Given a table with values of two quantities over time, determine whether the quantities grow linearly or exponentially. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive...

Solve word problems about real-world relationships that are given in graphs. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this lesson students learn how to analyze linear graphs to solve problems. Students watch a video tutorial, explore guided notes and attempt practice problems.
