Transformation Investigation
Graph it! Investigate transformations with a graphing calculator. Pupils graph sets of linear functions on the same set of axes. They determine how changes in the equation of a linear function result in changes in the graph.
Balanced Assessment
Alcohol Level
How long does it take alcohol to leave your system? Individuals explore this question by examining a polynomial function. They draw conclusions by analyzing the key features of the given polynomial function.
