Your young boaters will enjoy writing and solving inequalities, and representing the solution graphically in this task set in the context of renting a boat.

The behavior of a rational function near a vertical asymptote is the focus around this trip up a river. Specifically, numerical and graphical understanding is studied. The canoe context pushes the variables as numbers, rather than as...

Explore the properties of parabolas in this instructional activity. Construct a parabola given a focus and a directrix on the Ti-Nspire. Write equations of parabolas in vertex form and determine the a value of a parabola given a focus...

High schoolers determine the linear equations of the density of water and oil by collecting data on the mass of various volumes of each liquid. They construct scatter plots from the data and use these to write the linear equations for...

Students make equations from everyday data. They create a graph from the equations. Students predict and analyze the results. Students complete the second scenario on their own and turn in their handout.

Determining the number of solutions is an important stepping stone to higher math. In this case, the resource asks algebra pupils to find a second linear equation for a certain solution of a system. When one is asked for a linear...

Learners factor trinomials correctly. In this algebra lesson, students review the rules for factoring trinomials. They factor different polynomials as they relate the same concept and idea to facoring trinomials.

Students investigate the properties behind the quadratic equation. In this algebra lesson, students identify quadratic equation in the real world. They graph the parabola and identify the vertex and intercepts.

Solve systems of equation problems using four different methods: elimination by addition or subtraction, graphing, elimination by multiplication, and substitution. Middle schoolers are then given a series of "missions" to complete.

Practice factoring numbers by using graph paper, manipulatives and computer applets.

Eighth graders explain the relationship between the position of the sun, a city's latitude and shadow length. Ratio's, geometry, and algebra are used to determine the shadow lengths and building heights. A sun angle (altitude) charts to...

Seventh graders use toothpicks to investigate a series of designs and identify patterns. Data is organized and analyzed using tables and graphs, and students make generalizations using algebraic expressions.

In this Squeeze Theorem worksheet, students compute limits, identify a graph that represents the Squeeze Theorem, and graph given functions. This two-page worksheet contains seven multi-step problems.

In this points of discontinuity worksheet, students observe graphs and label them as points of discontinuity and non-differentiability. They identify the derivatives of functions. This one-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.

Here is a resource that helps your algebra learners understand the connection between the graph of two lines, the equations of lines, and the solutions and intersecting points of lines. It would make a great assessment question, but can...

Practice solving linear equations by graphing. Scholars learn to solve multi-step linear equations in one variable by graphing both sides of the equation separately. They use graphing calculators to find the intersection of the graphs.

Students explore some different concepts in relation to using a number line for instruction. Given some number values, they graph the position on the number line. The lesson ends with them playing Bingo.

Students define functions to be graphed using the Y= key and how to set up a standard viewing screen using Zoom 6. They complete a lab sheet for each of the three problems attached, completing the assignment outside of class.

For this algebra worksheet, students look at 4 sets of relations and determine if they are functions. Students are provided with the graphs of three functions and determine the function value. Two relations are graphed on the coordinate...

Fourth graders find the range, mode, median, and mean for each of the data sets (height and shoe size). They discuss which measure of central tendency for each data set best represents the class and why. Students graph the shoe size and...

This comprehensive lesson plan reviews solving and graphing quadratic functions and functions of higher degree.  Using the vertex form of a quadratic functions, one finds the vertex, minimum or maximum, and axis of symmetry. A few...

The intent of this resource is to show algebra learners that there is a proportional relationship between two lines that have an intersecting point. As the coordinate x increases by a constant, the y coordinate also increases.  It...

Seventh graders investigate a series of triangles, looking for patterns and generalizing what they have found. They analyze the pattern data and organize it into a table and graph. Students identify the relationship and discover the rule...

In this algebra worksheet, students graph inequalities on number lines. Two problems are written in interval notation. The other five problems require students to graph and then write in interval notation.
