In this linear regression worksheet, students solve fourteen Math Regent Exam questions regarding scatter plots and linear regression.  The solutions are provided.

What effect does changing a parameter have on the graph of a trigonometric function? Pupils use a Desmos applet to explore the general sine graph. They experiment changing different parameters and record the resulting change of the...

Help plan a road trip with linear equations. Scholars consider two different rental car companies and write equations representing the cost for each company. They graph the system of equations to determine the conditions under which each...

Advanced economics pupils analyze a series of graphs, data sets, and profit scenarios all related to monopolies and marginal revenue. They read through the background information, complete a graph using the data provided, and justify...

Did you know that leaky faucets waste $10 million worth of water? Conservationists perform an experiment and draw best-fit lines to explore how the US Geological Society determined this value.

A cross-curricular resource that takes the electoral votes and allows your learners to organize and analyze the data. Young voters can determine which states are more influential and interpret the dotplot provided for more data....

What an impressive task it is to make dental impressions! Pupils learn how dentists use proportional reasoning, unit conversions, and systems of equations to estimate the materials needed to make stone models of dental impressions....

Here is a resource with a descriptive approach to explaining the scientific method. It's simple, but effective for both introduction and reinforcement of this concept. 

Agriculture is truly a math-based profession! Help the dairy farmer determine the supplies needed to complete his barn. Using given dimensions, learners build equations and use units to determine the correct amount of materials.

Tune in for savings! Scholars investigate pricing schemes for two different online music download sites. After comparing the two, they determine the numbers of songs for which each site would be cheaper.

In this route learning exercise, learners observe a chart of Santa's route and answer word problems about the distance he travels between cities. They complete six problems.

Food companies understand how to use math to their advantage. Learners explore the math related to the packaging and serving size of yogurt. They then use unit analysis and percent values to make decisions on the product development.

Who knew running a greenhouse required so much math? Amaze future mathematicians and farmers with the amount of unit conversions, ratio and proportional reasoning, and geometric applications involved by having them complete the...

In this rate of chemical reactions worksheet, learners experiment with different concentrations and volumes of hydrochloric acid mixed with magnesium to explore the rate of chemical reactions. They measure the rates of the reactions and...

In this graphing functions instructional activity, students write functions in logarithmic and exponential forms.  They evaluate logarithms and determine the inverse of a function.  Students graph functions.  This six-page...

In this experimental design worksheet, students use a cup and coins to determine the distance they can blow a cup with varying amounts of coins. They analyze their results and design an experiment using the same materials.

In this word search learning exercise, students find the words in the word search and then circle them. There are 16 words in the word bank for students to locate. They then try to find any other words that they can. The answers are on...

In this exploring how to collect and organize data worksheet, students, working with a partner, problem solve the answers to seven word problems involving data.

In this data vocabulary worksheet, students search for 16 graph-related words in a word search grid. Each word relates to graphing and collecting data. 

In this biology activity, students identify and describe a number of easily observable genetic traits and compare the traits they have with other students. Then they identify and describe that some traits are common while others are not...

What locations on Earth get the longest number of hours of daylight in the summer? Hint: It's not the equator! Use real-world sunrise and sunset data to develop trigonometric models that can be used to estimate the number of hours of...

Does temperature affect the air pressure of a football? Young mathematicians look at the readings from a pressure gauge and determine if the balls are within regulation or are under inflated.

Scholars must determine the maximum area for a rectangular plot of land enclosed with 100 meters of rope. As the work they discover patterns and numerical approaches to solve the problem.

Let the resource take center stage in a lesson on population density. Scholars use provided historical data on the center of the US population to see how it shifted over time. They plot the data on a spreadsheet to look the speed of its...
