Worksheet 2: Functions as Machines
In this algebra worksheet, young scholars read about the concept of functions and how to apply them. Then they fill in the graphic organizer with the right type of functions.
Curated OER
Composition of Functions
Young scholars solve composition of functions. For this algebra lesson, students find the sum, difference and product of functions. They find the inverse of a function.
Curated OER
Relation Machines: Function
In this relation machine worksheet, students input given values into a function to determine the y-value answer. They identify functions. This two-page worksheet contains four multi-step problems.
Curated OER
Linear Functions
Fifth graders investigate the concept of a function in relationship to how it is used. The concept is essential for the future study of Algebra. They apply the use of patterns with its relationship to functions.
Curated OER
Applications of Quadratic Functions
In this math learning exercise, students investigate the quadratic functions. They solve the word problems while writing the new algebra expressions.
Curated OER
What's My Rule? Simple Linear Functions
Students investigate simple linear functions by trying to guess a function rule from inputs and outputs. They write the function rule in algebraic form.
Curated OER
Function Machine
Second graders decipher a pattern using input and output. In this functions lesson, 2nd graders use input and output numbers to find a pattern involving addition and subtraction. Students use the pattern they discovered to help solve...
Curated OER
The Function Box
Students explore arithmetic and numerical patterns. After observing a teacher created function box, students describe a pattern and predict what will "come out" of the function box. They explore patterns such as geometric shapes,...
Curated OER
Applications Of Rational Functions
Students engage in a instructional activity that is about relational functions with the application of methods to real life problem situations. They use the examples found in the instructional activity for the purpose of practice during...
Curated OER
Arithmetic Patterns
Introduce your young math scholars to functions. Because the answer is explained at the bottom of the page, consider projecting this and covering it up until you hear the class responses. They observe a rule (in this case to add 15) and...

Growing Patterns: Practical Pattern Problems
Your learners explore growing patterns by describing, extending, creating, and evaluating practical pattern problems in this three-day collaborative unit. Beginning with concrete patterns and function tables to extend and...
Curated OER
Prism Investigation (3)
In this prism investigation worksheet, students complete a table telling the shapes at the end of prisms, the number of sides at each end, and the number of edges and complete the pattern of a function machine. Students write eight answers.
Curated OER
Introduction To Functions
Students define a functions and solve problems using functions. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate functions from non-functions. They differentiate between polynomials of higher degrees.
Curated OER
Arithmetic Patterns
When one number goes in, another comes out. Scholars are introduced to math functions as they multiply, subtract, and divide numbers to get new ones. There are three functions and tables of numbers here; pupils apply the rule to each...
Curated OER
Function Tables
Students identify function using tables of data. In this algebra lesson, students create a tale of point and plot on a coordinate plane. They analyze the graph as being a function or not.
Curated OER
Algebra
Students practice using a function machine online to help them with functions. They examine the relationship between input and output. They discover the rule for the change when completing these types of problems.
Curated OER
Mixed Tables
Who knows how to operate these multiplication machines? Young mathematicians examine five machines, each with a specific function (i.e. x3) to transform the input numbers to output numbers. They send five numbers through each machine,...
Curated OER
Doubles
These dragons work as math machines as scholars multiply numbers using given functions, which remain the same for these: double it. Using an example as their guide, learners double three whole numbers, none of which exceed 11, for each...
Curated OER
What's My Function?
Fifth graders utilize input/output tables to help them solve algebraic equations. They incorporate patterns, number sequences and relations to represent and analyze mathematical problems and number relationships using algebraic symbols.
