Most scholars associate density with floating, but how do scientists determine the exact density of an unknown liquid? The third lesson in a seven-part series challenges scholars to find the mass and volume of two unknown liquids. Each...

Tell the story of the math. Given a graph of a linear system, learners write a story that models the graph before crafting the corresponding functions. Graphs intersect at an estimated point, allowing for different variations in the...

In this Algebra I/Algebra II worksheet, young scholars determine the slope of a line, write the equation of a line, examine parallel and perpendicular lines, and solve problems involving linear relationships.  The two page worksheet...

In this math worksheet, students plot lines on a graph paper when given the equation for the line in slope-intercept form. They tell the values of the slope and the y-intercept. Students find the x and y intercepts and plot three lines....

Students identify the slope of a lines.In this algebra lesson, students define the  meaning of slope and write an equation given the slope. They graph linear functions using the slope and y-intercept.

In this slope worksheet, students answer 16 slope intercept questions. They determine slopes based on equations, graphs and coordinates. Students also find the equations of lines parallel and perpendicular to a given line and that goes...

In this math worksheet, students are given three lines graphed on a coordinate grid. Students identify the slope, intercepts, and write an equation for each. Students find the intercepts of a linear equation, and graph them. They write...

For this Algebra I/Algebra II worksheet, learners solve problems involving interpreting the slope of a linear equation as a rate of change.  The two page worksheet contains a combination of seven multiple choice and free response...

In this problem solving worksheet, 7th graders focus on slope. Students solve 6 problems using the given coordinates for each.

Students determine if there is an associationm in a scatter plot of data. They analyze data through predictios, comparisons, and applications. Students calculate the line of best fit using a graphing calculator. They display data in...

Students take the derivative of a function. For this calculus lesson, students define slope fields and what they are used for. They relate slope fields to the real world.

In this scatter plots and line of best fit worksheet, students create scatter plots from given sets of data. They answer questions concerning the scatter plot. Students write the equation of a line, identify the type of correlation...

Use this worksheet to write equations in both point-slope form and slope-intercept form. Start by writing equations given one point and the slope and finish by writing equations given two points and a few real-world applications. The...

Young mathematicians explore transformations of graphs by graphing sets of functions on the same pair of axes. They use their graphs to determine the effect that the values of a and b in y = ax + b have on the graph of y = x.

Students write the equation of a line when given the graph, two points on the line, or the slope and a point on the line. The lesson format is teacher lecture, guided instruction, and independent practice.

Determine the average on a curve. The class finds graphical representations of averages and expresses them both symbolically and on the graph. The assessment requires class members to justify using average to describe graphs.

Learners investigate average rates of change for linear functions and connect the concept to slope. They then determine average rates of change in quadratic and exponential functions.

Just between us, this is a pretty cool lesson! Given two functions with the same slope, learners write three new functions whose outputs are all between the given functions. The question is open-ended, allowing pupils to explore the...

Here is a quick guide to direct, joint, and inverse variation used in realistic situations. Each topic has a page of notes and examples followed by practice problems. The resource explains each type of variation and provides their...

Your learners will practice many ways of describing data using coordinate algebra in this unit written to address many Common Core State Standards. Simple examples of different ways to organize data are shared and then practice problems...

In this Algebra I worksheet, students determine the graph of the equation of a line.    Students determine the x- and y-intercepts and graph. The three page worksheet contains six problems. Answers are not...

Students explore the concept of graphing stations.  In this graphing stations lesson, students head to various teacher set-up stations involving slope, point-slope, standard form, parallel lines, etc.  Students work problems at...

Students graph their linear equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students examine their lines and relate it to the slope or rate of change. They relate the steepness of the line to the slope being positive, negative or zero.

This basic handout would be good for skills practice or a review of parallel and perpendicular lines. Review the definitions, then practice writing equations of lines that pass through a specific point and are either parallel or...
