Explore linear functions! In this Algebra I lesson, mathematicians graph data in a scatter plot and use a graphing calculator to find a linear regression and/or a median-median line. They use the model to make predictions.

Print and use this useful unit on basic algebraic functions, domain, range, and graphing. Tasks include, illustrating simple functions with a graph, and identifying the domain and range of the function. This twelve-page packet contains...

The key is ... After a day of instruction on key features of graphs, groups create a poster and presentation on the key features of their given function graph. The resource provides an extension activity of "telephone" using...

Pupils must graph the location of a train using the time given a timetable. They analyze the different legs of the trip, graph the return trip, and compare the two graphs. The lesson ends with a discussion of similarities and...

Computers are useful for more than just surfing the Internet. Pupils first investigate scatter plots and estimate correlation coefficients. Next, they use Microsoft Excel to create scatter plots and determine correlation...

Let's keep trigonometry simple. When given a cosine ratio, learners must use the clues about the quadrant to determine the sine and tangent ratios. The answer key has a complete worked-out solution to help guide pupils through the...

In this math learning exercise, students explore the rates of convergence for functions and sequences. They also practice using Taylor series approximations.

Start with the basics and move up the exponential ladder to master a variety of problem-solving and application problems. The problems are heavy on exponential growth and decay, compound interest, and natural log.  

Here is a (great) lesson on using parentheses! The task requires the expression of ages using algebraic expressions, including the distributive property. Pupils use their expressions to determine the individual ages.

Thirty at the party won't cost any more than twenty-five. The assessment task provides a scenario for the cost of a party where the initial fee covers a given number of guests. The class determines the cost for specific numbers of guests...

Babies grow at an incredible rate! Demonstrate how to model growth using a linear function. Learners build the function from two data points, and then use the function to make predictions.

Old mathematicians never die; they just lose some of their functions. Studying sequences gives scholars an opportunity to use a new notation. Learners write functions to model arithmetic and geometric sequences and use them to find new...

Your class will be very interested in the results of this activity. How long does it take a MP3 and video game player to charge?  Sam only has an hour and the MP3 player only has 40% of its battery life left. Plus, his video player...

In this derivative of a power worksheet, students compare derivatives of functions, and graph functions. This one-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.

Investigators examine the clues to complete 17 sequences by skip counting backwards. There are two examples to get them started, and all of these patterns include the first three numbers but are missing the last five. If you want...

For 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.

In this function worksheet, students read word problems and write functions to solve them. They explore the domain and range of each function. This two-page worksheet contains eight story problems.

In this algebra worksheet, 5th graders solve 6 word problems by finding the value of variable in function tables. They use the information to solve the problems.

In this limits and continuity test, students solve 8 multiple choice questions. They define the words limits and continuity. Students determine the limits of 8 functions. Students find the value for a constant in one function, and prove...

In this interval worksheet, students find the intervals of increase and decrease and all local extrema. They sketch a graph of the function and describe the intervals of concavity and all inflections points. This two-page worksheet...

In this math maze worksheet, students navigate their way through a maze using clues and spelling out math vocabulary words. A reference web site is included for additional activities. 

In this calculating arc lengths worksheet, students are given 4 simple functions and they use the Pythagorean Theorem and the basic techniques of calculus to find the arc-length formula in order to find the arc-length.

In this recognizing verb usage worksheet, learners use context clues to fill in the blanks and complete sentences with verbs in the future perfect simple or continuous tenses and then create additional sentences. Students write 19 answers.

In this calculus worksheet, students work problems containing functions, limits and dealing with continuity. They evaluate functions and use the limits theorem to help find the correct answer. There are 26 questions.
