How many nurses does it take to support one doctor? A project-based activity asks learners to analyze state data to answer this question. Classes create polynomial functions from the data of doctors and nurses over a seven-year...

Examine trends in student-to-teacher ratios over time. Building from the first task in the two-part series, classes now explore the pattern of student-to-teacher ratios using a non-linear function. After trying to connect the pattern to...

A wonderful study tutorial explaining the limits of infinite sequences. There are theorems and examples.

This site from the Northeast Parallel Architectures Center of Syracuse University is a great site for studying the limits at infinity. This page contains six links to information on the subject. Just click on the one you want information...

Learners explore limits. Topics investigated are continuity, limits at infinity, limit properties, tangent lines, and rates of change. Class notes, definitions, and examples with detailed solutions are included. The class notes are...

In Spanish. This interactive unit can help you to understand the concept of infinity limit.

Students are given the techniques for evaluating limits with and without using a graphing calculator. Both limits as x approaches a and as x approaches +/- infinity are given.

In this activity, students develop an understanding of what it means to take a limit at infinity. They learn to estimate limits from graphs and tables of values.

Beginning with a discussion on continuity, this site introduces the concept of limits. Several examples are presented, some of which allow you to work the problem yourself before seeing the problem. Graphs are included on several of the...

Here is a site that clearly and thoroughly explains the concept of infinite limits. There are example problems solved, problems for the student to attempt, and answers to the student problems. Point this site out to students who have...

This interactive unit shows you the relationship between functions and their graphs. You can practice how to calculate the limit of the function as x approaches plus or minus infinity.
