If a linear function and a quadratic function enter a boxing match, which one would win? Learners first review how to find key features of linear and quadratic functions. Next, they compare key features of pairs of functions.

In this algebra worksheet, 11th graders solve quadratic functions using the quadratic formula. They take the square roots of both side of each equation then graph both the linear and quadratic functions. There are a total of 84 problems...

Learners find the common point of a linear and quadratic system given a graph of the system. Then they find a specific point located only on the parabola.

Introduce your algebra learners to linear and quadratic functions. Learners compare the differences and relate them back to the equations and graphs. Lead your class to discussions on the properties of a function or a constant slope...

Save the time creating an assessment because these function problems should do the trick. With 10 multi-part questions, they each focus on a different topic including radical, polynomial, linear and piecewise functions. The majority of...

Challenge the class to utilize their knowledge of linear and quadratic functions to determine the intersection of the parent quadratic graph and linear proportional graphs. Using the pattern for the solutions, individuals develop a...

In this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders use graphing to solve a system of equations in which one equation is linear and the other is quadratic.  The three page worksheet contains a combination of nine multiple choice and free...

Graphing all kinds of situations in one and two variables is the focus of this detailed unit of daily lessons, teaching notes, and assessments. Learners start with piece-wise functions and work their way through setting up and solving...

So, exactly, what does it look like? The easily usable graphing calculator allows pupils to visualize the graph of equations and inequalities. The interactive supports any algebraic graph needed for high school mathematics and then some.

So many methods and so little time! The efficient method of graphing a linear equation depends on what information the problem gives. Pupils learn three different methods of graphing linear equations. They graph equations using...

Pupils create models to represent both linear and quadratic equations.  In this algebra lesson, students collect data from the real world and analyze it. They graph and differentiate between the two types.

Use this series of activities to introduce learners to graphing functions. They graph both linear and quadratic equations by hand and with a Graph Sketcher Tool. Several imbedded links and handouts are included in the instructional...

Practice graphing basic equations. Algebra learners complete a table showing values of x and y. They graph the results on a coordinate grid. There are six problems: three equations are linear, and three are quadratic. The "show your...

Find quadratics in the world. Learners select ways to compare and contrast linear and quadratic functions and how to demonstrate knowledge of parabolas in the world. Teachers assign a third task challenging individuals to find equations...

Functions require an input in order to get an output, which explains why the answer always has at least two parts. After only three multi-part questions, the teacher can analyze pupils' strengths and weaknesses when it comes to...

Show your pupils that perimeter is linear and area is quadratic in nature with a short assessment task that requests learners to connect the graph and equation to a description about perimeter or area. Scholars then provide a...

Demonstrate linear and quadratic functions through contextual modeling. Young mathematicians explore both types of functions by analyzing their key features. They then relate these key features to the contextual relationship the function...
