Illustrative Mathematics: F Le Boiling Water

For Teachers 9th - 10th
Young scholars are shown two tables of data showing the approximate boiling point of water at different elevations. Both data sets can be modeled by linear functions but with different slopes. When the tables are combined, however,...
