Focusing on this algebra instructional activity, learners relate quadratic equations in factored form to their solutions and their graph from a number of different aspects. In some problems, one starts with the original equation and...

I like algebra, but graphing is where I draw the line! Worksheet includes three multiple-part questions on interpreting and drawing line graphs. It focuses on the abstract where neither axis has numbers written in, though both are...

For this Algebra II/college level worksheet, learners factor polynomials by pulling out the GCF and by grouping.  The two page worksheet contains seventy–two problems.  Answers are provided. 

In this evaluating expressions instructional activity, learners solve and complete 50 various types of review problems. First, they complete each sentence and define the listed terms. Then, students evaluate each expression for the given...

This worksheet begins with an explanation of how to add and subtract positive and negative integers. Learners solve and complete 20 different problems that include these types of problems. First, they fill in each blank with the correct...

Have some fun with functions with a short activity that asks learners to first sort scatter plot in terms of their correlation. They then sort graphs of different types of functions in terms of key features, such as slope.

Pupils use visual models, numeric methods, and equations to solve percent problems. To complete the second installment of 20, they find the part given the percent and the whole, find the percent given the part and the whole, and find the...

Use a vocabulary chart to introduce math functions. The class defines a list of mathematical vocabulary terms on a worksheet, as well as completes equations and expressions. They examine word problems and practice transcribing them into...

It doesn't get simpler than this. Scholars first learn to simplify radicals by determining the prime factors of the radicand. The lesson progresses to simplifying radicals involving algebraic expressions in the radicand.

How can you compare linear functions? The seventh installment of a 12-part module teaches learners how to compare linear functions whose representations are given in different ways. They use real-world functions and interpret features in...

Develop a new measure of the properties of an object. Scholars develop a definition and formula to measure the bumpy-ness of an object. They utilize their formulas to find the property for several spherical objects.

In this math worksheet, students are given 7 problems in which they write expressions for trig functions, compute limits and graph functions.
