This task asks students to solve a quadratic equation in as many different ways as they can. Aligns with A-REI.B.4 and A-REI.D.11.

For this problem, students compare the growth of exponential functions versus polynomial functions and find that an exponential function takes larger values than a cubic polynomial function provided the input is sufficiently large....

This lesson focuses on Interpreting and analyzing linear, quadratic, and exponential models and graphs. Students will use best fit lines to interpret contexts, distinguish whether contexts are linear or exponential functions, use the...

The goal of this task is to examine some population data for large cities from a modeling perspective. Students are asked to decide if the population data can be accurately modeled by a linear, quadratic, and/or exponential function, and...

This site is a lesson plan on construction of a parabola using the definition. Geometer's Sketch Pad software is beneficial for the lesson. Through the lesson students develop gemetric constructions of parabolas, use the distance formula...
