Young mathematicians will identify the minimum, maximum-and zeros of a function in this calculus lesson. They relate the derivative of a function to its zeros and minimum or maximum. They then graph their solutions and explain different...

In this optimization worksheet, students solve 20 short answer word problems. Students read, sketch, define variables, write equations, differentiate their equations, and find the maximum or minimum of each word problem.

In this statistics activity, students identify the different parts of a whisker plot. They find the minimum, maximum and the three different quartiles.   There are 8 multiple choice questions with an answer key.

Introduce mean, median, and mode and post these bright posters in your classroom. The posters focus on the vocabulary and highlights the answer choice. Each one is colorful, which will engage and attract your learners. 

In this calculus instructional activity, students are given functions and values to derive using the functions. They are asked to find the maximum, minimum and point of inflection. There are 28 questions.

In this calculus worksheet, learners calculate the maximum, minimum, and determine if the graph is concave up or down. There are 2 questions.

Open your imagination to make algebra-inspired creations. An interactive lesson has scholars graph images from a set of parameters. Users can practice minimum values, maximum values, and scale as well as key features.

What is absolute value? What is an absolute value function? Emerging mathematicians solve equations containing variables inside an absolute value sign.  They graph each function on a coordinate plane and identify the maximum and...

Students engage in a lesson that is concerned with the concepts of absolute maximum and minimum while solving for absolute extrema. They solve example problems that are used for direct instruction, guided practice, and independent...

In this function worksheet, students compute the directional derivative of a function and identify the xy-coordinates of the maximum and local minimum. This two page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

In this relative maximum worksheet, students determine the velocity and the relative maximum and minimum of given functions. They identify continuous functions and illustrate their graphs of functions. This three-page worksheet...

In this maximum and minimum activity, students determine the dimensions of given figures inscribed within other figures or within graphs. This one-page activity contains seven dimension problems.

Learners practice with the StudyCard set on assessing real-world contexts dealing with the concepts of maximum, minimum, increasing and decreasing. They view a variety of quadratic functions and equations with their TI-83 Plus calculators.

Pupils practice a variety of strategies with varying numbers of tiles to form shapes and then find the minimum and maximum perimeter for each one. Each group is assigned a different area to build either with square tiles or a geoboard....

What information can be gleaned from a box and whiskers plot? Discuss the five summary values - minimum, maximum, upper and lower quartiles, and median - and what conclusions can be made from these values? Included here is a matching...

You can't see patterns in a jumble of numbers ... so organize them! Learners take a set of data and use a line plot to organize the numbers. From the line plot, they find minimum, maximum, mean, and make other conclusions about the...

Students calculate the maximum and minimum of each function. In this algebra lesson plan, students collect and graph data to analyze it. They differentiate between the absolute max and min and the maxima and minima of each function.

Students find the solutions of polynomials through graphing. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the maximum and minimum of each polynomial function. They ind the vertex, domain and range of a parabola.

In this Algebra II/Pre-Calculus worksheet, students investigate the maximum volume of a cuboid and the maximum volume of an open-topped box.  Additionally, students determine the acceptable size for boxes to meet parcel service...

In this curve sketching activity, students solve 13 short answer and graphing questions. Students find maximums, minimums, critical points, turning points, increasing/decreasing intervals, etc.

In this quadratic formula instructional activity, high schoolers solve 5 quadratic problems.  Students use the quadratic formula to find maximums, minimums, roots, and y-intercepts.

You can learn to graph as well as a calculator using calculus. The lesson introduces using derivatives to find critical points needed to graph polynomials. Pupils learn to find local maximums and minimums and intervals of increase...

In this number range worksheet, students solve 21 problems in which a series of five numbers is analyzed. Students record the minimum and maximum numbers. There are no examples.

Let the graph tell the story! Adding context to graphs allows learners to analyze the key features of the function. They make conclusions about the situation based on the areas the graph is increasing, decreasing, or has a maximum...
