In this math worksheet, students analyze a dartboard with scoring points marked for different areas. Students practice addition by adding up scores for 15 attempts at the dartboard.

In this math learning exercise, learners find factors they can multiply to equal the products given. All products are below 100. Some of the products are prime numbers. There are no examples given.

In this math instructional activity, students study 30 numbers. Although there are no clear directions, it appears that students are to indicate if the number is odd or even.

In this board board game worksheet, students follow the instructions to create their own board game. Students use the examples in the sheet for help in creating their game.

For this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders use an online quadratic equation solver to find the zeros of a quadratic.  The one page interactive worksheet provides one worked example and the equation solver. 

In this chemistry activity, students answer 2 problems on solution stoichiometry. They calculate the mass of products formed given a certain amount of reactant.

Learners explain how to prepare and keep food safely. For this health science lesson, students research common mistakes and tips for maintaining a clean kitchen. They identify main causes of foodborne diseases.

Learners solve several differential equations. In this calculus lesson, students test their modulus calculation by testing different weights or beam lengths. They share their findings in class.

An explanation of how to find maximum (or minimum) point of a quadratic equation, including graphs to enhance understanding. Includes several examples/exercises, with solutions on the page.

The following problems are maximum/minimum optimization problems. They illustrate one of the most important applications of the first derivative.

This CoolMath resource will help students find relative extrema.

The resource from Khan Academy explains how to use its study tools to prepare for the LSAT. The importance of creating an "equivalent rule" on "analytic reasoning" questions. "Minimum/Maximum" questions are also discussed.

This algebra lesson explains how to find the absolute maximums and minimums (extrema) of a polynomial.

Find out how to find relative minimums and maximums of the typical polynomial.

This StudyCard set is a teaching activity that uses real-world contexts to assist students in understanding the concepts of maximum, minimum, increasing, and decreasing.

The students can use varying numbers of tiles to form shapes, and then find the minimum and maximum perimeter for each.

Students can use the TI-84 Plus family to find the minimum or maximum and the zeros of quadratic functions.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this learning module, students are told the number of digits after a decimal point and the decimal's value when rounded. They must identify the maximum and the...

NASA's Scientific Visualization Studio uses data from several sources to track seasonal changes in Arctic sea ice and land cover over time. Scientists study sea ice because it influences global climate. Watch the following visualization...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This lesson covers finding the minimum(s), maximum(s), end behavior, domain, and range of a polynomial graph. Students examine guided notes, review guided practice,...

This site from Mathworld.com defines the minimum of a function and set.

Here is a site that clearly and thoroughly explains how to find the local maxima and minima of functions by using the first derivative. There are example problems solved, problems for the student to attempt, and answers to the student...

This site provides a portion of a textbook that explores increasing and decreasing functions. Students are provided examples and then have practice problems they can attempt to master the concept.

With this site one may understand how to test a point in a function for a relative minimum, maximum, saddle point, or none of these, by taking derivatives of the function. Explains and performs what is known as the "Extremum Test."
