In this perimeter and area activity, middle schoolers examine given perimeters and determine the dimensions that will give the maximum area.  This one-page activity contains four multi-step problems.

Learners define the maximum and minimum of an equation. In this calculus lesson plan, students analyze point on a graph and determine when a graph is approaching a maximum or minimum. They take a Quiz after working some review problems.

In this practice exam instructional activity, students solve 17 multiple choice problems. Students find derivatives, points of continuity, maximums, minimums, integrals, and area of enclosed regions.

In this calculus worksheet, 12th graders answer questions about derivatives, increasing and decreasing functions, relative maximum and minimum and points of inflection. They also sketch the graph of the equation. There are 10 problems...

In this calculus worksheet, students solve for the critical values, open intervals and find the maximum and minimum. There are 7 questions dealing with the derivative.

In this graphs and derivatives worksheet, students graph the derivative of a function. They find the intervals and identify the maximum and minimum. This one page worksheet contains three multi-step problems.

In this algebra worksheet, students graph quadratic functions and identify the vertex, axis of symmetry, maximum and minimum and intercepts. There are 7 questions.

In this domain and range worksheet, students examine functions and identify the range of a function.  They find the maximum and minimum value of a function.  This two-page worksheet contains 7 multiple-choice problems. ...

For this math worksheet, students use protractors to measure each of a set of angles. This is a worksheet generator, the teacher controls the minimum and maximum angles students are presented with as well as whether or not to rotate...

Students define population and carrying. In this algebra lesson, students explore exponential growth and decay based on animals and things that grow or decrease exponentially. They graph their findings and discuss their results as they...

In this end of course review, learners factor expressions, interpret statistic problems, and identify the maximum and minimum of equations. This two-page learning exercise contains 5 multi-step problems.

Eighth and ninth graders graph a given function and identify the domain, range and intercepts. Theytell the intervals that the function is increasing, decreasing, or constant. Pupils identify the minimum and maximum of the graph, and...

Students explore the concept of a gradient search. In this gradient search lesson, students use the Gradient Search Algorithm to locate critical points, maximums, minimums, and answer questions in this problem solving lesson.

Time to show what you know about functions! The review concludes a series of nine lessons on the basics of functions. The problems included are modeled from the previous lessons. Pupils determine if a table represents a function,...

If a linear function and a quadratic function enter a boxing match, which one would win? Learners first review how to find key features of linear and quadratic functions. Next, they compare key features of pairs of functions.

The middle of the data is important, but what about the rest of it? The lesson plan shows learners the importance of the range, quartiles, and extreme values. Pupils practice finding each of these values from given data sets.

Whiskers are not just for cats! Pupils create box-and-whisker plots from given data sets. They analyze the data using the graphs as their guide.

As a middle school assessment task, learners first examine line graphs of monthly temperatures for two locations, and then match box plots to each line plot.

Get the class to take an extreme look at functions. The interactive presents a function on a closed interval with a movable tangent line. Using the given function, pupils determine the extrema, critical points, and points of...

Pupils rewrite expressions in equivalent forms to identify key features. They use the vertex and factored forms of quadratic expressions to identify the extrema and intercepts. To finish the installment of the Claim 1 Item Slide Show...
