Students work with given formulas to solve for specific variables. The calculation of the volume of a cylinder and the change in volume when there is a constant surface area is analyzed in this lesson.

Pupils identify the slope of a line given two points on the line. In this algebra lesson, students solve linear equations by finding and comparing slopes of lines. They differentiate between the steepness of the slope and the line.

Middle schoolers differentiate between exponential and logarithmic functions. In this algebra lesson plan, students use logarithmic properties to solve equations. They identify growth and decay of graphs.

Learners investigate the concept of functions and how they are used with polynomials. They practice finding the zeros of functions and graph polynomial functions for the help of giving solutions. Students interpret the curve of a line...

Students plot quadratic curves to distinguish how different values of a affect a graph. They solve quadratic equations by completing the square. Student's recognize the connection between the roots and the corresponding graph's...
