In this math learning exercise, students plot lines on a graph paper when given the equation for the line in slope-intercept form. They tell the values of the slope and the y-intercept. Students find the x and y intercepts and plot three...

For this analyzing solutions worksheet, students use Euler's Method to estimate the value of given functions. They estimate solutions using the piecewise-linear function model and sketch the information onto a graph. This two-page...

In this mean, median, and mode activity, students read how to use each method and then complete problems using each one. Students complete 8 problems.

In this AP Calculus BC worksheet, students answer seventeen multiple choice questions with the use of a calculator.  The questions are a fifty minutes times practice test for the AP exam.

In the Riemann sums worksheet, students use Riemann sums to estimate the area under a curve. They calculate intervals and subintervals. Students create a graph picturing the intervals. This seven-page worksheet contains explanations...

In this periodic table learning exercise, students use the data chart and the periodic table to solve questions about body chemistry.

In this area worksheet, students calculate area in five problems using geometry and integrals and find patterns using Riemann sums in one problem.

Students measure their own foot and place the outline on a graph. They make connections between the size of their foot and the bar graph that represents it.

Tenth graders grow two different bacteria cultures. They count the colonies, and then use graphing calculators to predict the number of colonies that are going to appear. Students answer questions from their worksheet after completing...

From z-scores to probability. Learners put together the concepts from the previous lessons to determine the probability of a given range of outcomes. They make predictions and interpret them in the context of the problem.

Do homework grades really determine test scores? Learn whether lines of best fit, correlation coefficients, and residuals can be used to determine test scores when given homework grades. (It would certainly save teachers time in grading...

Explore parametric equations in this lesson, and learn how to determine how much time it takes for an object to fall compared with an object being launched. high scoolers will use parametric equations to follow the path of objects in...

How can a federal debt accumulate over time? The Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) dashboard allows scholars to actively research each aspect of the federal budget. In pairs, they analyze economic data to determine the best way to...

Collections of data represented in stem and leaf plots are organized by young statisticians as they embark some math engaging activities.

A career in aeronautics might be calling your class members. Building from the previous two lessons in the series, learners continue analyzing the mathematics of aeronautics. Groups create a paper airplane using paperclips for balance....

Objects may be more linear than they appear. Scholars investigate the relationship between the number of bone mineral density scanners in the US and time. Once they take the natural logarithm of the number of scanners, a linear...

That's the ticket! Pupils write and investigate two linear functions representing the cost of printing tickets. Individuals then determine which of two printing companies would be a better buy.

It's not so straightforward — lines can model a variety of applications. Pupils experience linear relationships within the context of science, including Hooke's and Ohm's Laws. Class members got a taste of motion and speed from the...

Math can be a problem in eighth grade. Sample items show how problem solving exists within the eighth grade standards. Part of the Gr. 8 Claim 2 - 4 Item Slide Shows series, the presentation contains eight items to illustrate the...

Investigate the growth rates of alien animals. Pupils study fictional animals from another planet to determine how much they grow per year. The investigators plot the growth of their animals over a period of time and then compare...

A middle school test contains two 40-minute sections covering material through algebra. All questions involve applied problem solving or mathematical analysis.

A 13-page test contains two 40-minute sections, which provide word problems and applied analysis to cover material from pre-algebra through geometry.

Students determine how interests is calculated and a how it accrues. They examine charts and graphs that show the intricacies of interest. They determine how to increase their own saving by using interest while working with a partner to...

In this statistics worksheet, students solve and complete 13 different problems that include creating various box-and-whisker plots. First, they write a definition for mean, median, mode and range. Then students explain how to determine...
