What Is Your Rate of Work?

Pupils visualize distance-rate-time problems by using bar models. The instructional activity presents examples of four different types of rate problems and shows how they can be solved using bar models and equations. Each...

In this word problem worksheet, algebra students solve classic work problems. They find work rates, time to complete a task with a partner, or time to complete task alone. Twelve word problems are included in this worksheet. An answer...

Use a hands-on approach to exploring the concepts of related rates in your AP Calculus class. Individuals explore the effect of the rate of change on a variable related to a variable they control. After analyzing the data they...

It's all relative! A video introduces the concept that the relative rate of growth is the rate of growth relative to the dependent variable, and then compares the equation of the standard model and the relative growth version.

With math all around us, your learners will see they can create an equation to model different situations. From fundraising to a cell phone plan, your mathematicians can find the starting point b, plug in the rate of...

Just how fast is the function changing? The presenter provides a general explanation of the average rate of change in the 28th presentation in a series of 31 calculus videos. The video moves on to find the average rate of change for a...

Rates of change can be a slippery slope. The resource makes the connection between the rate of change and the slope of a line. It continues on to provide examples of how to interpret the slope and the y-intercepts of linear equations...

At this rate, you'll know all about ratios in no time. Scholars view a short video that discusses advanced concepts regarding ratios and rates. They first determine the speed of a subway from a graph, and then find unit rates given...

Here's a great lesson that looks at slope as an instantaneous change. Using an estimated tangent line, the presenter shows the class how to find an approximation for the instantaneous rate of change. Scholars determine the slope of the...

Your learners will dance in their seats as this talented drummer connects math to music in a short video clip. Clayton Cameron shows how math puts the "cool" in various genres of music, including jazz, hip-hop, pop,...
