What's the Zero of a Function?

Find the cards that get to zero. The activity introduces the class to the idea of adding integers. Pupils use a number line to count up and count down when adding. They play a game to collect cards that will sum to zero.

Class members investigate how positive and negative numbers are useful in the real world. Individuals first read a short passage and identify terms indicating positive and negative numbers. They consider situations involving positive...

Develop a strategy for solving quadratic equations. Pupils learn to factor quadratic equations and then apply the Zero Theorem. The instructor explains the Zero Theorem in detail.

Is a zero exponent the same as having no exponent? Viewers learn how to deal with zero exponents by watching a video. They also watch a brief justification for why x^0 = 1.

Why does an exponent of zero result in a value of one? Give your classes a concrete explanation for this property that many struggle to remember. A video lesson provides an explanation and provides examples of exponential expressions...

Zero in on a commonly mistaken property. The video instructor shows several examples of expressions raised to the power of zero. Each example incorporates a different exponent property and highlights common misconceptions.

Some lessons feature videos, some interactive practice problems, and some have notes and activities. This comprehensive look at factoring and solving polynomial equations using the zero product principle has all of this and more. Though...

The zero of a function is the x-value of a function that makes a function equal zero. I know, it sounds confusing. So watch this video as the teacher demonstrates what this means.

A mathematic impossibility? What? There's something you can't do in math? Yes! Believe it or not, you can't divide by zero! Watch this video and see the proof.

There is one exception to this rule, but all numbers that have a power of zero equal one. Don't believe it? Watch this video as the instructor breaks it down to prove this to be true. This makes solving a problem with a zero exponent...
