Functions

Learn about functions and their applications. Real world examples are used to explore function applications, their domains and ranges. Equation, graph, table and plot examples are explored.

Geometry Connections

Connecting formulas and functions to plane and solid geometry. Explore area and volume by manipulating figure parameters.
Solving Equations: One Step Addition & Subtraction
Interactively learn to solve one step equations with addition and subtraction transformations. Uses an interactive balance beam to develop conceptual understanding. Identify the inverse operation and operate on both sides of the equation. A check list is developed.
Graphing Two Variable Equations
Procedure for graphing a 2 variable line equation. Isolate one variable, substitute values for one variable, evaluate for the other variable, put in a table of points and plot the coordinate pairs. Join coordinate pairs with a line.
Slope-Intercept Graphing Tool
Line equation graphing tool for slope-intercept form. Manipulate the slope and intercept coefficients with sliders.
Writing Linear Equations from Points
Writing linear equations in slope-intercept form from a graph. Drag and drop the line slope and intercept into the equation.
Practice Writing Linear Equations from Points
Practice writing a linear equation in slope-intercept form given a slope and point or two points. Drag and drop the line slope and intercept into the equation.
Linear System: Solve by Substitution
With a verbal investment problem a linear system of equations is developed. A solution is developed using a substitution method. A four step procedure for solving linear systems by substitution is developed. Several examples are developed using the procedure.
Linear Inequality System
