A Tale of Two Lines
Students graph systems of equation. In this calculus lesson plan, students graph their lines on a TI calculator. They identify the point of intersection and the type of solution.
Curated OER
Limits at Infinity
Young mathematicians solve problems involving limits in this calculus lesson. They identify the value of x as the limit approaches positive and negative infinity. Learners study the magnitude as x increases in value.
Curated OER
Epsilon-Delta Window Challenge
Students graph functions and analyze them. In this calculus lesson, students define limit formally using Epsilon-Delta. They use the TI to graph the function and analyze it.
Curated OER
Limit of a Sequence
Young scholars solve problems using limits in this calculus lesson. They calculate the solution to a problem by substituting in positive integers and relate the sequence output as it relates to the limit of a function.
Curated OER
Average Rate of Change, Difference Quotients, and Approximate Instantaneous Rate of Change
Pupils, with the assistance of their TI-84 Plus / TI-83 Plus calculators, distinguish meanings from right, left and symmetric difference quotients that include rate of change and graphical interpretations. They utilize symmetric...
