Domain and Range of a Function: Making Money Math
Graphs are useful for many things, including seeing how much money you can make. Individuals create a graph of earnings from a job based on the number of hours. They determine the domain and range of the graph and answer challenge...
Balanced Assessment
Garages and Phones
Examine and compare a linear and step function. The task provides two scenarios, one modeled by a linear function and the other a step function. Pupils create a graph for each and explain how each compares to the other.
