Dive into this resource on rates of change and linear models. Pupils use two sliders in an interactive to adjust water temperature and depth. They use a given linear equation to calculate the rate of change in water temperature per unit...

Find the faster rate. The resource tasks the class to compare proportional relationships represented in different ways. Pupils find the slope of the proportional relationships to determine the constant rates. They then analyze the...

Solve alcohol systems to find the right solution. The interactive allows pupils to manipulate the amount of a solution and displays the total amount in a mixture. Individuals determine the amount of each solution needed to make 15 liters...

Zip this resource into your lesson plans. Here is an interactive that shows how angles and lengths change based on conditions for a zip line. Scholars use the Law of Cosines to solve problems in this context.

An inquiry-based algebra lesson explores real-world applications of linear functions. Scholars investigate four different situations that can be modeled by linear functions, identifying the rate of change, as well as the...

The example of two travelers meeting somewhere along the road has been a stereotypical joke about algebra as long as algebra has existed. Here in this detailed presentation, this old trope gets a careful and approachable treatment....

Determine the length of a falling ladder. Pupils use an interactive to find the angle a ladder makes with the floor after it falls to answer questions. The scholars use the triangle formed in the interactive to determine values of...

Good fences make good gardens. Individuals use an interactive to see how angles and sides relate in a triangular-shaped garden fence. They apply the Law of Sines to find the length of the garden gate (third side of triangle) given two...
