Middle and high schoolers use the slope intercept form to graph a line. In this algebra lesson, pupils rewrite equations from standard form to y-intercept form. They use the slope and y-intercept to graph a line without making a table of...

For this solving equations worksheet, learners solve one- and two-step equations containing one variable, as well as positive and negative whole numbers. Students examine equations containing multiplication, addition, and subtraction....

Graph linear equations using a table of values. Learners solve equations in two variables using standard form of an equation. They identify the relationship between x and y values.

In this algebra worksheet, students solve 11 quadratic equations for the given variable. Four problems require students to multiply two binomials. The final 5 problems students are to solve by completing the square.

Connect geometric sequences to exponential functions. The 26th installment of a 35-part module has scholars model situations using geometric sequences. Writing recursive and explicit formulas allow scholars to solve problems in context.

Your class will be very interested in the results of this activity. How long does it take a MP3 and video game player to charge?  Sam only has an hour and the MP3 player only has 40% of its battery life left. Plus, his video player...

Natural human interest in patterns and algebraic study of function notation are linked in this introductory unit on the properties of sequences. Once presented with a pattern or situation, the class works through how to justify...

Your Algebra learners analyze and solve an exponential equation in this popular, real-life model of the cooling of a liquid.  

Good things happen when algebra and geometry get together! Continue the exploration of coordinate geometry in the third activity in the series. Pupils explore linear equations and describe the points of intersection with a given polygon...

Controlling the efficiency of a greenhouse is a mathematical task. A collaborative project challenges learners to create an efficiency plan for a closed greenhouse. Using algebraic equations, they consider a set of constraints, design...

Have your class investigate Piecewise functions by matching a position versus time graph to the function that describe the walk.

Pupils find the difference between consecutive y-values on the calculator and write an equation that fits the data.  They continue finding the differences in consecutive y-values using lists on their calculator. Learners...

Pupils investigate the connection between factors, zeros, and graphs of quadratic functions.  The instructional activity requires the TI-nspire handheld.

students construct the graph of the Witch of Agnesi, and investigate both its asymptotes and inflection points. They construct the graph of the Witch of Agnesi and conjecture the asymptotes and inflection points of the function. ...

High Schoolers engage in a study of quadratic functions and focus upon the finding of equivalence and its connection between functions. They also practice factoring using the FOIL method while manipulating the equation. The lesson also...

In this algebra worksheet, students rewrite word problems using an algebraic equation to find the answer. There are 14 questions with an answer key.

In this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders examine models whose behavior can be described by a linear function.  The four page worksheet contains explanation of topic, three guided problems, and eight practice problems. ...

Young scholars create number lines using decimals and whole numbers. In this algebra lesson, students graph and solve linear equations. They plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane correctly.
