Star Light...Star Bright
For this brightness of stars worksheet, students use a given formula using the temperature in Kelvins of a star to find its brightness. Students solve 4 problems using this equation.
Curated OER
Modeling the Keeling Curve with Excel
For this modeling the Keeling Curve worksheet, students use given data beginning in 1960 to create a mathematical model for the changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide over time. Students manipulate the equation to predict the carbon...
