Students calculate the slope of a line. In this slope instructional activity, students use a graph, an equation or two points to help them calculate the slope of a line. They differentiate between a slope of zero and an undefined slope.

Young scholars define the slope of the line, find the slope between any two points on the line, and allow them to name other areas where the slope is used. They explain why the slope is defined as the rise over the run.

In this algebra learning exercise, students calculate the point of intersection between a circle and a straight line. There are 5 questions with an answer key.

Learners investigate the slope of a cubic function. They find the tangent line of the cubic function at point P, and discuss the relationship between point P and point Q, the point the tangent line intersects the cubic function. ...

Learn how to evaluate the derivatives of polynomials.  Mathematicians find the derivative of a quadratic function and determine the value at a given value.  Students compare the slope of the secant line through two points with...

Students graph lines in a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students graph lines on a coordinate plane, and identify the slope. They calculate the volume, area and perimeters of the shapes created on a coordinate plane.

Middle schoolers identify how to use a scatterplot to compare two sets of data to determine if they are related. Then they identify and describe the definition of regression line (the "line of best fit"). Students also identify how...

For this math activity, learners find the slope of four lines when they are drawn on a coordinate grid. Students are given the slope and draw the line for two lines. They use the slope formula to find slope when given two points on a...

In this collecting data worksheet, 4th graders use the data shown on how fast 6 animals can run to create a bar graph. Students follow the instructions on 3 directives for their bar graphs and answer 1 short answer question.

Students investigate parabolas and their equations.  In this parabolas and their equations lesson plan, students graph quadratic equations on their graphing calculator.  Students find the axis of symmetry of a parabola. ...

In this reflections and symmetry instructional activity, learners draw lines of symmetry in shapes and patterns and reflect letters over lines in graphs. Students complete 20 problems.

Learners discuss scatter plots then create a class scatter plot using their heart rate at rest and their heart rate after a few minutes of aerobic exercises. Students copy the points plotted as a class and create individual graphs...

For this matrices for data worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 29 various types of problems that include using matrices to illustrate data. First, they determine the sum, difference and scalar product for each matrices shown. Then,...

Students practice addition facts, record data, and construct a bar graph. In this probability lesson, students participate in a board game in which bicycles move towards a finish line based on players completing addition problems. Dice...

Seventh graders analyze different types of graphs and answer questions related to each. In this math lesson, 7th graders organize a given diagram to make it easier to interpret. They discuss why they made such changes.

In this congruence statements worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 16 various types of problems. First, they complete each congruence statement listed. Then, students graph each set of points on the coordinate plane provided. They...

Pupils explore the concept of derivatives. They use implicit differentiation to determine points on a graph where a tangent line is horizontal, vertical, or oblique. Finally, learners find the derivative of a polynomial by...

Students linearize data to determine if an exponential model is suitable. In this linearizing data to determine if an exponential model is suitable lesson plan, students graph the residuals of sets of data that appear to have an...

Learners explore graphs and define the different ways they are used to display data. In this algebra lesson, students collect data and plot their data using the correct graph. They draw conclusions from their graphs based on their data.

Students count, sort, and classify jellybeans by color. They use their data to create a bar graph. Students are given a small bag of jellybeans, and a worksheet on Counting Candies Tally Chart. They work in small groups. Students are...

In this Super Bowl worksheet, students create line plots of all winners and losers of the Super Bowl.  They create stem-and-leaf plots, scatter plots, and bar graphs of football data.  This one-page worksheet contains...

Students practice sampling and graphing techniques. In this data collection and interpretation instructional activity, students write and conduct surveys about chocolate preferences and then collect their data. Students graph the data in...

Tenth graders explore the angle relationships that exist when two lines intersect. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders estimate the measure of given angles and use their graphing calculator tools. Students use this knowledge to find...

Students are able to identify ordered pairs on coordinate plane, and graph points on a coordinate plane. They are able to write an ordered pair for each of the points on a graph, and create a design or picture using ordered pairs.
