Can you determine the exact volume of a bottle based on the relative volume of other bottles? A series of four videos shows someone pouring fluid into bottles. Scholars must set up a system of equations to determine how much each bottle...

How high did the ball go? Engineering teams build a working pneumatic system that launches a ball into the air. The teams vary the amount of pressure and determine the accompanying height of the ball. An extension of building a device to...

Obesity is a worldwide concern. Using survey results, learners compare local BMI statistics to celebrity BMI statistics. Scholars create box plots of the data, make observations about the shape and spread of the data, and examine the...

Bothered by a wobbly table? Learn how to fix this problem using concepts of slope and continuity. Pupils first consider the problem in two dimensions and then progress to three dimensions. The solution is really quite simple.

If a car gets heavier, it goes farther? By running an activity several times, teams experience Newton's Second Law of Motion. The teams vary the amount of weight they catapult off a wooden block car and record the distance the...

In this tile diagrams worksheet, 8th graders solve and complete 12 different problems that include using cups and tiles to solve each equation listed. First, they show the check process for each problem by substituting their answer for...

In this solving equations learning exercise,, students solve equations for the indicated variable. As students solve the problems, they select the check box to check their work and answers. The directions also encourage students to use...

In this algebra worksheet, students solve polynomial equations for the given variable. Seven problems require students to solve a given equation. The last three problems are word problems, each gives the required equation. Students...

Investigate field properties of real numbers. Scholars use a table for a given operation to determine the identity element. They use the same table to find a missing value in an equation.

Relate factors to zeros and x-intercepts. Scholars first graph quadratics in both standard and factored forms to see that they are the same. They go on to use the graphs to see the relationship between factors and x-intercepts.

In this similar triangles worksheet, students use proportions to solve for the missing sides of similar triangles. This two-page worksheet contains 16 multi-step problems.

In this intermediate word problem worksheet, learners read word problems, translate them into algebraic equations, and solve for the unknown. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

Students find the length of the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson plan, students solve for the different parts of a right triangle. They work the first problem with-the teacher then work on their own.

Have your class solve equations using matrices by teaching them how to factor systems of equation to identify the point of intersection. They create their matrices on the Ti and perform row operations to simplify.
