In these interactive visualizations, explore the relationship between calculating miles per gallon (mpg) to gallons per mile in fuel use for vehicles. Most drivers think gas usage falls linearly (in a straight line) as mpg increases. But...

In this interactive, students use logic and mathematical skill to place animals at the correct points on a Cartesian graph representing the cardinal directions. Then, they use the Pythagorean theorem to determine the distances between...

By the end of this section, you will be able to explain gravitational potential energy in terms of work done against gravity, show that the gravitational potential energy of an object of mass m at height h on Earth is given by PEg = mgh,...

The concept of a present discounted value (PDV), which is defined as the amount you should be willing to pay in the present for a stream of expected future payments, can be used to calculate appropriate prices for stocks and bonds. To...

Explore the relationship between degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius. This video focuses on developing an expression to model the relationship between the temperature scales using a line graph to calculate slope and the y intercept.

An explanation of using heat capacity to calculate heat.

In this interactive, students use logic and mathematical skill to place aquatic animals at locations on a Cartesian graph with cardinal directions. Then, they determine both the vertical and horizontal distances between points. The...
