Graphing Nonlinear Equations

Keep your mathematicians engaged using this group linear functions activity. Each of ten groups receives two graphs with both an image and equation, as well as a "who has" phrase to call out the next graph. Scholars stay on their toes as...

Think, question, brainstorm, and make your way through a newsletter full of puzzles and word problems. The resource includes 10 different newsletters, all with interesting problems, to give class members an out-of-the box...

Starting with a set of values for the x and y variables, this video shows how to tell whether these points determine a linear or non-linear function. Sal first defines linear functions in terms of the change in y over the change in x,...

This video explores a basic linear cost equation. Given a rate-per-photo and a one-time cost, write a function representing the amount a customer would pay for x number of photos.

Sal takes your class’s newfound (or growing) knowledge of graphs of lines to the next level. He presents a few word problems that mathematicians must understand to use linear function graphs.

It's not magic, it's math! Observe as a collection of points becomes a line. Scholars watch as a video instructor creates a table of values to graph linear equations. Examples include equations in both slope-intercept and standard forms.

Setup the idea of functions for the class. Using sets, the presentation introduces the concept of a function. The initial example uses a general function but then moves on to equations as functions. The video provides an example of an...

In this video, we create an equation and graph to show a linear relationship based on the word problem. This is a good example for algebra and pre-algebra learners to help them understand creating equations and graphing relationships...

Kick off the school year with some math fun! New classmates share information about themselves by using graphs and interpreting data. The goal is to use a general graph shape, such as linear or exponential, and create labels for the axes...

What goes in must come out! Learners play with a function machine to determine the correct function. They enter input values and watch as the machine produces the output.
