How Do You Find the Distance Between Two Points?

Develop a graph to represent the distance between two cars. The assessment task presents a scenario in which two cars are traveling at constant speeds with one faster than the other. Pupils develop graphical representations to show the...

Here is an introduction to solving simultaneous linear equations. Start by drawing a line through two points. Create a second line which goes through the intersecting point. Background knowledge of how to find the equation of a line and...

Can an equation have an infinite number of solutions? Allow your class to discover the relationship between the input and output variables in a two-variable equation. Class members explore the concept through tables and graphs and...

When presented with categorical data, a two-way frequency table is a great way to summarize the information. Pupils organize categorical data using a two-way table, then use the tables to determine missing data and to calculate simple...

Classmates apply midpoint concepts by leapfrogging around the complex plane. The 12th activity in a 32 segment unit, asks pupils to apply distances and midpoints in relationship to two complex numbers. The class develops a formula to...

Being a statistician means never having to say you're certain! Learners develop two-way frequency tables and calculate conditional and independent probabilities. They understand probability as a method of making a prediction. 

Sal adds a few more steps to these problems as he solves algebraic equations with two steps, though he states that "there's more than one way to do it." Those who become confused by increasingly complicated algebra problems on a test...

The teacher demonstrates how to plug in values from two given points to find the slope of a line. She uses the slope formula and goes through the problem step-by-step.

Given two points on a line, write an equation in point-slope form. But what's the slope? Oh, you have to figure out the slope first. That can be done given two points. Just use the rise over run slope formula. This isn't so hard after...

There are two given values on a number line, what is the midpoint? Here's another formula. Identify the two given points, add them together, and then divide by two and that's the solution. Need proof? Then watch this video as the teacher...
