Description
You are starting a business! The business can be selling any concrete item that you want (that is school appropriate of course). However your business must be selling a product for a consistent price and this price must be between $10 and $30. Your business must also require a start-up or initial fee for customers that must be between $50 and $100. If you want to change your parameters, you must get it approved by me!
This is a project used at the end of a unit on linear functions. Students will come up with a business idea selling a product. They will be required to create a function for their business and display it in table, graph, and equation form. They will then complete a variety of other tasks from creating a billboard to figuring out the break even point for their business to having a business meeting with another group to compare their functions.
At the conclusion of this project, students will present their business idea to the class and a winner will be chosen! Think Shark Tank!
