Braker, Braker - An Activity with Quadratic Functions in a Real-life Scenario
This activity allows students to explore quadratic functions in a real-life scenario, braking distances for cars travelling at different speeds. Students will research braking speeds through a webquest and will then answer questions both on reading comprehension and math skills. Then they will create a graph and use it, and the quadratic function, to answer questions about braking distances and speeds.
