Using their trigonometry skills, students are going to determine how often any one key, or note, is played on a standard 88 key piano (keyboard). Your students will first need to find the common ratio between all the keys (the 52 white keys and the 36 black keys). Then, they will narrow down further by using the common ratio that was found to determine the use of higher or lower frequencies. The final step will be to create a sin function to find the constancy of use of any note(key) on that st

This MATH-O activity is designed to help students explore the use of logarithms. This game lets students apply the basic definition of a logarithm with various types of problems, such as finding exponents that belong with the base, and changing the logarithm to its exponential form and simplifying. It’s best to use after logarithms are introduced. MATH-O is just like the game BINGO. You can play the standard way of getting 5 boxes horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Or, you could play “cover

In this activity students will learn how linear systems can be used in a business to predict at what point the business will break even after any projected costs. The learners will use all three methods of solving a linear system to find the points of intersection, or the point at which a business will have recouped their costs, in two different scenarios. They will first consider a plan where a producer simply grows and sells unprocessed coffee beans to a distributor. Then they will be presente
