Description:Answer Key includedThis activity could be used to introduce compound interest, as project, or as a group activity. This activity contains 3 parts: 1.Using the Internet, students research and select two interest-bearing bank accounts (savings, Money Market, CDs). 2. Graph the account balance over time for both accounts and the example (for a total of 3 exponential curves) to observe the exponential nature of compound interest. 3. Adjust each variable in the exponential growth func

This bundle includes material to take students from learning how find the equation of a line given 2 points, to examining the special cases of parallel, perpendicular, vertical and horizontal lines, to applying that knowledge to the application problems. Includes the following resources: Independent Activity: Equation of a line given 2 points. This activity covers finding the equation of a line given 2 points. Includes examples and practice problems. Mini-Project: Create a Line from 2 points

Go beyond “I do, we do, you do”. More thinking, less process. The user can choose to apply two discounts to a purchase: 1) a percentage off the purchase and 2) a fixed amount off the purchase. Part 1: The user can only apply 1 coupon. Which should they choose? Part 2: The user can apply both coupons. Does it matter which discount is used first?

Description:Answer Key includedThis activity contains 2 parts, students will: 1.Using the Internet, research and select one interest-bearing bank accounts (savings, Money Market, CDs). 2. Graph the account balance over time for their selected account and the example (for a total of 2 exponential curves) to observe the exponential nature of compound interest. Part 1 provides some practical experience with navigating banking information and facilitates the use of individualized data for each s

•This deck of 12 task cards can be used as a review of graph characteristics of several function families, or as a pre-assessment to determine how familiar students are with the vocabulary used to describe the shape of graphs. •The task cards include the following functions: linear, absolute value, quadratic, exponent, logarithm, the reciprocal function (1/x), and a cubic. •Each graph can be described using several characteristics, so students can provide different answers.
