This worksheet starts off with a practice of graphing basic inequalities. There are examples of each type of inequality, some written with the variable on the right. The worksheet moves on to solving one-step inequalities and graphing the solution on a number line. The problems are a mix of various difficulty including multiplying and dividing by a negative number to "flip" the sign.

This exploration gives students a context in which to apply their knowledge of functions and function rules. It involves 4 different scenarios of students collecting pennies. Each student starts off with a different amount of pennies and earns a different amount each day. For each scenario, they must fill in a table with ordered pairs, graph the ordered pairs, and then make predictions for future days. Discussions that may arise include how to predict for future days and the weaknesses of ea

This exploration requires students to complete charts involving radical expressions and then analyze the charts. They are required to identify patterns and create rules for multiplying radical expressions. The examples used involve multiplying simple radical expressions, radical expressions with coefficients, and using the distributive property. This exploration also ties into multiplying binomial expressions through the FOIL technique. Students' knowledge is extended by incorporating multip

This exploration takes students through the steps of dividing polynomials. Part I is a review of long division using two, three, and four digit numbers. Students also review what happens when there is a remainder (they will need this further in the exploration). Part II utilizes algebra tiles to make a connection between the dividend, divisor, and factors of the dividend. There is a note-taking part for the steps to carryout polynomial long division and a practice page that includes 8 straig

This exploration requires students to use their knowledge of multiplying binomials to identify patterns in the product. They then use these patterns to factor a trinomial. Students will also use their knowledge of graphing quadratic functions to graph some of the examples. There is also a practice page that includes 12 practice problems

Students are given various scenarios in which they must evaluate formulas/expressions for given replacement values. The worksheet consists of 5 problems.

Spiral Review #1 is comprised of 6 questions as follows: Question 1: Students must fill in a chart of equivalent values of fractions, decimals, percents, and scientific notation. Question 2: Students order a set of numbers from greatest to least. Question 3: Students determine two consecutive numbers between which the square root of 34 falls. Question 4: This question is a real world application of square roots. Students use their knowledge of square roots to determine the dimensions of a roo
