The third example shows how to write the equations in matrix form and use simult() to solve them.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dc-circuit-analysis
Exploring Hurricane Strength
In the activity, we explore multiple regression equations among Saffir-Simpson Scale, Pressure, Wind Speed, and Storm Surge of hurricanes. We relate our models to Hurricane Katrina, Gustav, and Ike.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-hurricane-strength
Lifting a Lion
In this activity, students will practice solving a real-world problem. Using a toy lion and a lever, students first discover how much work is needed to raise a toy lion. They will then use proportions to determine the force needed to lift a real lion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lifting-a-lion
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Killer Chat" - The Perfect House
The FBI found three bodies in different unoccupied houses, all for sale. Because the victims are completely unrelated, Charlie decides that profiling the houses might reveal a distinct pattern to find out where the killer will strike next. By using a Multi-Attribute Compositional Model, the house...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--killer-chat--the-perfect-house
Marching Columns
Students investigate constructing arrangements of different numbers of manipulatives into equal groups. They learn to use mathematical language, identify patterns with numbers, recognize the commutative property, and transfer the arrangements made with manipulatives to grid paper.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/marching-columns
How Salty Is It?
Students learn to solve a real-world problem involving salt water. Students will determine the amount of sea salt needed to turn an aquarium into a simulated salt-water environment. They also experiment with items and check their buoyancy in water with varying salt concentrations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-salty-is-it
Probability as Relative Frequency
In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event happening. Students investigate the binomial and geometric prob...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/probability-as-relative-frequency
Sampling Distributions
Students studies the distribution of sample proportions with a simulation. They find small sample size leads to skewed distribution and as the sample size increases, the distribution becomes more normal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling-distributions
Tests of Significance
Students understand how tests of significance can be performed with confidence intervals. They use a simulation to clarify the meaning of a hypothesis. Students examine large sample tests for a proportion, mean, difference between two proportions, and difference between two means. They also study...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tests-of-significance
Set Design
Students will use similarity concepts, and the dimensions of the carvings on Mt. Rushmore to create a proportional representation of the carvings for a stage backdrop.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/set-design
Stepping Stones
Students use volume formulas and proportional reasoning to calculate the amount of concrete needed to make stepping stones of a specific size.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stepping-stones
Dividing Notes
Students create an altered musical melody by dividing fractions. They compute the value of notes in terms of fractions and make their sum equal to the time signature.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dividing-notes
Homestead-Miami Chase Activity
In this activity, students will investigate whether it is better to take the shortest path or the fastest path.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/homesteadmiami-chase-activity
Number of Regions - An Introduction to the TI-Nspire CAS

It illustrates the variety of features available on the TI-Nspire CAS, as well as the ability to look at one problem from multiple representations ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-of-regions--an-introduction-to-the-tinspire-cas
Volumes of Rectangular Prisms
This lesson will introduce students to many of the algebraic graphing features of the TI-89 calculator, especially the Maximum command. This will be accomplished by solving volumes of right rectangular prisms. (Algebra / geometry activity)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/volumes-of-rectangular-prisms
Who Needs Mixed Numbers?
Students divide and multiply mixed numbers and fractions in real-life examples relating to carpentry.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-needs-mixed-numbers_1
What's So Special About 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered patte...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11
What's the Fastest Way to Get Rich?
Students investigate exponential growth and discover patterns by exploring different scenarios involving money. They will learn how repeatedly doubling, or multiplying by two, can also be expressed exponentially.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-fastest-way-to-get-rich
Let's Count the Ways
Students will be introduced to the different ways to calculate numbers of outcomes, including using the counting principle. They will also evaluate expressions using permutations of data without repeat elements, both manually and on the TI-34 MultiView™ calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lets-count-the-ways_1
The Ordinary Man
Students will estimate the heights of various celebrities in feet and inches. They will use the TI-34 MultiView™ scientific calculator to convert actual heights in inches to feet and inches, and they will compare the actual heights with their estimated heights. Finally, they will graph the estima...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-ordinary-man
