What is Log?
In this activity, students will solve simple logarithmic equations and verify solutions using the corresponding exponential equations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-log
NASA - Diving Down Deep
In this activity, students will explore a method for adding air to a gas cylinder diving tank, and determine the amount of gas needed by a support diver during a diving session.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--diving-down-deep
Bouncing Ball
In this activity, students examine the motion of a ball as it falls under the influence of gravity. The parameters in the vertex form of the quadratic equation Y = A(X - H)2 + K are determined to describe the behavior of a ball bounce.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/bouncing-ball
Sound of the Bouncing Ball
In this activity, students will develop a mathematical model that is based on the time interval of the sound the ball makes on impact between consecutive bounces. They will then use the model to predict how long the ball would (theoretically) bounce.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sound-of-the-bouncing-ball

Exploring Hyperbolas
Students will explore the hyperbola by investigating links between its standard equation form and its graph. They will also discover the center and the focal lengths of the hyperbola as well as see applications of the hyperbola in the real world.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-hyperbolas
Motorcycle Jump
Students will explore quadratic functions in the form of a motorcycle jumping off of a ramp. Students will maximize the height of the jump and the airtime of the jump.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motorcycle-jump
Exploring Higher Degree Polynomials
Investigate graphical and algebraic representations of a polynomial function and its linear factors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-higher-degree-polynomials
Getting into the Swing (Pendulum)
In this activity, students will explore how a pendulum moves by placing a pendulum bob directly across from a CBR™ 2 motion sensor. Distance and time data are collected for several swings. The graph of the data can be modeled by a sinusoidal function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/getting-into-the-swing_ns
Getting into the Swing (Pendulum) - 84

The graph of the data can be modeled by a sinusoidal function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/getting-into-the-swing_84
Cooling Down - 84
In this activity, students will collect data as a heated temperature sensor cools for three minutes, graph the cooling curve, and determine a model to fit the temperature versus time data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cooling-down_84

Function or Relation?
In this activity, students will use graphs and lists to determine if sets of data represent functions or relations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/function-or-relation_1
Maximizing Your Efforts
Students write an objective function and graph the system of inequalities to find the maximum profit from selling two types of game players.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/maximizing-your-efforts_1
Graphs of Rational Functions 1
Students relate the graph of a rational function to the graphs of the polynomial functions of its numerator and denominator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/rational-functions1
Graphs of Rational Functions 2
