They will use this information to compute future "good" and "b...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/biorhythms-and-sinusoidal-functions
Given a graph...what is the function?
Understanding how to associate a function of a parabola with its graph. Students will explore varies functions and determine its graph. They will then use what they learned to predicate where a particular graph of a different function will appear on the coordinate plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/given-a-graph---what-is-the-function
Building curves
Students approach performing the basic operations on the polynomials from a graphical perspective. Given the graphs of two functions, they plot points that lie on the graph of the sum of the functions and draw conclusions about its behavior. Next, they calculate a regression to fit the points the...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/building-curves
LRAM_RRAM_MRAM -- A Graphical Investigation of how area under a curve is approx with rectangles.
This activity is designed for the student to investigate how area bounded by a curve and the x-axis can be approximated with areas of rectangles using LRAM, RRAM, MRAM.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lram_rram_mram--a-graphical-investigation-of-how-area-under-a-curve-is-approx-with-rectangles
Evaluating Logarithms
In problem 1, students explore the logarithm (base 10) function and compare the functions y = 10x and y = log 10x first through a table of values, then through a graph. In problem 2, students explore logarithms with other bases via tables, graphs, the calculator application and the change of base...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/evaluating-logarithms
Here's Looking At Euclid
Students first use the familiar prime factorization method to calculate the GCD and LCM of two numbers. Second, they apply Euclid’s algorithm, an iterative process for finding the GCD, in conjunction with a formula for the LCM given the GCD. In order to use the algorithm, they must first grasp th...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/heres-looking-at-euclid
Polly, Want Some Division?
In this activity, students will use polynomial calculations to determine quotients and remainders when performing polynomial division using CAS commands. The Remainder Theorem is introduced and applied to identify roots or zeros and to determine function values. Graphs are incorporated to visuall...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polly-want-some-division
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
