Connecting Factors and Zeros
Students will determine if a quadratic formula is factorable, then they will factor the equation, set each factor equal to 0, and solve for X. (Categories include linear functions, graphing, and factoring.)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/connecting-factors-and-zeros
Asymptotes & Zeros
Students relate the graph of a rational function to the graphs of the polynomial functions of its numerator and denominator. Students graph these polynomials one at a time and identify their y-intercepts and zeros. Using the handheld's manual manipulation functions, students can manipulate the gr...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/asymptotes--zeros_1
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
Factoring Composite Numbers
In this activity, students will review terms associated with prime factors, as well as practice factoring into a factor tree and the prime factorization into exponent form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/factoring-composite-numbers
Taylor Polynomials
Students learn to define a Taylor polynomial approximation to a function f of degree n about a point x = a. They also learn to graph convergence of Taylor polynomials. They use Taylor polynomials to approximate function values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/taylor-polynomials_1
