Graphing Relationships

In this activity, students explore information about a graph based on the first and second derivatives. They learn that a function's derivative is positive when the function increases and negative when the function decreases. They learn that the second derivative is positive when the graph is con...

The Dirty Dawg Salon

In this activity, students will work through a scenario of a business venture involving washing dogs. They will translate fixed and variable costs to a cost function and make a decision about how much to charge to wash per dog. When the break-even point is found, students must interpret it to ans...

Application of Slopes

Students will apply the concept of slope to a real-world problem about building a staircase. They will use the slope ratio, vertical change over horizontal change, to find the slope of staircase. Then, students will recognize how a positive or negative slope applies in a real-world situation.

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...
