Shark Frenzy
Students examine equations in the family of linear functions which are of the form y = m x, each of which correspond to a different family of sharks. They relate the slope to the ratio of the shark’s fork length to its total length. When comparing two sharks of the same length, students con...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shark-frenzy
