Properties of Logarithms

Logarithms are just another way of writing exponents. Just like exponents, logarithms have properties that allow you to simplify expressions and solve equations. In this activity, students Will discover some of these properties by graphing and confirm them with algebra.

Solving Systems of Linear Equations with Row Reductions to Echelon Form on Augmented Matrices

This activity shows the user how to interpret a system of linear equations as an augmented matrix, row reduce the matrix to echelon form, and interpret the output to give a unique solution, generate infinite solutions, or conclude no solutions exist. The activity also shows how to check unique so...

Difference Between Two Proportions

Students use confidence intervals to estimate the difference of two population proportions. First they find the intervals by calculating the critical value and the margin of error. Then, they use the 2-propZInterval command. Students find confidence intervals for differences in proportions in rea...

Influence and Outliers

In this activity, students will identify outliers that are influential with respect to the least-squares regression line. Students will describe the role of the location of a point relative to the other data in determining whether that point has influence on the least-squares regression line.

Make the Basket

Students will use parametric equations to model two physical situations: making a free throw (basketball) and hitting a home run (baseball). Students will begin exploring the models by using sliders to change to the angle and velocity of the shot or hit. They will then move the time slider to see...

Infinite Geometric Series

In this activity, students will explore infinite geometric series. They will consider the effect of the value for the common ratio and determine whether an infinite geometric series converges or diverges. Students will numerically analyze infinite geometric series using spreadsheets.

Math Man On The Slopes

In this activity, students will practice identifying slopes with informal pictures, and can self-check their understanding with one of the measurement tools. The students will also identify the slope and intercept of a given graph and will choose the correct equation in a multiple choice format.

Vernier - What Causes the Seasons?

In this activity, students' will explore how the tilt of the earth's axis results in different amounts of solar radiation at different times of the year, causing seasons. They will simulate the earth's warming using a light bulb that will shine on a Temperature Probe attached to a globe, and inve...
