How Many? (Precalculus)
Students will be presented a situation in which they must use linear programming to determine the optimum production level to maximize profits.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-many-precalculus
Helicopter Bungee Jump
In this activity, students will observe a simulation of a record breaking bungee jump, consider a mathematical model of the height as a function of time, and take the derivative to determine points of interest like the minimum height, maximum velocity, acceleration, and maximum jerk. Students wil...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/helicopter-bungee-jump_1
Exploring Linear Equations
Students will enter "life expectancy" data into lists and set up scatter plots and trace the scatter plot to select two points. Secondly, they will use the points to calculate slope and write a linear equation. Finally, they will use the Transformation Graphing App to fit the data using a linea...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-equations_2
Exploring Linear Relationships -- Stacking Cups and Walking Rates
In this activity, students will explore several examples of linear relationships. They will use a table to organize data that they collect and will make graphs to display that data. Students are prompted to write equations and interpret slope as a rate of change.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-relationships--stacking-cups-and-walking-rates
