Functions are investigated graphically, numerically, symbolically and verbally in real world settings. Linear, quadratic and exponential functions are explored.
Technology is integrated into all aspects of the course, as appropriate.
Students communicate results in oral and written form. Creatively use mathematical and other problem solving strategies to formulate problems, to solve problems using multiple approaches, and to interpret results. Make mathematical connections by recognizing and creating linear, quadratic, and exponential models of nontrivial real world situations. Demonstrate mastery of linear and quadratic functions. Meet the prerequisites for the study of college-level mathematics.
