Outcomes

In this lesson you will

• apply the concepts of the section to a problem involving the fencing of gardens

By the end of this section students will be able to:

• demonstrate an understanding of patterns that are arithmetic, power, and geometric, and relate then to corresponding functions
• analyze tables and graphs to distinguish between linear, quadratic, and exponential relationships
• sketch graphs from descriptions, tables, and collected data
• determine the equation of a quadratic function using finite differences

Prerequisites

To be successful in this lesson, it would be helpful to know the following:

• find the quadratic equation form the second-level differences
• find the quadratic equation by solving a system of linear equations
