Outcomes
In this lesson you will
- compare stopping distances of vehicles on various surfaces
By the end of this section students will be able to:
- model real-world phenomena using quadratic functions
- sketch graphs from descriptions, tables, and collected data
- analyze scatter plots, and determine and apply the equations for curves of best fit, using appropriate technology
- describe and translate between graphical, tabular, written, and symbolic representations of quadratic relationships
- analyze tables and graphs to distinguish between linear, quadratic, and exponential relationships
- describe and interpret domains and ranges using set notation
Prerequisites
To be successful in this lesson, it would be helpful to know the following:
- regression analysis to find the equation for the curve of best fit
- use symbols to represent or model real-world relationships
- use common differences to classify non-linear data
