Outcomes

In this lesson you will

• use technology to find the curve of best fit for the data in the project
• find the underlying quadratic equations that models the situation
• extend the garden the problem to include circular gardens

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:

• the concepts covered in the first two sections
