North Carolina Standard Course of Study
Technical Mathematics II
Data Analysis and Probability
Competency Goal 2: The learner will use relations and functions to solve problems.
Lessons (2)
Demonstrates the connections between formulas, graphs and words.
Introduces students to the vertical line test for graphs of functions.
Activities (7)
Enter a set of data points, then derive a function to fit those points. Manipulate the function on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph.
Create graphs of functions and sets of ordered pairs on the same coordinate plane. This is like a graphing calculator with advanced viewing options.
Enter a set of data points and a function or multiple functions, then manipulate those functions to fit those points. Manipulate the function on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph.
Students compare multiple independent variables as predictors of one dependent variable. Students explore correlation and lines of best-fit.
Graph recursive functions by defining f(0)=C and defining f(n) based on f(n-1).
Plot a bivariate data set, determine the line of best fit for their data, and then check the accuracy of your line of best fit.
Students create linear inequalities and systems of linear inequalities on a coordinate plane. This is like a graphing calculator with advanced viewing options.
