Lessons (2)

Introduces students to arithmetic and geometric sequences. Students explore further through producing sequences by varying the starting number, multiplier, and add-on.

Audiences: Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Discrete, Geometry, Number and Operations

Related Topics: addition, arithmetic, arithmetic sequences, geometric sequences, graph, iteration, linear functions, multiplication, multiplier, negative number, pattern, positive number, pre-calculus, recursion, recursive functions, sequences

Introduction to various algorithms for solving single-variable, linear equations.

Audiences: Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Algebra

Related Topics: addition, algorithm, coefficient, fractions, inverse, multiplication, variable

Activities (4)

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.

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Graphs, Modeling, Statistics, Trigonometry

Related Topics: algebra, cartesian coordinate, coordinate, coordinate plane, coordinate system, cosecant, cosine, cotangent, curve fitting, data plot, deviations, exponential, exponents, function properties, functions, graph, grouping, integers, intervals, inverse, linear equations, linear functions, logarithm, multiplication, parabola, polynomial, positive part of the operand, pre-calculus, range, secant, sine, slope, tangent, trigonometry

This activity helps you understand how to balance an equation. You input the term and the operation. The activity uses that term and operates on both sides of the equation. It then displays the resulting equation. Equation Solver is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
