Unit 4 Learning Targets

 

Big Idea

Power models help us understand situations and solve problems

Target 4-A Describe how the area and volume of figures change when the dimensions of the figure change.
Target 4-B

Describe how changes in the value of a affect the graphs of y = ax2, y = ax3, and y = a/x.

Target 4-C

Use technology to graph models of the form y = ax2 + bx + c and identify important features of the graphs.

Target 4-D Use power models to solve problems.
Target 4-E Solve quadratic equations using graphs and tables.
Target 4-F Solve equations involving simple use of powers algebraically.
Target 4-G Simplify expressions involving radicals and exponents.
