This unit bundles student expectations that address the exploration of linear and nonlinear data and their representations and relationships. Data includes models of linear, quadratic, exponential, and inverse functions. Functional relationships are the basis of algebra and will be the focus of Algebra 1 throughout the course. The exploration of functions through data collection and analysis is a foundation for this study and is introduced at the beginning of Algebra 1.
Students will learn about the Cartesian Coordinate Plane.
Students will learn some vocabulary used in algebra.
Students will learn how to work with function notation.
Students will identify if a graph is a direct or inverse variation.
Students will write an inverse variation equation.
