6 OnTRACK Algebra I: Properties and Attributes of Functions
Students will learn how to use the properties and attributes of functions.
Gravitational Force
This resource provides flexible alternate or additional learning activities for students learning about the gravitational attraction between objects of different masses at different distances. IPC TEKS (4)(F)
Using Logical Reasoning to Prove Conjectures About Quadrilaterals
Given conjectures about quadrilaterals, the student will use deductive reasoning and counterexamples to prove or disprove the conjectures.
Solving Quadratic Equations Using Algebraic Methods
Given a quadratic equation, the student will solve the equation by factoring, completing the square, or by using the quadratic formula.
Quadratics: Connecting Roots, Zeros, and x-Intercepts
Given a quadratic equation, the student will make connections among the solutions (roots) of the quadratic equation, the zeros of their related functions, and the horizontal intercepts (x-intercepts) of the graph of the function.
Using the Laws of Exponents to Solve Problems
Given problem situations involving exponents, the student will use the laws of exponents to solve the problems.
Formulating Systems of Equations (Verbal → Symbolic)
Given verbal descriptions of situations involving systems of linear equations the student will analyze the situations and formulate systems of equations in two unknowns to solve problems.
Solving Quadratic Equations Using Graphs
Given a quadratic equation, the student will use graphical methods to solve the equation.
Writing Equations to Describe Functional Relationships (Verbal → Equation)
Given a problem situation represented in verbal form, students will write an equation that can be used to represent the situation.
Writing Inequalities to Describe Relationships (Verbal → Symbolic)
Given a problem situation represented in verbal form, students will write an inequality that can be used to represent the situation.
Determining the Meaning of Intercepts
Given algebraic, tabular, and graphical representations of linear functions, the student will determine the intercepts of the function and interpret the meaning of intercepts within the context of the situation.
Predicting the Effects of Changing y-Intercepts in Problem Situations
Given verbal, symbolic, numerical, or graphical representations of problem situations, the student will interpret and predict the effects of changing the y-intercept in the context of the situations.
Solving Linear Inequalities
The student will represent linear inequalities using equations, tables, and graphs. The student will solve linear inequalities using graphs or properties of equality, and determine whether or not a given point is a solution to a linear inequality.
Conservation of Momentum
This resource was created to support TEKS IPC(4)(E).
Given background information, students will be able to trace the historical development of the civil rights movement in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, and describe the roles of political organizations that promoted civil rights.
Given background information, students will be able to identify economic, social, and political issues surrounding the Gilded Age. Students will identify significant historical figures associated with the Gilded Age.
The student understands the causes of the Great Depression.
Given primary and secondary sources of information about selected New Deal measures (e.g., the creation of the Civilian Conservation Corps or the passage of the Agricultural Adjustment Act), students will analyze how these measures affected various regions of the United States.
Given background information, students will identify the social and economic impact of World War II on the American home front, such as the Great Depression, rationing, and increased opportunity for women and minority employment.
Students will identify ways in which Cold War tensions were intensified.
