CK-12 Foundation's Basic Algebra FlexBook is an introduction to the algebraic topics of functions, equations, and graphs for middle-school and high-school students.
This site teaches Structure in Algebraic Expressions to High Schoolers through a series of 3482 questions and interactive activities aligned to 26 Common Core mathematics skills.
Khan Academy learning modules include a Community space where users can ask questions and seek help from community members. Educators should consult with their Technology administrators to determine the use of Khan Academy learning modules in their classroom. Please review materials from external sites before sharing with students.
In this task students have to interpret expressions involving two variables in the context of a real world situation. All given expressions can be interpreted as quantities that one might study when looking at two animal populations.
This real world task requires students to answer questions about equations for calculating compound interest.
A tutorial as an introduction to polynomials. Basic terminology and simple algebraic manipulations. Offers discussions and practice exercises with answers and explanations.
Use real world examples to evaluate and solve expressions.
Students work with the concept of equality and balance to solve one and two-step algebraic equations.
Practicing math problems promotes great study habits. In this lesson, students will review various ways of writing and evaluating expressions.
Time to show off our skills Students will practice solving equations that is a percent problem.
Students will translate between the written form and algebraic form using correct mathematical notation.
Students use their knowledge of algebraic expressions and equations to write expressions and equations using appropriate math symbols.
Students use substitution to find the values of equations and expressions they wrote using appropriate math symbols.
Students use their knowledge of algebraic expressions and equations to write expressions and equations.
This task is for instructional purposes only and builds on ``Building an explicit quadratic function.''
The purpose of this task is to use finite geometric series to investigate an amazing mathematical object that might inspire students' curiosity. The Cantor Set is an example of a fractal.
This task asks students to perform computations involving complex numbers using the given information.
This task presents a real world application of finite geometric series. The context can lead into several interesting follow-up questions and projects. Many drugs only become effective after the amount in the body builds up to a certain level. This can be modeled very well with geometric series.
The CyberSquad uses algebra to figure out how many gleamers they need and how many power glows are produced by each gleamer as they must power up a Cyberspace ship in this video from Cyberchase. [1:43]
The primary purpose of this task is to illustrate certain aspects of the mathematics described in the A.SSE.1. The task has students look for structure in algebraic expressions related to a context, and asks them to relate that structure to the context. In particular, it is worth emphasizing that the task requires no algebraic manipulation from the students.
This is a standard problem phrased in a non-standard way. Rather than asking students to perform an operation, expanding, it expects them to choose the operation for themselves in response to a question about structure. The problem aligns with A-SSE.2 because it requires students to see the factored form as a product of sums, to which the distributive law can be applied.
