Students learn how to estimate the solutions to a quadratic equation using graphs.
As learning progresses, they model real-life problems graphically.
Differentiated Learning Objectives
- All students should be able to use graphical methods to solve the roots of a quadratic equation.
- Most students should be able to use a linear function to solve a quadratic equation graphically.
- Some students should be able to derive and solve the resulting quadratic equation from linear and quadratic graphs.
