Unit 4 Learning Targets

 

Big Idea Use power models to understand situations and solve problems  
Target 4-A Describe how the area and volume of figures change when the dimensions of the figure change. sampl
Target 4-B

Understand power models of the form y = ax2.

  • graph equations of this form
  • describe how changes in the value of a affect the graph of y = ax2
  • use such models to solve problems.
