Enduring Understandings:
Seeing the big picture makes things clearer.
Essential Questions:
Can a visual representation help you learn?
Can looking at the whole give insight to the pieces?
Can looking at the pieces give insight to the whole?
CCSS:
F.IF.4: For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features
of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a
verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts, intervals where the
function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative and end behavior.
F.IF.5: Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative
relationship it describes.
F.IF.7: Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in
simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. Graph linear functions and
show intercepts.
F.LE.1: Recognize situations in which one quantity changes at a constant rate per unit interval
relative to another.
A.CED.2: Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between
quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales.
A.REI.10: Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions
plotted in the coordinate plane, often forming a curve (which could be a line).
S.ID.7: Interpret the slope (rate of change) and the intercept (constant term) of a linear model
in the context of the data.
