Curated OER
Sum of Infinite Geometric Series
Your mathematicians solve problems using geometric series in this pre-calculus lesson. They divide a unit square into very small pieces and identify the reasoning behind the sum of a series being less than one.
Curated OER
Spreading Doom
Students explore the pattern created by a sequence or series. In this geometry lesson, students relate the spread of a virus to the growth of exponential functions. They collect data as they analyze the sequence created by the growth.
Curated OER
Domain and Range of Exponential Functions
Have your class find the domain and range for each function. Students graph equations using the TI. They find all the x and y values as they relate to the domain and range.
Curated OER
Sequence Graphs
Investigate arithmetic and geometric sequences by using a graphing calculator to determine if a sequence is linear or exponential.
