**Students will understand how to represent and solve an equation graphically** 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). **Students will understand how to represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and independent variables.** 9. Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that changes in relationship to one another; write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation. || What is the relationship between the fist and the height measurement? What is the best way this information should be organized? How can this data be illustrated? What does the x-axis represent? Clarify what the scale, min/max should we use? What does the y-axis represent? Clarify what the scale, min/max should we use? Does this data demonstrate if there would be a line of best fit for these points? Extrapolate the equation for this line? Analyzing the information of the assignment, evaluate what the height of the Jolly Green Giant if his fist size is 24 inces? || Using two quantities from a real-world problem that changes in relationship to the other can be organized using ordered pairs. Using ordered pairs students can plot their data on a Cartesian plane. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">It is possible to find a curve or line of best fit for their plotted points. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">If there is a line of best fit, an equation can be found. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Using this equation, it is possible to estimate the height of the Green Giant. || <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Key terms-ordered pairs, plot, Cartesian plane, line of best fit, equation, x-axsis, y-axsis, y-intercept, <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Mathematics is a big part of our world <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">It is possible to find the estimation of an unknown value if one value is known and using a line of best fit <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Students will be able to …. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Organize ordered pairs from data collected <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Plot points on a coordinate plan <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Find a line of best fit <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Find an equation from a line <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Find an x value if a y value is known, or v.s. || <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Performance Tasks: <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Students will take the measurements of their peers and record them on a sheet of paper. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Once this data is collected the students will arrange the data in a set of ordered pair. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">The students will then plot these points on a Cartesian plane. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">The students will discover if there is a line of best fit or a curve for these plotted points. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">If there is a line, the students will use the information gathered and find the equation for the line of best fit. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">Using the equation the students will then find the height of the Green Giant using their equation and then comparing their answer to their graph. || <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 11pt;">**Students to record in their math journals what they learned from this assignment** ||
