Intermediate Algebra 1 Alignment to Common Core HS Algebra II (Bridging Document) Semester: 1 Quarter: 1 Essential Questions (DRAFT) 1. What situation will produce a function versus a relation? 2. What is the purpose of writing a function in multiple forms? What information can I gain from the various forms? 3. What are the characteristics of a graph? How do I use a graph to identify characteristics of a function and translate the information to the function notation? (common characteristics and making connections among all function types – do you want the functions listed here?) 4. How does a function's domain and range provide vital information regarding the context of the problem and its solutions? 5. What does a solution look like? (this is an appropriate place to start the conversation about the connections between domain and discrete and continuous, and range to determine an extraneous solution.) California Common Core High School Algebra II (2013) Functions: Building Functions - Build new functions from existing functions 3. Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x) + k, k f(x), f(kx), and f(x + k) for specific values of k (both positive and negative); find the value of k given the graphs. Experiment with cases and illustrate an explanation of the effects on the graph using technology. Include recognizing even and odd functions from their graphs and algebraic expressions for them. Functions: Interpreting Functions - Analyze functions using different representations 7. Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. a. Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima. b. Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-defined functions, including step functions and absolute value functions. 8. Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function. a. Use the process of factoring and completing the square in a quadratic function to show zeros, extreme values, and symmetry of the graph, and interpret these in terms of a context. California Content Standard (2006) 24.0 Students solve problems involving functional concepts, such as composition, defining the inverse function and performing arithmetic operations on functions 9.0 Students demonstrate and explain the effect that changing a coefficient has on the graph of quadratic functions; that is, students can determine how the graph of a parabola changes as a, b, and c vary in the equation y = a(x-b)2 + c. 1.0 Students solve equations and inequalities involving absolute value. Notes Unit 1 Foundations for Functions connects with the Common Core Conceptual Category: Functions: Building Functions (F-BF) and Interpreting Functions (F-IF) The Unit titles come from the current Sweetwater pacing guide for Intermediate Algebra. They somewhat align with the units described in Appendix A: Designing High School Mathematics Based on the Common Core Standards: Unit 1: Polynomial, Rational and Radical Relationships Unit 3: Modeling with Functions Reminder, whether following the Integrated or Traditional Pathway the connections made here are not perfectly aligned with how Intermediate Algebra has been taught in our district over the last few years. The units from Appendix A referenced above are the closest match and indicate what our students will eventually need to master. Additionally, Appendix A is not a pacing guide, but a suggested organization of concepts. It is hoped that with this in mind, adjustments to instruction can be made to facilitate the transition to the common Core Standards. Intermediate Algebra 1 Alignment to Common Core HS Algebra II (DRAFT) Semester: 1 Quarter: 1 (Bridging Document) 5/31/2013 5/3/2017 Essential Questions (pending revision) Given the context of the problem, how do I make decisions about what solution(s) methods to use? What reasoning do I need in order to interpret the viability of the solution(s) (i.e. solution(s), no solution and infinite; real or complex numbers) for functions, including inequalities? How do I construct a viable argument to justify a solution(s) and solution method? California Common Core High School Algebra II (2013) Algebra: Reasoning with Equations and Inequalities - Represent and solve equations and inequalities graphically 12.

Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions. 6. Solve systems of linear equations exactly and approximately (e.g., with graphs), focusing on pairs of linear equations in two variables 8. (+) Represent a system of linear equations as a single matrix equation in a vector variable. 9.
