Your teachers who were participants and their students, which is you! 14. Celsius, Fahrenheit, slopes, lines 2 Mathematics Topics • Cartesian coordinate system • Slope • function tables • line graphs • slope intercept form of linear equation • Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature • graphing calculator charts and graphs 6 Partial Objectives from the 2007 Mississippi Mathematics Objectives (Revised) • 6th grade 2b (Complete a function table based on a given rule), 2e (Describe a rule for a function table using symbols), 5a (Construct, interpret, and explain line graphs) • 7th grade 2a (Recognize, describe, and state the rule of generalized numerical and geometric patterns using tables, words, and symbols), 2b (Solve equations that represent algebraic and real-world problems using multiple methods), 2d (Complete a function table based on a given rule and vice versa) • Pre-Algebra 2c (Solve and check equations using one variable), 2e (Graph linear equations using multiple methods including t-tables and slope-intercept), 2f (Given a linear graph, identify its slope as positive, negative, undefined, or zero, and interpret slope as rate of change), 2g (Determine slope, x-intercept, and y-intercept from a graph and/or equation in slope-intercept or standard form) • Algebra 1 2a (Solve, check, and graph multi-step linear equations in one variable), 2e (Graph and analyze linear functions), 2f (Use algebraic and graphical methods to solve systems of linear equations in real-world situations) 3a (Apply the concept of slope to determine if lines in a plane 7 are parallel) A mini lesson on slopes and lines • “Stacking Cups” from Navigations through • • • • • • • Algebra in Grades 6-8, National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Two points determine a line and the slope Slope intercept form y = mx + b y=x (our favorite line?)

For each of the kinds of cups it makes, the company needs to know the measurements of cartons that can hold 50 cups. Your task is to provide this information. 10 1. Make a table and record in it the measurement data for different types of cups. Cup type A # of cups n Stacked Ht. of cups (cm) H Cup type B # of cups n Stacked Ht. of cups (cm) H 11 - 2. Make a coordinate graph of each data set. 12 3. Describe the variables being investigated and the relationship between the variables. 4. Identify the units of measure for the dependent variable H, the vertical intercept, the rate of change, and the independent variable n. 13 5. Predict how tall a stack of 50 cups would be and explain how you made your prediction. 6. Compare the results for the different kinds of cups, noting similarities and differences. 7. For each kind of cup, recommend the inside dimensions of a carton that would hold a stack of 50 cups. 14 A mini lesson on slopes and lines • • • • • • • • Two points determine a line Two points determine the slope Slope intercept form y = mx + b y=x (our favorite line?)
