a. Solve using tables, graphs, and algebraic properties.

Graphing and the Coordinate Plane	Lesson: Students learn basic ideas about graphing points on the coordinate plane.
Graphs and Functions	Lesson: Demonstrates the connections between formulas and graphs.
Conic Flyer	Activity: Manipulate different types of conic section equations on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph. Choose from vertical or horizontal parabola, circle, ellipse, and vertical or horizontal hyperbola.
Data Flyer	Activity: Enter a set of data points, then derive a function to fit those points. Manipulate the function on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph.
Function Flyer	Activity: A more advanced version of Slope Slider, this activity allows the manipulation of the constants and coefficients in any function thereby encouraging the user to explore the effects on the graph of the function by changing those numbers.

b. Interpret the constants and coefficients in the context of the problem.

Cartesian Coordinate System	Lesson: Introduces students to plotting points on the Cartesian coordinate system -- an alternative to "Graphing and the Coordinate Plane."
