FUNCTION AND ALGEBRA CONCEPTS

The student produces evidence that demonstrates understanding of function and algebra concepts as follows (Follow links to Interactivate lessons):

• The student discovers, describes and generalizes patterns, including linear, exponential, and simple quadratice relationships -- those of the form f(n) = c n², including c=Pi -- and represents them with variables and expressions .
