Get Algebra And Modeling

Mathematical modeling is the art of translating problems from an application area into tractable mathematical formulations whose theoretical and numerical analysis provides insight, answers, and guidance useful for the originating application.

Description: Algebra 1A/1B is a two year course which will cover all topics in a traditional one year Algebra 1 course. ... Algebra 1A covers solving and graphing linear equations and inequalities, reading and interpreting word problems, and understanding functional relationships using graphs, charts, and tables.

A function can serve as a simple kind of mathematical model, or a simple piece of a larger model. Remember that a function is just a rule, f, that expresses the dependency of one variable quantity, y, on another variable quantity, x.

A Verbal Model is a word equation that represents a real situation. In other words, it uses words to describe ideas and math symbols to relate the words. No numbers are used in verbal models, but math symbols are important and the model must be true!

A Mathematical Model tries to copy how a real world thing works using equations. It may not be perfect but can still be useful: we can use the equations to try new things, such as predict what happens when sizes, temperatures, prices, etc change. Mathematical Models.

remove parentheses by multiplying factors. use exponent rules to remove parentheses in terms with exponents. combine like terms by adding coefficients. combine the constants.

An algebraic model uses algebra to describe a real-world situation. We can use algebraic models to solve problems. By taking the information given in a problem, we can represent quantities using variables and then set up an equation using those variables. This equation is our algebraic model.

Course Description: Challenging students' mastery of learned algebraic skills, Algebra A & B provides in-depth coverage of writing, solving, and graphing a variety of equations and inequalities, as well as linear systems.
