1. Descartes' Rule

If you are not familiar with Descartes Rule of Signs to determine the possible number of real roots to any polynomial equation, then you will enjoy this activity.

2. Even Degree Polynomials

Are polynomials of even degree related to each other? Can you find similar characteristics among their graphs?

3. Explore Linear Equations

This eActivity will encourage you to experiment with the slope of a linear equation. As you experiment, you will learn!

4. Explore Number Solutions

Is there an easy way to determine the possible number of real solutions to a quadratic without viewing its graph? The answer is yes.

5. Explore a(x-h)2+k

This eActivity will encourage you to experiment with quadratic equations in "vertex form". It is simple and fun.

6. Explore ax2+bx+c

This eActivity will encourage you to experiment with quadratic equations in "standard form". It is simple and almost as much fun as the last one.

7. Factor with Graphs

Can a graph help you factor a quadratic expression? Maybe, but you can at least use the graph to give you hints.

8. Odd Degree Polynomials

Are polynomials of odd degree related to each other? Can you find similar characteristics among their graphs?
