This task has students approach a function via both a recursive and an algebraic definition, in the context of a famous game of antiquity that they may have encountered in a more modern form. The content underlying the algebra is the sum of the first n natural numbers (also known as the nth triangular number.

Total solar eclipses are quite rare, so much so that they make the news when they do occur. This task explores some of the reasons why. Solving the problem is a good application of similar triangles

The typical system of equations or inequalities problem gives the system and asks for the graph of the solution. This task turns the problem around. It gives a solution set and asks for the system that corresponds to it. The purpose of this task is to give students a chance to go beyond the typical problem and make the connections between points in the coordinate plane and solutions to inequalities and equations. Students have to focus on what the graph is showing.

Sal solves a linear system with 3 variables by representing it with an augmented matrix and bringing the matrix to reduced row-echelon form. Gaussian Elimination is the method, reduced row echelon is just the final result.

The purpose of this task is to have students compute and interpret an expected value, and then use the information provided by the expected value to make a decision. The task is designed to encourage students to communicate their findings in a non-technical form in context.
The purpose of this task is to allow students to demonstrate an …
The purpose of this task is to allow students to demonstrate an ability to construct boxplots and to use boxplots as the basis for comparing distributions. The solution should directly compare the center, spread, and shape of the two distributions and comment on the high outlier in the northbound data set.
