Instruction and Practice for Common Core Mathematics Standards

Common Core Mathematics Standards, pdf version

The United States Common Core State Standards Initiative seeks to align diverse state curricula.
The standards express knowledge and skills needed for high school graduates to succeed in college and careers.
Additional mathematics needed for advanced courses such as calculus, advanced statistics, or discrete mathematics is indicated by (+) in the standards below.

The initiative is sponsored by the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO).

This page lists the Grade 8 and high school common core mathematics standards, and then provides links to my web exercises containing relevant material. Of course, concepts are often covered in many different exercises; I have tried to provide the most relevant links.

Grade 8

The High School Common Core Mathematics Standards are organized into six conceptual categories:

Number and Quantity
Algebra
Functions
Modeling: speciﬁc modeling standards are indicated by a star symbol (*) below
Geometry
Statistics and Probability

GRADE 8 (8)
NUMBER SYSTEM (NS)
Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers
8-NS.1	Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion which repeats eventually into a rational number.	Deciding if a Fraction is a Finite or Infinite Repeating Decimal
8-NS.2	Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., $\,\pi^2\,$). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of $\,\sqrt{2}\,,$ show that $\,\sqrt{2}\,$ is between $\,1\,$ and $\,2\,,$ then between $\,1.4\,$ and $\,1.5\,,$ and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.
EXPRESSIONS AND EQUATIONS (EE)
Work with radicals and integer exponents
8-EE.1	Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical expressions. For example, $\,3^2 \times 3^{-5} = 3^{-3} = \frac{1}{3^3} = \frac{1}{27}\,.$	Exponents Practice with Order of Operations Basic Exponent Practice with Fractions Practice with $\,x^mx^n = x^{m+n}\,$ Practice with $\,(x^m)^n = x^{mn}\,$ Practice with $\,x^m/x^n = x^{m-n}$ Practice with $\,x^{-p} = 1/x^p$ One-step Exponent Law Practice Multi-step Exponent Law Practice Practice with Radicals Approximating Radicals Scientific Notation
8-EE.2	Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form $\,x^2 = p\,$ and $\,x^3 = p\,,$ where $\,p\,$ is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that $\,\sqrt{2}\,$ is irrational.
8-EE.3	Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of $\,10\,$ to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as $\,3\times 10^8\,$ and the population of the world as $\,7\times 10^9\,,$ and determine that the world population is more than $\,20\,$ times larger.
8-EE.4	Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimal and scientiﬁc notation are used. Use scientiﬁc notation and choose units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use millimeters per year for seaﬂoor spreading). Interpret scientiﬁc notation that has been generated by technology.
Understand the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations
8-EE.5	Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. For example, compare a distance-time graph to a distance-time equation to determine which of two moving objects has greater speed.	Similarity, Ratios, and Proportions Getting bigger? Getting smaller? Introduction to the Slope of a Line Practice with Slope Graphing Lines Finding Equations of Lines
8-EE.6	Use similar triangles to explain why the slope $\,m\,$ is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation $\,y = mx\,$ for a line through the origin and the equation $\,y = mx + b\,$ for a line intercepting the vertical axis at $\,b\,.$
Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations
8-EE.7	Solve linear equations in one variable. Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, inﬁnitely many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by successively transforming the given equation into simpler forms, until an equivalent equation of the form $\,x = a\,,$ $\,a = a\,,$ or $\,a = b\,$ results (where $\,a\,$ and $\,b\,$ are different numbers). Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms.	the Addition Property of Equality the Multiplication Property of Equality Solving Simple Linear Equations with Integer Coefficients Solving More Complicated Linear Equations with Integer Coefficients Solving Linear Equations Involving Fractions Solving Linear Equations, All Mixed Up
8-EE.8	Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations. Understand that solutions to a system of two linear equations in two variables correspond to points of intersection of their graphs, because points of intersection satisfy both equations simultaneously. Solve systems of two linear equations in two variables algebraically, and estimate solutions by graphing the equations. Solve simple cases by inspection. For example, $\,3x + 2y = 5 \text{ and } 3x + 2y = 6\,$ have no solution because $\,3x + 2y\,$ cannot simultaneously be $\,5\,$ and $\,6\,.$ Solve real-world and mathematical problems leading to two linear equations in two variables. For example, given coordinates for two pairs of points, determine whether the line through the ﬁrst pair of points intersects the line through the second pair.	Introduction to Systems of Equations Solving Systems using Substitution Solving Systems using Elimination Simple Word Problems Resulting in a System of Equations
FUNCTIONS (F)
Deﬁne, evaluate, and compare functions
8-F.1	Understand that a function is a rule that assigns to each input exactly one output. The graph of a function is the set of ordered pairs consisting of an input and the corresponding output.¹ ¹ Function notation is not required in Grade 8.	Introduction to Functions
8-F.2	Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change.
8-F.3	Interpret the equation $\,y = mx + b\,$ as deﬁning a linear function, whose graph is a straight line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function $\,A = s^2\,$ giving the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph contains the points $\,(1,1)\,,$ $\,(2,4)\,$ and $\,(3,9)\,,$ which are not on a straight line.
Use functions to model relationships between quantities
8-F.4	Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two $\,(x,y)\,$ values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
8-F.5	Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.
GEOMETRY (G)
Understand congruence and similarity using physical models, transparencies, or geometry software
8-G.1	Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reﬂections, and translations: Lines are taken to lines, and line segments to line segments of the same length. Angles are taken to angles of the same measure. Parallel lines are taken to parallel lines.	Similarity, Ratios, and Proportions Triangle Congruence Interior and Exterior Angles in Polygons More on Exterior Angles in Triangles
8-G.2	Understand that a two-dimensional ﬁgure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the ﬁrst by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent ﬁgures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them.
8-G.3	Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reﬂections on two-dimensional ﬁgures using coordinates.
8-G.4	Understand that a two-dimensional ﬁgure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the ﬁrst by a sequence of rotations, reﬂections, translations, and dilations; given two similar two- dimensional ﬁgures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity between them.
8-G.5	Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.
Understand and apply the Pythagorean Theorem
8-G.6	Explain a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse.	The Pythagorean Theorem The Distance Formula
8-G.7	Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine unknown side lengths in right triangles in real-world and mathematical problems in two and three dimensions.
8-G.8	Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to ﬁnd the distance between two points in a coordinate system.
Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving volume of cylinders, cones, and spheres
8-G.9	Know the formulas for the volumes of cones, cylinders, and spheres and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY (SP)
Investigate patterns of association in bivariate data
8-SP.1	Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association.
8-SP.2	Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally ﬁt a straight line, and informally assess the model ﬁt by judging the closeness of the data points to the line.
8-SP.3	Use the equation of a linear model to solve problems in the context of bivariate measurement data, interpreting the slope and intercept. For example, in a linear model for a biology experiment, interpret a slope of $\,1.5 \text{ cm}/\text{hr}\,$ as meaning that an additional hour of sunlight each day is associated with an additional $\,1.5 \text{ cm}\,$ in mature plant height.
8-SP.4	Understand that patterns of association can also be seen in bivariate categorical data by displaying frequencies and relative frequencies in a two-way table. Construct and interpret a two-way table summarizing data on two categorical variables collected from the same subjects. Use relative frequencies calculated for rows or columns to describe possible association between the two variables. For example, collect data from students in your class on whether or not they have a curfew on school nights and whether or not they have assigned chores at home. Is there evidence that those who have a curfew also tend to have chores?
8-SP.5	Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association.

NUMBER AND QUANTITY (N)
THE REAL NUMBER SYSTEM (RN)
Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents
N-RN.1	Explain how the definition of the meaning of rational exponents follows from extending the properties of integer exponents to those values, allowing for a notation for radicals in terms of rational exponents. For example, we define $\,5^{1/3}\,$ to be the cube root of $\,5\,$ because we want $\,(5^{1/3})^3 = 5^{(1/3)3}\,$ to hold, so $\,(5^{1/3})^3\,$ must equal $\,5\,.$	Writing Radicals in Rational Exponent Form Writing Rational Exponents as Radicals Practice with Rational Exponents Practice with Radicals Approximating Radicals
N-RN.2	Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents.
Use properties of rational and irrational numbers
N-RN.3	Explain why the sum or product of two rational numbers is rational; that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational; and that the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational.
QUANTITIES* (Q)
Reason quantitatively and use units to solve problems
N-Q.1	Use units as a way to understand problems and to guide the solution of multi-step problems; choose and interpret units consistently in formulas; choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays.	Tables of Unit Conversion Information Classifying Units as Length, Time, Volume, Weight/Mass Practice with Unit Abbreviations Practice with Unit Names Practice with Unit Conversion Information One-Step Conversions Multi-Step Conversions Rate Problems Work Problems Significant Figures
N-Q.2	Deﬁne appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling.
N-Q.3	Choose a level of accuracy appropriate to limitations on measurement when reporting quantities.
THE COMPLEX NUMBER SYSTEM (CN)
Perform arithmetic operations with complex numbers
N-CN.1	Know there is a complex number $\,i\,$ such that $\,i^2 =\, -1\,,$ and every complex number has the form $\,a + bi\,$ with $\,a\,$ and $\,b\,$ real.	Complex Numbers Arithmetic with Complex Numbers
N-CN.2	Use the relation $\,i^2 =\, -1\,$ and the commutative, associative, and distributive properties to add, subtract, and multiply complex numbers.

Represent complex numbers and their operations on the complex plane
N-CN.4 (+)	Represent complex numbers on the complex plane in rectangular and polar form (including real and imaginary numbers), and explain why the rectangular and polar forms of a given complex number represent the same number.
N-CN.5 (+)	Represent addition, subtraction, multiplication, and conjugation of complex numbers geometrically on the complex plane; use properties of this representation for computation. For example, $\,(–1 + \sqrt{3}\,i)^3 = 8\,$ because $\,–1 + \sqrt{3}\, i\,$ has modulus $\,2\,$ and argument $\,120^{\circ}\,.$
N-CN.6 (+)	Calculate the distance between numbers in the complex plane as the modulus of the difference, and the midpoint of a segment as the average of the numbers at its endpoints.
Use complex numbers in polynomial identities and equations
N-CN.7	Solve quadratic equations with real coefficients that have complex solutions.	The Quadratic Formula
N-CN.8 (+)	Extend polynomial identities to the complex numbers. For example, rewrite $\,x^2 + 4\,$ as $\,(x + 2i)(x – 2i)\,.$
N-CN.9 (+)	Know the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra; show that it is true for quadratic polynomials.
VECTOR AND MATRIX QUANTITIES (VM)
Represent and model with vector quantities
N-VM.1 (+)	Recognize vector quantities as having both magnitude and direction. Represent vector quantities by directed line segments, and use appropriate symbols for vectors and their magnitudes (e.g., $\,\bf v\,,$ $\,\|\bf v\|\,,$ $\,\\|\bf v\\|\,,$ $v$). [Note from Dr. Burns: the length (magnitude) of the vector $\,{\bf v}\,$ might be denoted in all these ways: $\,v = \|{\bf v}\| = \\|{\bf v}\\|\,.$ ]
N-VM.2 (+)	Find the components of a vector by subtracting the coordinates of an initial point from the coordinates of a terminal point.
N-VM.3 (+)	Solve problems involving velocity and other quantities that can be represented by vectors.
Perform operations on vectors
N-VM.4 (+)	Add and subtract vectors. Add vectors end-to-end, component-wise, and by the parallelogram rule. Understand that the magnitude of a sum of two vectors is typically not the sum of the magnitudes. Given two vectors in magnitude and direction form, determine the magnitude and direction of their sum. Understand vector subtraction $\ \bf v – w\ $ as $\ \bf v + (–w)\ $, where $\ \bf –w\ $ is the additive inverse of $\ \bf w\ $, with the same magnitude as $\ \bf w\ $ and pointing in the opposite direction. Represent vector subtraction graphically by connecting the tips in the appropriate order, and perform vector subtraction component-wise.
N-VM.5 (+)	Multiply a vector by a scalar. Represent scalar multiplication graphically by scaling vectors and possibly reversing their direction; perform scalar multiplication component-wise, e.g., as $\,c(v_x,v_y) = (cv_x, cv_y)\,.$ Compute the magnitude of a scalar multiple $\ c\bf v\ $ using $\ \\|c{\bf v}\\| = \|c\|v\,.$ Compute the direction of $\,c{\bf v}\,$ knowing that when $\,\|c\|v \ne 0\,,$ the direction of $\,c{\bf v}\,$ is either along $\,\bf v\,$ (for $\,c > 0\,$) or against $\,{\bf v}\,$ (for $\,c < 0\,$). [Note from Dr. Burns: see N-VM.1 for notation.]
Perform operations on matrices and use matrices in applications
N-VM.6 (+)	Use matrices to represent and manipulate data, e.g., to represent payoffs or incidence relationships in a network.	Introduction To Matrices Basic Arithmetic with Matrices Multiplying Matrices
N-VM.7 (+)	Multiply matrices by scalars to produce new matrices, e.g., as when all of the payoffs in a game are doubled.
N-VM.8 (+)	Add, subtract, and multiply matrices of appropriate dimensions.
N-VM.9 (+)	Understand that, unlike multiplication of numbers, matrix multiplication for square matrices is not a commutative operation, but still satisﬁes the associative and distributive properties.
N-VM.10 (+)	Understand that the zero and identity matrices play a role in matrix addition and multiplication similar to the role of $\,0\,$ and $\,1\,$ in the real numbers. The determinant of a square matrix is nonzero if and only if the matrix has a multiplicative inverse.
N-VM.11 (+)	Multiply a vector (regarded as a matrix with one column) by a matrix of suitable dimensions to produce another vector. Work with matrices as transformations of vectors.
N-VM.12 (+)	Work with $\,2 \times 2\,$ matrices as transformations of the plane, and interpret the absolute value of the determinant in terms of area.

ALGEBRA (A)
SEEING STRUCTURE IN EXPRESSIONS (SSE)
Interpret the structure of expressions
A-SSE.1	Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context.* Interpret parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, and coefﬁcients. Interpret complicated expressions by viewing one or more of their parts as a single entity. For example, interpret $\,P(1+r)^n\,$ as the product of $\,P\,$ and a factor not depending on $\,P\,.$	Expressions Versus Sentences Going from a Sequence of Operations to an Expression Going from an Expression to a Sequence of Operations Recognizing Products and Sums; Identifying Factors and Terms Writing Expressions in the Form A² Factoring a Difference of Squares Translating Simple Mathematical Phrases
A-SSE.2	Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see $\,x^4 – y^4\,$ as $\,(x^2)^2 – (y^2)^2\,,$ thus recognizing it as a difference of squares that can be factored as $\,(x^2 – y^2)(x^2 + y^2)\,.$
Write expressions in equivalent forms to solve problems
A-SSE.3	Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the quantity represented by the expression. Factor a quadratic expression to reveal the zeros of the function it deﬁnes. Complete the square in a quadratic expression to reveal the maximum or minimum value of the function it deﬁnes. Use the properties of exponents to transform expressions for exponential functions. For example the expression $\,1.15^t\,$ can be rewritten as $\,(1.15^{1/12})^{12t} \approx 1.012^{12t}\,$ to reveal the approximate equivalent monthly interest rate if the annual rate is $\,15\%\,.$	Basic Concepts Involved in Factoring Trinomials Factoring $\,x^2 + bx + c\,,$ $\,c > 0\,$ Factoring $\,x^2 + bx + c\,,$ $\,c < 0\,$ Factoring Trinomials, All Mixed Up Quadratic Functions and the Completing the Square Technique
A-SSE.4	Derive the formula for the sum of a ﬁnite geometric series (when the common ratio is not $\,1\,$), and use the formula to solve problems. For example, calculate mortgage payments.*
ARITHMETIC WITH POLYNOMIALS AND RATIONAL EXPRESSIONS (APR)

A-APR.1	Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.	Introduction to Polynomials
Understand the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials
A-APR.2	Know and apply the Remainder Theorem: For a polynomial $\,p(x)\,$ and a number $\,a\,,$ the remainder on division by $\,x – a\,$ is $\,p(a)\,,$ so $\,p(a) = 0\,$ if and only if $\,(x – a)\,$ is a factor of $\,p(x)\,.$
A-APR.3	Identify zeros of polynomials when suitable factorizations are available, and use the zeros to construct a rough graph of the function deﬁned by the polynomial.
Use polynomial identities to solve problems
A-APR.4	Prove polynomial identities and use them to describe numerical relationships. For example, the polynomial identity $\,(x^2 + y^2)^2 = (x^2 – y^2)^2 + (2xy)^2\,$ can be used to generate Pythagorean triples. [Note from Dr. Burns: Choose $\,x \gt y\,,$ so that $\,x^2 - y^2\,$ is positive. For example, let $\,x=2\,$ and $\,y=1\,.$ Then $\,2xy = 4\,,$ $\,x^2 - y^2 = 3\,,$ $\,x^2 + y^2 = 5\,,$ and $\,3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2\,.$ ]
A-APR.5 (+)	Know and apply the Binomial Theorem for the expansion of $\,(x + y)^n\,$ in powers of $\,x\,$ and $\,y\,$ for a positive integer $\,n\,,$ where $\,x\,$ and $\,y\,$ are any numbers, with coefﬁcients determined for example by Pascal’s Triangle.¹ ¹ The Binomial Theorem can be proved by mathematical induction or by a combinatorial argument.
Rewrite rational expressions
A-APR.6	Rewrite simple rational expressions in different forms; write $\,\displaystyle \frac{a(x)}{b(x)}\,$ in the form $\displaystyle\,q(x) + \frac{r(x)}{b(x)}\,,$ where $\,a(x)\,,$ $\,b(x)\,,$ $\,q(x)\,,$ and $\,r(x)\,$ are polynomials with the degree of $\,r(x)\,$ less than the degree of $\,b(x)\,,$ using inspection, long division, or, for the more complicated examples, a computer algebra system.
A-APR.7 (+)	Understand that rational expressions form a system analogous to the rational numbers, closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division by a nonzero rational expression; add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational expressions.
CREATING EQUATIONS* (CED)
Create equations that describe numbers or relationships
A-CED.1	Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems. Include equations arising from linear and quadratic functions, and simple rational and exponential functions.	Simple Word Problems Resulting in Linear Equations Solving for a Particular Variable
A-CED.2	Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales.
A-CED.3	Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or non-viable options in a modeling context. For example, represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods.
A-CED.4	Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations. For example, rearrange Ohm's law $\,V = IR\,$ to highlight resistance $\,R\,.$
REASONING WITH EQUATIONS AND INEQUALITIES (REI)
Understand solving equations as a process of reasoning and explain the reasoning
A-REI.1	Explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step, starting from the assumption that the original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method.	Practice with the Mathematical Words and, or, and is equivalent to The Addition Property of Equality The Multiplication Property of Equality

A-REI.4	Solve quadratic equations in one variable. Use the method of completing the square to transform any quadratic equation in $\,x\,$ into an equation of the form $\,(x – p)^2 = q\,$ that has the same solutions. Derive the quadratic formula from this form. Solve quadratic equations by inspection (e.g., for $\,x^2 = 49\,$), taking square roots, completing the square, the quadratic formula and factoring, as appropriate to the initial form of the equation. Recognize when the quadratic formula gives complex solutions and write them as $\,a \pm bi\,$ for real numbers $\,a\,$ and $\,b\,.$
Solve systems of equations
A-REI.5	Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions.

A-REI.6	Solve systems of linear equations exactly and approximately (e.g., with graphs), focusing on pairs of linear equations in two variables.
A-REI.7	Solve a simple system consisting of a linear equation and a quadratic equation in two variables algebraically and graphically. For example, ﬁnd the points of intersection between the line $\,y = -3x,$ and the circle $\,x^2 + y^2 = 3\,.$
A-REI.8 (+)	Represent a system of linear equations as a single matrix equation in a vector variable.
A-REI.9 (+)	Find the inverse of a matrix if it exists and use it to solve systems of linear equations (using technology for matrices of dimension $\,3 \times 3\,$ or greater).
Represent and solve equations and inequalities graphically
A-REI.10	Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions plotted in the coordinate plane, often forming a curve (which could be a line).

A-REI.11	Explain why the $x$-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations $\,y = f(x)\,$ and $\,y = g(x)\,$ intersect are the solutions of the equation $\,f(x) = g(x)\,$; ﬁnd the solutions approximately, e.g., using technology to graph the functions, make tables of values, or ﬁnd successive approximations. Include cases where $\,f(x)\,$ and/or $\,g(x)\,$ are linear, polynomial, rational, absolute value, exponential, and logarithmic functions.*
A-REI.12	Graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half-plane (excluding the boundary in the case of a strict inequality), and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes.

FUNCTIONS (F)
INTERPRETING FUNCTIONS (IF)
Understand the concept of a function and use function notation
F-IF.1	Understand that a function from one set (called the domain) to another set (called the range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range. If $\,f\,$ is a function and $\,x\,$ is an element of its domain, then $\,f(x)\,$ denotes the output of $\,f\,$ corresponding to the input $\,x\,.$ The graph of $\,f\,$ is the graph of the equation $\,y = f(x)\,.$	Introduction to Functions Introduction to Function Notation More Practice with Function Notation Introduction to Recursion and Sequences Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences
F-IF.2	Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context.
F-IF.3	Recognize that sequences are functions, sometimes deﬁned recursively, whose domain is a subset of the integers. For example, the Fibonacci sequence is deﬁned recursively by $\,f(0) = f(1) = 1\,,$ $\,f(n+1) = f(n) + f(n-1)\,$ for $\,n \ge 1\,.$
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context
F-IF.4	For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity.*	Domain and Range of a Function Graphs of Functions Basic Models You Must Know Average Rate of Change
F-IF.5	Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. For example, if the function $\,h(n)\,$ gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble $\,n\,$ engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function.*
F-IF.6	Calculate and interpret the average rate of change of a function (presented symbolically or as a table) over a speciﬁed interval. Estimate the rate of change from a graph.*
Analyze functions using different representations
F-IF.7	Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.* Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima. Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-deﬁned functions, including step functions and absolute value functions. Graph polynomial functions, identifying zeros when suitable factorizations are available, and showing end behavior. (+) Graph rational functions, identifying zeros and asymptotes when suitable factorizations are available, and showing end behavior. Graph exponential and logarithmic functions, showing intercepts and end behavior, and trigonometric functions, showing period, midline, and amplitude.	Graphing Lines Quadratic Functions and the Completing the Square Technique Basic Models You Must Know Introduction to Polynomials Introduction to Logarithmic Functions Introduction to Exponential Functions
F-IF.8	Write a function deﬁned by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function. Use the process of factoring and completing the square in a quadratic function to show zeros, extreme values, and symmetry of the graph, and interpret these in terms of a context. Use the properties of exponents to interpret expressions for exponential functions. For example, identify percent rate of change in functions such as $\,y = (1.02)^t\,,$ $\,y = (0.97)^t\,,$ $\,y = (1.01)^{12t}\,,$ $\,y = (1.2)^{t/10}\,,$ and classify them as representing exponential growth or decay.
F-IF.9	Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the larger maximum.
BUILDING FUNCTIONS (BF)
Build a function that models a relationship between two quantities
F-BF.1	Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities.* Determine an explicit expression, a recursive process, or steps for calculation from a context. Combine standard function types using arithmetic operations. For example, build a function that models the temperature of a cooling body by adding a constant function to a decaying exponential, and relate these functions to the model. (+) Compose functions. For example, if $\,T(y)\,$ is the temperature in the atmosphere as a function of height, and $\,h(t)\,$ is the height of a weather balloon as a function of time, then $\,T(h(t))\,$ is the temperature at the location of the weather balloon as a function of time.	Introduction to Recursion and Sequences Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences Composition of Functions

Advanced Set Concepts Basic Probability Concepts More Probability Concepts Probability Tree Diagrams
S-CP.2	Understand that two events $\,A\,$ and $\,B\,$ are independent if the probability of $\,A\,$ and $\,B\,$ occurring together is the product of their probabilities, and use this characterization to determine if they are independent.
S-CP.3	Understand the conditional probability of $\,A\,$ given $\,B\,$ as $\,\frac{P(A \text{ and } B)}{P(B)}\,,$ and interpret independence of $\,A\,$ and $\,B\,$ as saying that the conditional probability of $\,A\,$ given $\,B\,$ is the same as the probability of $\,A\,,$ and the conditional probability of $\,B\,$ given $\,A\,$ is the same as the probability of $\,B\,.$
S-CP.4	Construct and interpret two-way frequency tables of data when two categories are associated with each object being classiﬁed. Use the two-way table as a sample space to decide if events are independent and to approximate conditional probabilities. For example, collect data from a random sample of students in your school on their favorite subject among math, science, and English. Estimate the probability that a randomly selected student from your school will favor science given that the student is in tenth grade. Do the same for other subjects and compare the results.
