Algebra Applications

Graph Linear Equations

• Use programs like Graph2Go or Fit2Go from Math4Mobile to turn your phone into a graphing calculator!

• Check your graph against the one on your phone to assure accuracy!

Discover Linear Applications!• Use your camera

phone to take photos or videos of things that happen at a constant rate!

• Take photos of different rates of flow out of a water faucet and try to represent them graphically!

Acceleration!• Try to find real

world examples of objects that accelerate!

• Record data on how fast they accelerate!

• Try to graphically represent that acceleration!

Discover Number Lines!• Discover number

lines in your own community!

• Take pictures of real world examples like football fields, rulers, and tape measures!

Document Correlations!• Try to find real world

examples of negative correlations, like time spent watching T.V. vs. Grades!

• Find examples of positive correlations, like time spent practicing vs. number of free throws made!

Remember!

• Remember that Algebra is all around you!
