Advanced Precalculus Proficiency Targets
-
- 9.2.1 Understand the concept of function, and identify important features of functions and other relations using symbolic and graphical methods where appropriate.
- 9.2.2 Recognize linear, quadratic, exponential and other common functions in real-world and mathematical situations; represent these functions with tables, verbal descriptions, symbols and graphs; solve problems involving these functions, and explain results in the original context.
- 9.2.3 Generate equivalent algebraic expressions involving polynomials and radicals; use algebraic properties to evaluate expressions.
- 9.2.4 Represent real-world and mathematical situations using equations and inequalities involving linear, quadratic, exponential and nth root functions. Solve equations and inequalities symbolically and graphically. Interpret solutions in the original context.
- 9.4.1 Display and analyze data; use various measures associated with data to draw conclusions, identify trends and describe relationships.
- 9.4.2 Explain the uses of data and statistical thinking to draw inferences, make predictions and justify conclusions.
- 9.4.3 Calculate probabilities and apply probability concepts to solve real world and mathematical problems.
