In the Ball Bounce task, teams of three students collect real-time ball bounce data for two minutes to organize, display and use to form predictions. After collecting and organizing their data, students first observe how the data behave. Then they make predictions using data, scatterplots, or the equation of the curve of best fit to solve a practical problem. This task offers students collaborative experience in using mathematical models of linear functions.

Students research two variables about the car model they intend to purchase. They use Desmos to compare these same variables across five different car models. Students use analysis of bivariate data in order to decide which car makes sense to buy. Students prepare and share a summary statement and include desmos screen shots in order to justify their purchase. This task offers students experiences in making predictions, using data, scatterplots, or the equation of the curve of best fit for decision-making in a practical problem.

With your mouse, drag data points and their error bars, and watch the best-fit polynomial curve update instantly. You choose the type of fit: linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic. The reduced chi-square statistic shows you when the fit is good. Or you can try to find the best fit by manually adjusting fit parameters.

In this task, students decide which team wins the egg-launching contest by analyzing data from a table, graph and a verbal representation with a quadratic equation. In doing so, students analyze data, determine the equation of the curve of best fit in order to make predictions, and solve practical problems using models of quadratic functions.

In Zombie Attack, students will organize, display and analyze data to solve practical problems using models of exponential functions. Learners will use knowledge of transformations to write an equation, given the table and graph of an exponential function. In doing so, students will form connections between multiple representations of exponential functions for analysis, interpretation, and prediction.
