This is a remix of a task to help students think about an expression for a function as built up out of simple operations on the variable, and understand the domain in terms of values for which each operation is invalid (e.g., dividing by zero or taking the square root of a negative number).

Students match features of exponential and logarithmic functions and then consider which features could change with a transformation. Features include: domain, range, intervals of increasing/decreasing, x- and y- intercepts, end behavior, and asymptotes.

Finding extrema and intervals increasing and decreasing for a function Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

Students will use a draggable point to investigate intervals of increase and decrease and then practice writing and fining intervals.
