Nine Weeks Focus
Skills/Standards	Number and Number Sense and Operations Standard Measurement Standard Geometry and Spatial Sense Standard 3. Analyze two-dimensional figures in a coordinate plane; e.g., use slope and distance formulas to show that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Patterns, Functions and Algebra Standard 1. Define function with ordered pairs in which each domain element is assigned exactly one range element. 2. Generalize patterns using functions or relationships (linear, quadratic and exponential), and freely translate among tabular, graphical and symbolic representations. 3. Describe problem situations (linear, quadratic and exponential) by using tabular, graphical and symbolic representations. Patterns, Functions and Algebra Standard (Continued) 4. Demonstrate the relationship among zeros of a function, roots of equations, and solutions of equations graphically and in words. 5. Describe and compare characteristics of the following families of functions: linear, quadratic and exponential functions; e.g., general shape, number of roots, domain, range, rate of change, maximum or minimum. 6. Write and use equivalent forms of equations and inequalities in problem situations; e.g., changing a linear equation to the slope-intercept form. 8. Find linear equations that represent lines that pass through a given set of ordered pairs, and find linear equations that represent lines parallel or perpendicular to a given line through a specific point. 13. Model and solve problems involving direct and inverse variation using proportional reasoning. 14. Describe the relationship between slope and the graph of a direct variation and inverse variation. 15. Describe how a change in the value of a constant in a linear or quadratic equation affects the related graphs. 3. Identify functions as linear or nonlinear based on information given in a table, graph or equation.(From Grade 8) Data Analysis and Probability Standard 2. Create a scatterplot for a set of bivariate data, sketch the line of best fit, and interpret the slope of the line of best fit. 1. Describe measures of center and range verbally, graphically and algebraically. (From Grade 10)
