The following TEKS are covered in this resource:
Readiness Standards:
A.5(A) solve linear equations in one variable, including those for which the application of the distributive property is necessary and for which variables are included on both sides
A.10(E) factor, if possible, trinomials with real factors in the form ax2 + bx + c, including perfect square trinomials of degree two
A.11(B) simplify numeric and algebraic expressions using the laws of exponents, including integral and rational exponents
Supporting Standards:
A.2(B) write linear equations in two variables in various forms, including y = mx + b, Ax + By = C, and y – y1 = m(x – x1), given one point and the slope and given two points
A.3(A) determine the slope of a line given a table of values, a graph, two points on the line, and an equation written in various forms, including y = mx + b, Ax + By = C, and y – y1 = m(x – x1)
A.6(B) write equations of quadratic functions given the vertex and another point on the graph, write the equation in vertex form (f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k), and rewrite the equation from vertex form to standard form (f(x) = ax2 + bx + c)
A.9(E) write, using technology, exponential functions that provide a reasonable fit to data and make predictions for real‐world problems
A.10(A) add and subtract polynomials of degree one and degree two
A.10(D) rewrite polynomial expressions of degree one and degree two in equivalent forms using the distributive property
A.12(B) evaluate functions, expressed in function notation, given one or more elements in their domains
