A2.AAPR: : Arithmetic with Polynomials and Rational Expressions

A2.AAPR.1: : Add, subtract, and multiply polynomials and understand that polynomials are closed under these operations.

A2.ACE.2: : Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between quantities. Graph the equations on coordinate axes using appropriate labels, units, and scales.

A2.ACE.3: : Use systems of equations and inequalities to represent constraints arising in real-world situations. Solve such systems using graphical and analytical methods, including linear programing. Interpret the solution within the context of the situation. (Limit to linear programming.)

A2.AREI.4: : Solve mathematical and real-world problems involving quadratic equations in one variable.

A2.AREI.4.b: : Solve quadratic equations by inspection, taking square roots, completing the square, the quadratic formula and factoring, as appropriate to the initial form of the equation. Recognize when the quadratic formula gives complex solutions and write them as a + bi for real numbers a and b.

A2.ASE.3: : Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the quantity represented by the expression.

A2.ASE.3.b: : Determine the maximum or minimum value of a quadratic function by completing the square.

A2.ASE.3.c: : Use the properties of exponents to transform expressions for exponential functions.

A2.FBF: : Building Functions

A2.FBF.1: : Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities.

A2.FBF.1.a: : Write a function that models a relationship between two quantities using both explicit expressions and a recursive process and by combining standard forms using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to build new functions.

A2.FBF.1.b: : Combine functions using the operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to build new functions that describe the relationship between two quantities in mathematical and real-world situations.

A2.FBF.2: : Write arithmetic and geometric sequences both recursively and with an explicit formula, use them to model situations, and translate between the two forms.

A2.FBF.3: : Describe the effect of the transformations kf (x), f(x) + k, f(x + k), and combinations of such transformations on the graph of y = f (x) for any real number k. Find the value of k given the graphs and write the equation of a transformed parent function given its graph.

A2.FIF: : Interpreting Functions

A2.FIF.3: : Define functions recursively and recognize that sequences are functions, sometimes defined recursively, whose domain is a subset of the integers.

A2.FIF.4: : Interpret key features of a function that models the relationship between two quantities when given in graphical or tabular form. Sketch the graph of a function from a verbal description showing key features. Key features include intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, constant, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior and periodicity.

A2.FIF.5: : Relate the domain and range of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes.

A2.FIF.6: : Given a function in graphical, symbolic, or tabular form, determine the average rate of change of the function over a specified interval. Interpret the meaning of the average rate of change in a given context.

A2.FIF.7: : Graph functions from their symbolic representations. Indicate key features including intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior and periodicity. Graph simple cases by hand and use technology for complicated cases.

A2.FIF.8: : Translate between different but equivalent forms of a function equation to reveal and explain different properties of the function.

A2.FIF.8.b: : Interpret expressions for exponential functions by using the properties of exponents.

A2.FIF.9: : Compare properties of two functions given in different representations such as algebraic, graphical, tabular, or verbal.

A2.FLQE: : Linear, Quadratic, and Exponential

A2.FLQE.1: : Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions or exponential functions by recognizing situations in which one quantity changes at a constant rate per unit interval as opposed to those in which a quantity changes by a constant percent rate per unit interval.

A2.FLQE.1.b: : Recognize situations in which a quantity grows or decays by a constant percent rate per unit interval relative to another.

A2.FLQE.2: : Create symbolic representations of linear and exponential functions, including arithmetic and geometric sequences, given graphs, verbal descriptions, and tables.

A2.FLQE.5: : Interpret the parameters in a linear or exponential function in terms of the context.

A2.NCNS: : Complex Number System

A2.NCNS.1: : Know there is a complex number 𝑖 such that i² = −1, and every complex number has the form a + bi with a and b real.

A2.NCNS.7: : Solve quadratic equations in one variable that have complex solutions.
