PRR.M.A2HS.10: : Know and apply the Remainder Theorem: For a polynomial p(x) and a number a, the remainder on division by x – a is p(a), so p(a) = 0 if and only if (x – a) is a factor of p(x).

(e.g., Represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods.)

MF.M.A2HS.26: : Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations. (e.g., Rearrange Ohm’s law V = IR to highlight resistance R.) While functions will often be linear, exponential, or quadratic the types of problems should draw from more complex situations than those addressed in Algebra I.

3.2: : Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of a context.

MF.M.A2HS.27: : For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity.

MF.M.A2HS.28: : Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. (e.g., If the function h(n) gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble n engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function.)

MF.M.A2HS.29: : Calculate and interpret the average rate of change of a function (presented symbolically or as a table) over a specified interval. Estimate the rate of change from a graph.

3.3: : Analyze functions using different representations.

3.4: : Build a function that models a relationship between two quantities.

MF.M.A2HS.33: : Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities. Combine standard function types using arithmetic operations. (e.g., Build a function that models the temperature of a cooling body by adding a constant function to a decaying exponential, and relate these functions to the model.)

3.5: : Build new functions from existing functions.

MF.M.A2HS.34: : Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x) + k, k f(x), f(kx), and f(x + k) for specific values of k (both positive and negative); find the value of k given the graphs. Experiment with cases and illustrate an explanation of the effects on the graph using technology. Include recognizing even and odd functions from their graphs and algebraic expressions for them.

MF.M.A2HS.35: : Find inverse functions. Solve an equation of the form f(x) = c for a simple function f that has an inverse and write an expression for the inverse. (e.g., f(x) = 2x³ or f(x) = (x + 1)/(x - 1) for x not equal to 1.)

3.6: : Construct and compare linear, quadratic, and exponential models and solve problems.

MF.M.A2HS.36: : For exponential models, express as a logarithm the solution to ab^(ct) = d where a, c, and d are numbers and the base b is 2, 10, or e; evaluate the logarithm using technology.

ICD: : Inferences and Conclusions from Data

4.1: : Summarize, represent, and interpret data on a single count or measurement variable.

ICD.M.A2HS.37: : Use the mean and standard deviation of a data set to fit it to a normal distribution and to estimate population percentages. Recognize that there are data sets for which such a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, and tables to estimate areas under the normal curve.

4.2: : Understand and evaluate random processes underlying statistical experiments.

ICD.M.A2HS.38: : Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population.

ICD.M.A2HS.39: : Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation. (e.g., A model says a spinning coin falls heads up with probability 0.5. Would a result of 5 tails in a row cause you to question the model?)

4.3: : Make inferences and justify conclusions from sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies.

ICD.M.A2HS.40: : Recognize the purposes of and differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies; explain how randomization relates to each.

ICD.M.A2HS.41: : Use data from a sample survey to estimate a population mean or proportion; develop a margin of error through the use of simulation models for random sampling.

ICD.M.A2HS.42: : Use data from a randomized experiment to compare two treatments; use simulations to decide if differences between parameters are significant.

ICD.M.A2HS.44: : Use probabilities to make fair decisions (e.g., drawing by lots or using a random number generator).

ICD.M.A2HS.45: : Analyze decisions and strategies using probability concepts (e.g., product testing, medical testing, and/or pulling a hockey goalie at the end of a game).
