Standard:
Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling. *

Standard:
Choose a level of accuracy appropriate to limitations on measurement when reporting quantities.*

Cluster:
Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials. [Polynomials that simplify to quadratics]

Standard:
Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.

Cluster:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Quadratic]

Standard:
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. *

Cluster:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Quadratic]

Standard:
Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. *

Cluster:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Quadratic]

Standard:
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. *

Cluster:
Analyze functions using different representations. [Linear, exponential, quadratic, absolute value, step, piecewise-defined]

Standard:
Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. * Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima. *

Cluster:
Analyze functions using different representations. [Linear, exponential, quadratic, absolute value, step, piecewise-defined]

Standard:
Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. * Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-defined functions, including step functions and absolute value functions. *

Cluster:
Analyze functions using different representations. [Linear, exponential, quadratic, absolute value, step, piecewise-defined]

Standard:
Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function. Use the process of factoring and completing the square in a quadratic function to show zeros, extreme values, and symmetry of the graph, and interpret these in terms of a context.
