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.

Standard:
Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function. Use the properties of exponents to interpret expressions for exponential functions. For example, identify percent rate of change in functions such as y = (1.02)^t, y = (0.97)^t, y = (1.01)^12t, and y = (1.2)^t/10, and classify them as representing exponential growth or decay.

Cluster:

Standard:
Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the larger maximum.

Cluster:
Explain volume formulas and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
Give an informal argument for the formulas for the circumference of a circle, area of a circle, volume of a cylinder, pyramid, and cone. Use dissection arguments, Cavalieri’s principle, and informal limit arguments.

Cluster:
Explain volume formulas and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
Use volume formulas for cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres to solve problems. *

Cluster:
Visualize relationships between two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects.

Standard:
Know that the effect of a scale factor k greater than zero on length, area, and volume is to multiply each by k, k^2, and k^3, respectively; determine length, area and volume measures using scale factors. CA

Cluster:
Visualize relationships between two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects.

Standard:
Verify experimentally that in a triangle, angles opposite longer sides are larger, sides opposite larger angles are longer, and the sum of any two side lengths is greater than the remaining side length; apply these relationships to solve realworld and mathematical problems. CA

Cluster:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Emphasize selection of appropriate models.]

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. [Emphasize selection of appropriate models.]

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

Cluster:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Emphasize selection of appropriate models.]

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. *
