Cluster:
Represent and solve equations and inequalities graphically. [Combine polynomial, rational, radical, absolute value, and exponential functions.]

Standard:
Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = f(x) and y = g(x) intersect are the solutions of the equation f(x) = g(x); find the solutions approximately, e.g., using technology to graph the functions, make tables of values, or find successive approximations. Include cases where f(x) and/or g(x) are linear, polynomial, rational, absolute value, exponential, and logarithmic functions. *

Cluster:
Understand solving equations as a process of reasoning and explain the reasoning. [Simple radical and rational]

Standard:
Solve simple rational and radical equations in one variable, and give examples showing how extraneous solutions may arise.

Cluster:
Solve equations and inequalities in one variable.

Standard:
Solve one-variable equations and inequalities involving absolute value, graphing the solutions and interpreting them in context. CA

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

Standard:
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. *
