February 9, 2008

Objective: YWBAT interpret how key elements of rational functions may translate into in the real world context

Agenda: 1. Examine the following average cost function and interpret the horizontal asymptote? How does the "asymptotic behavior" fit in this real world context? 2. Examine the following population function and interpret the horizontal asymptote? How does the "asymptotic behavior" fit in this real world context? 3. Examine the following concentration function and interpret the horizontal asymptote? How does the "asymptotic behavior" fit in this real world context?

HW: Application (Average Cost)

HW: Application (transistors and ponds)

February 13, 2008

Objective: YWBAT interpret rates represented as rational functions

Agenda: 1. What does the graph of a rate mean? How do you interpret the dependent and independent variables? 2. When solving a rational expression that involves a rate what does the answer mean? 3. What do the various asymptotic behaviors indicate about the rate? 4. How might one get an expression for a rate? What are some common expressions for rate?
