Mister Marx Math Adventures #008 | Algebra I | Graphs & Table of Values
👋 Welcome back, math learners! This is Episode #008 of #MisterMarxMathAdventures, and today we're revisiting the plant growth problem from Episode #004, but with a twist – we're solving it through graphing! 📖 Discover more math wonders at 🔗 MisterMarx.com 📚📐🧮
Special shout-out to William Meylan on TikTok for their insightful suggestion!
In today's installment, we'll explore:
A real-world word problem from Pennsylvania’s Department of Education’s Algebra 1 2017 Keystone Exam.
The journey of two plants, discovering the day they both reach the same height using algebraic concepts. 🌱✨
The Topics at Hand:
Graphical Analysis: Dive into the world of graphs to solve the same plant growth problem we tackled in Episode #004.
Intersection Points: Understand how to plot the growth of two plants and use the intersection point to find our solution..
Mathematical Representations: Learn the significance of different mathematical approaches as we compare the graphical method to the tabular method from our previous adventure.
Why This Adventure?
Visual Learning: Gain insights from graphs as you would from tables.
Intersection Revelation: Watch the solution unfold where the lines meet.
Method Diversity: Explore various algebraic problem-solving strategies.
