Mathematics in Context: Ups and Downs

Dear Student,
Welcome to Ups and Downs. In this unit, you will look at situations
that change over time, such as blood pressure or the tides of an
ocean. You will learn to represent these changes using tables,
graphs, and formulas.
Graphs of temperatures and tides show up-and-down movement,
but some graphs, such as graphs for tree growth or melting ice,
show only upward or only downward movement.
As you become more familiar with graphs and the changes that
they represent, you will begin to notice and understand graphs
in newspapers, magazines, and advertisements.
During the next few weeks, look for graphs and statements about
growth, such as “Fast-growing waterweeds in lakes become a
problem.” Bring to class interesting graphs and newspaper articles
and discuss them.
Telling a story with a graph can help you understand the story.
Sincerely,
The Mathematics in Context Development Team


Thanks
