Instructional Ideas

• Let the class work in small groups to attempt the application problems

Classroom Considerations

• There is not enough room on the sheet to show work
• Bottom section of the worksheet may have an inappropriate line that you can easily whiteout before copying

Pros

• Simple answer key is provided

Cons

• Two of the application questions are exponential functions that may not be applicable when assigning this problem during a quadratics lesson
