In Algebra for Students, students will learn about the power
of algebra as a tool for representing, analyzing and generalizing
situations, and will explore several functions, including linear,
quadratic and exponential. Real-world applications of algebra are
shown in multiple forms through tables, graphs and equations, and
common errors and misconceptions are highlighted. Students will also
learn how to translate verbal expressions to algebraic expressions
while considering the reasonableness of solutions within the context
of the situation.

#V6731, $39.95
We hear inequality phrases like "more than,"
"less than" and "in between" all the time.
Join our hosts as in the world of algebra as they explore what
these expressions mean and what it means to analyze inequalities.
Within the context of real-life scenarios, discover simple and
compound inequalities, linear inequalities and systems of linear
inequalities. See how an inequality is graphed—on a number line
if there is only one variable and on a coordinate plane if it
is a linear inequality. Students will also learn about solving
inequalities while being warned of common errors. With thoughtful
explanations and animated graphs, students will enjoy this carefully
paced video program. Part of the multivolume Algebra for Students
series. A teacher's guide is included and available online.

#V6732, $39.95
Exponential phenomena are at work all around us—from
population growth to how long it takes for a bouncing
ball to come to rest. This carefully paced video program
will not only introduce students to the rules of exponents
and scientific notation, but engage them in a thoughtful
exploration of exponential functions in table, graph and
equation form. Students will see how these functions
compare to linear ones and watch how exponential growth
functions grow at a tremendous rate over time while
exponential decay functions decrease incredibly over
time. Because of exponents, big numbers get bigger and
small numbers get even smaller. Part of the multivolume
Algebra for Students series. A teacher's guide is
included and available online.

#V6733, $39.95
Functions and relations are important aspects of algebra.
By showing how two sets of numbers are related, you can
represent all types of real-world phenomena— from Ferris
wheels and roller coasters to the paths of baseballs,
rockets, radio waves and more. Join our hosts as they
build tables and map diagrams and graphs—all of them
different ways to represent functions and relations.
Discover the vertical line test— a visual way of
determining whether or not a relation is a function.
It’s everything from domain and range to the famed f(x)
and more in this engaging program designed to help
students expand their understanding of algebra. Part
of the multivolume Algebra for Students series. A
teacher's guide is included and available online.

#V6734, $39.95
Linear relationships are all around us. Join our hosts
as they tackle linear equations and slope—two topics
in algebra that go hand-in-hand. Through a series of
real-world scenarios, see how a table of values, a
graph and a formula or equation can be used to describe
a linear equation. Investigate the graphs of linear
equations and see how they change, depending on the
slope of the line. Using tools such as the slope formula
and slope-intercept form, students will explore slope
with the constant reminder that, if the relationship
between two sets of numbers is linear, you know you’ve
got the graph of a line—and you know you can calculate
slope. Part of the multivolume Algebra for Students
series. A teacher's guide is included and available online.

Patterns are used to make predictions every day. From
developing a formula that represents a real-world scenario
to building a table of values based on a formula to graphing
the input-output values of a formula to exploring the
relationship between the graph of a formula and its
inverse patterns, formulas are extremely important in
the world of algebra. Join our host as they encounter
a variety of situations in daily life that can be
expressed by using patterns and formulas. Part of
the multivolume Algebra for Students series. A
teacher's guide is included and available online.

#V6736, $39.95
When you are diving into algebra, it is a good idea to
know how to recognize and work with polynomials. Join
our hosts as they introduce students to the vocabulary
associated with polynomials and demonstrate how to write
and simplify polynomial expressions. Using real-world s
cenarios, see how they find the zeroes of a polynomial
by factoring and using handy technology such as the
graphing calculator. It’s everything from FOIL to
quadratic trinomials to splitting the middle term
and more in this lively, math-packed program designed
to help students expand their understanding of algebra.

The Pythagorean Theorem is a powerful tool which people
have used for centuries—and at its heart is the right
triangle. Join our hosts as they investigate the
relationship between a right triangle’s legs and
hypotenuse, uncover the history of the Pythagorean
Theorem and show how it can be applied to situations
in the real world. Students will see how this theorem
can be used to find the length of an unknown side, be
warned of a common mistake made when working with square
roots and discover that the Distance Formula is an
application of the Pythagorean Theorem on the coordinate
plane. Part of the multivolume Algebra for Students
series. A teacher's guide is included and available online.

#V6738, $39.95
Whether it's football, fireworks or finding the zeroes,
it is important to know how to recognize quadratic
functions by their parabolas and squared terms. Join
our hosts on an in-depth exploration of this topic as
they compare quadratic and linear functions, discover
the characteristics of parabolas and explore different
strategies for finding the roots of functions. You’ll
be sure to encounter the quadratic formula—a guaranteed
way to find the roots of a function. Within the context
of real-world scenarios and with the support of animated
graphs and tables, see how algebra comes to life in this
engaging and carefully paced video program. Part of the
multivolume Algebra for Students series. A teacher's
guide is included and available online.

Join our hosts as they tackle many real-life problems
by using systems of linear equations! See how these systems
can have zero, one or many common solutions. In the process
of finding these solutions—by graphing, substitution or
elimination—students will discover the three possible
situations associated with graphs of these systems, be
warned of some common pitfalls and determine when to
choose substitution over elimination. With the support
of animated graphs and tables, see how algebra comes to
life in this engaging and carefully paced video program.

The "power" of algebra. What does that mean?
Students will discover how algebra provides a way to
organize patterns and represent real-life scenarios as
well as abstract ones so that they can think about any
situation. See how algebraic expressions can be a
combination of variables, constants, coefficients
and operator symbols, and learn how to write, simplify
and evaluate these expressions by combining like terms
and applying the order of operations. Join our hosts as
they tackle problems in the world around them, help
students to avoid common pitfalls such as treating a
variable like a label and see how they use the Properties
of Equality to isolate the variable and solve a simple
equation. Part of the multivolume Algebra for Students
series. A teacher's guide is included and available
online.
