The goal of this task is to study the geometry of reflections in the context of paper folding.

This task addresses solving systems of linear equations exactly, and provides a simple example of a system with three equations and three unknowns.

Open Middle provides math problems that have a closed beginning, a closed end, and an open middle. This means that there are multiple ways to approach and ultimately solve the problems. Open middle problems generally require a higher Depth of Knowledge than most problems that assess procedural and conceptual understanding.

The purpose of this task is to investigate the meaning of the definition of function in a real-world context where the question of whether there is more than one output for a given input arises naturally. In more advanced courses this task could be used to investigate the question of whether a function has an inverse.

Students will use a function that models a relationship between two quantities to figure out how a pizza restaurant's promotion that prices pizza based on a function of time causes the cost to fluctuate.

This task gives the graph of the height of a ball over time and asks for a story that could be represented by this graph. The graph is the mathematical representation of a situation and features of the graph correspond to specific moments in the story the graph tells. The purpose of the task is to get away from plotting graphs by focusing on coordinate points and instead looking at the bigger picture a qualitative view.

This task is designed to get at a common student confusion between the independent and dependent variables. This confusion often arises in situations like (b), where students are asked to solve an equation involving a function, and confuse that operation with evaluating the function.

A group of four friends want to go to Polygon Paradise Park next summer. Polygon Paradise Park is a small amusement park open from 9am to 9pm. The park has ten rides of different types and thrill levels. The Trapezoid Show, a location with several different performances throughout the day, offers a circus acrobatics show, a magic show, and evening fireworks. The Games building has both arcade and carnival games. Food options include the Triangle Restaurant, the hot dog stand, and the ice cream cart. The hot dog stand and the ice cream cart are “take away” options, while the Triangle Restaurant requires 30-60 minutes to sit at a table and enjoy a meal. The restrooms (WC) are centrally located in the park for easy access. Visitors can purchase souvenirs in the gift shop located near the park entrance.

In this task students construct and compare linear and exponential functions and find where the two functions intersect.

The purpose of this instructional task is to provide an opportunity for students to use and interpret the meaning of a negative exponent in a functional relationship.

The next Olympic Games are being hosted by Paris, France and will be held 26 July - 11 August 2024. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) wants to prepare by ordering enough medals and flags for the medal ceremonies. The IOC wants to make sure they have enough medals and flags for all the ceremonies to avoid being embarrassed. The IOC also does not want to waste money, however, by ordering too many medals and flags that will not be used. Therefore, the IOC has asked your team at MidMCM Olympic Consultants to provide models they can use to determine how many medals and flags they will need.

Have you ever been traveling down a highway when you see one or both of these signs?

In some cases, the road simply loses a lane as it enters a less traveled section. In other cases, the road narrows because of construction or roadwork. When this happens on a fairly busy highway, it may be a recipe for road rage*.
