SmartGraphs: Algebra App
Learn algebra using 19 graph-related activities on four key topics: linear equations, quadratic equations, transformations of functions and exponential functions. Apply algebraic concepts using both real-world problems and "pure" math.
Linear Equations
Explore how linear equations describe the relationship between two variables forming a straight line when plotted on a graph.
Quadratic Equations
Learn how to use quadratic equations which describe the relationship between two variables forming a parabola when plotted on a graph.
Transformations of Functions
Practice using function transformations, small changes to an equation that translate, dilate or reflect the function's graph.
Exponential Functions
Discover how exponential functions, in which a variable appears in the exponent, are used to model real-world situations.
Teacher Resources
Based on extensive research, SmartGraphs: Algebra is designed for students studying Algebra 1 or Algebra 2. Activities are aligned with the Common Core. Lesson plan and student assessment documents are also available on the SmartGraphs app support website. A brief guide to using activities is also available here.
About SmartGraphs
SmartGraphs are digital objects that "know" about themselves and provide scaffolding to students to help them learn about graphs and the concepts graphs convey, in mathematics, science and other subjects. Learn more »
