Question

ALGEBRA 1 HELP PLEASE, I will award a medal for the best answer!

A. Contact your partner if you are choosing to do this project collaboratively. Look at the polynomial below.

y = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d

Graph this using any graphing technology of your choice. However, replace the variables a, b, c, and d with numbers. For example, you could graph y = 2x3 + 3x2 – x + 2. Observe the graphed outcomes together (or independently if working alone). This is an investigation process to see what types of curves and lines you and your partner can produce with this equation.

Answer 1

C. Use a drawing program (or draw by hand and scan) to recreate your roller coaster, and for each section, provide the equations you and your partner decided upon.

You may view a sample rollercoaster to get an idea of what is expected for parts A – C.
D. Using complete sentences, describe the theme of your roller coaster (example: monsters), and give your instructor details as to what your roller coaster would look like, feel like, and what makes your roller coaster unique.
