B. 4 MATH INVOLVED: ◾
Students evaluate polynomial functions for inputs in their domains ◾ Each problem gives a set of 1 to 3 functions like this: -LCB- h (x) = -5 x-3, m (x) = 5x ² +22 x-1, j (x) = -3 x ² -5 x -RCB- And are asked to evaluate something like this: h ^ -1 -LRB--5) + m -LRB--3)- j (1) ◾ Inverse functions are used in linear cases randomly about 40 % of the time ◾ Students gain practice with exponent and integer laws (yes senior students still make those mi
