MTH-3051-2

Presentation

Algebraic and Graphical Modelling is the first in a series of three Secondary 3 mathematics courses in the diversified basic education program. Its goal is to enable students to deal with situations that need to be represented with an algebraic or graphical model expressing a relation. By the end of this course, students will be able to use different strategies and types of reasoning to solve situational problems in the family of situations Relationship between quantities. This guide contains five learning situations and is accompanied by two scored activities.

Content
