Earlier with Roger
Earlier we looked at a series of graphs and tables that modeled Roger throwing a baseball upward from a downward moving elevator. Based on that work, answer the following. The graphs and tables below represent Roger starting from a different height, throwing at a different initial velocity.

1. Match the graph with the appropriate table.
2. What are the roots, solutions shown?

Earlier with RogerYesterday we looked at a series of graphs and tables thatmodeled Roger throwing a baseball upward from adownward moving elevator. Based on that work, Rauland Marco answered the following question. Who isright and why?
1. Given the table and graph representing Roger throwinga baseball upward from a downward moving elevator, whatare the roots, solutions shown?
RaulRoots and solutions are the same as zeros.Y1 is zero at x = 0 and in between x = 3and x = 4, so the roots are x = 0 and x isabout 3.5
MarcoA roo t is the solution t o an equa tion sow e are l ooking fo r w here Y1 = Y2 . Inthe table, both Y1 and Y2 have t he sameva lues a t x = 0 and x = 4. On the graph,Y1 and Y2 in ter sect at the se sa me xva lues x = 0 and x = 4.

Earlier with Roger
Bo was absent yesterday. When you started telling him about the Roger-throwing-the-ball-elevator activity, he said, “What’s the big deal? Roots, zeros, solutions, x-intercepts – they are all the same thing.”How do you respond to Bo? A complete answer includes graphs, tables, equations and discussion.

Un-Doing Problems
Can you start with the answer? Can you start in the middle? Can you change one constraint? Can you start with a different
representation? Ask students to create or invent the
beginning of a problem.

Error Analysis
What are the typical errors that students make?
Pose an incorrect solution Ask students to explain what went wrong. Sometimes show the incorrect process,
sometimes just show the incorrect answer

Assessment should become a routine part of the ongoing classroom activity rather than an interruption.
