A teacher gives her class the following project to work during a class period. She explains the problem requires several steps and asks the class to support their answers by checking them in a way other than just giving the answers derived from the formulas. She takes her class to the computer lab, so they can also use other means of technology as well as their calculators. Problem: A bridge for bike riders and pedestrians is built over the Concho River that goes through downtown San Angelo Texas where the river bottom is V-shaped. If the supports are 2 feet long at each end, the center support is 401 feet long, and the supports increase in length by 3 feet with each support going from 2 feet to 401 feet, what is the total length of all the supports? The students can first use the formula for calculating the nth term of an arithmetic sequence [a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d] to calculate the value for n. If n is miscalculated the rest of the answers will be incorrect even if the students use the correct processes. Next the students can use the formula to calculate the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence [ S_n = n/2 (a_1 + a_n)] once with the value for n, and again for n - 1. The teacher wants the grade for this project to reflect different levels of performance of arithmetic skills, well-defined processes in solving the problem and checking the answer, use of quantitative language in writing that supports their answers, and their applications of the mathematics to the real-world problem. What method of assessment would be best for this project?

Form a rubric using the different items to be evaluated for the columns of the rubric and rows progressing with levels (1 to 4) of understanding and predetermined points associated with each level of understanding. With the rubric, students can get full credit for calculating the sum of the first n terms as long as the sum is correct with the n-value they use.

This theorem states that if you have a population with mean "u" and standard deviation "s" and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large (usually n > 30). If the population is normal, then the theorem holds true even for samples smaller than 30. In fact, this also holds true even if the population is binomial, provided that min (np, n(1-p)) > 5, where n is the sample size and p is the probability of success in the population. What is this theorem?

A teacher begins a new lesson on absolute value. He works the following three problems with the students in class. |3x + 2| = 9 |3x - 4| <=10 |7x + 9| > 16 The in-class assignment has three more problems with the same type of problems, but different numerical values. Next, he gives the students an absolute value problem as a quiz for the day. Which problem below would not be consistent with what has been taught?

|2x + 9| > -2
