STANDARD
I
Simplify numerical expressions using properties of real numbers and order of
operations, including those involving square roots, radical form, or decimal
approximations.
• Applying laws of exponents to simplify expressions, including those
containing zero and negative integral exponents
II
Analyze linear functions from their equations, slopes, and intercepts.
• Finding the slope of a line from its equation or by applying the slope
formula
• Determining the equations of linear functions given two points, a
point and the slope, tables of values, graphs, or ordered pairs
• Graphing two-variable linear equations and inequalities on the
Cartesian plane
IV
VI
VII
Perform operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication on
polynomial expressions.
• Dividing by a monomial
Factor binomials, trinomials, and other polynomials using GCF, difference of
squares, perfect square trinomials, and grouping.
Solve multistep equations and inequalities including linear, radical, absolute
value, and literal equations.
• Writing the solution of an equation or
inequality in set notation
• Graphing the solution of an equation
or inequality
• Modeling real-world problems by developing and solving equations
and inequalities, including those involving direct and inverse variation
