The student will demonstrate an understanding of patterns, relationships, and algebraic reasoning.

(8.3)

Patterns, relationships, and algebraic thinking.  The student identifies proportional relationships in problem situations and solves problems.  The student is expected to

(A)

compare and contrast proportional and non-proportional relationships; and 

(B)

estimate and find solutions to application problems involving percents and proportional relationships such as similarity and rates.

(8.4)

Patterns, relationships, and algebraic thinking.  The student makes connections among various representations of a numerical relationship.  The student is expected to

(A)

generate a different representation given one representation of data such as a table, graph, equation, or verbal description.

(8.5)

Patterns, relationships, and algebraic thinking.  The student uses graphs, tables, and algebraic representations to make predictions and solve problems.  The student is expected to

(A)

estimate, find, and justify solutions to application problems using appropriate tables, graphs, and algebraic equations; and

(B)

use an algebraic expression to find any term in a sequence.
