Prerequisite courses/skills needed for this course:
This course is the second of a Common Core State Standards integrated and investigative mathematics program designed to use patterns, modeling, and conjectures to build student understanding and competency in mathematics. This A-G mathematics course will provide 10 credits toward graduation. Students will learn through collaboration, data gathering, experimentation, and conjectures. Technology will also play an important role in learning, to collect and model data, to make conjectures about the data and to develop a robust understanding of the mathematical principles. All five of these goals are embedded in both the curriculum and the core pedagogical beliefs of MPUSD math departments.

This course covers four power standards that contain functions including domain and range, input and output and its graphs; solving linear equations and inequalities in one and two variables, comparing linear functions and exponential functions; graphing and interpreting average rate of change which describe key features such as intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; transformations of geometric figures; modeling two variables on a scatter plot and correlation of coefficient; and arithmetic and geometric sequences.
