Standard(s):
[DLIT] (9-12) 43 : 37) Evaluate the ability of models and simulations to test and support the refinement of hypotheses.
a. Create and utilize models and simulations to help formulate, test, and refine a hypothesis.
b. Form a model of a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis by the collection and analysis of data generated by simulations.
Examples: Science lab, robotics lab, manufacturing, space exploration.
c. Explore situations where a flawed model provided an incorrect answer.
[MA2019] GEO-19 (9-12) 2 : 2. Use units as a way to understand problems and to guide the solution of multi-step problems.
a. Choose and interpret units consistently in formulas.
b. Choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays.
c. Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling.
d. Choose a level of accuracy appropriate to limitations of measurements when reporting quantities.
[MA2019] GEO-19 (9-12) 7 : 7. Use mathematical and statistical reasoning with quantitative data, both univariate data (set of values) and bivariate data (set of pairs of values) that suggest a linear association, in order to draw conclusions and assess risk.
Example: Estimate the typical age at which a lung cancer patient is diagnosed, and estimate how the typical age differs depending on the number of cigarettes smoked per day.
[MA2019] GEO-19 (9-12) 29 : 29. Find patterns and relationships in figures including lines, triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles, using technology and other tools.
a. Construct figures, using technology and other tools, in order to make and test conjectures about their properties.
b. Identify different sets of properties necessary to define and construct figures.
