8.1
Algebra
|
-
8.1.1
Translate among contextual, verbal, tabular, graphical, and algebraic representations of linear functions.
-
8.1.2
Determine the slope of a line and understand that it is a constant rate of change.
-
8.1.3
Identify and interpret the properties (i.e. slope, intercepts, continuity, and discreteness) of linear relationships as they are shown in the different representations and recognize proportional relationships (y/x = k or y = kx) as a special case.
-
8.1.4
Use linear functions and equations to represent, analyze and solve problems, and to make predictions and inferences.
-
8.1.5
Relate systems of two linear equations in two variables and their solutions to pairs of lines that are intersecting, parallel, or the same line.
-
8.1.6
Use informal strategies (e.g., graphs or tables) to solve problems involving systems of linear equations in two variables.

8.2
Data Analysis and Algebra
|
-
8.2.1
Organize and display data (e.g., histograms, box-and-whisker plots, scatter plots) to pose and answer questions; and justify the reasonableness of the choice of display.
-
8.2.2
Use measures of center and spread to summarize and compare data sets.
-
8.2.3
Interpret and analyze displays of data and descriptive statistics.
-
8.2.4
Compare descriptive statistics and evaluate how changes in data affect those statistics.
-
8.2.5
Describe the strengths and limitations of a particular statistical measure, and justify or critique its use in a given situation.
-
8.2.6
Use sample data to make predictions regarding a population.
-
8.2.7
Identify claims based on statistical data and evaluate the reasonableness of those claims.
-
8.2.8
Use data to estimate the likelihood of future events and evaluate the reasonableness of predictions.

8.3
Geometry and Measurement
|
-
8.3.1
Use properties of parallel lines, transversals, and angles to find missing sides and angles, and to solve problems including determining similarity or congruence of triangles.
-
8.3.2
Use models to show that the sum of the angles of any triangle is 180 degrees and apply this fact to find unknown angles.
-
8.3.3
Use models and logical arguments to show that the sum of the angles of any quadrilateral is 360 degrees, and apply this fact to find unknown angles.
-
8.3.4
Use models to explore the validity of the Pythagorean Theorem, and use it to find missing lengths.
-
8.3.5
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find distances in a variety of 2- and 3-dimensional contexts, including distances on coordinate graphs.
-
8.3.6
Use models and referents to explore and estimate square roots.
