Oregon Algebra 1: What Students Learn
Oregon Algebra 1 is the gateway to all higher-level math. Aligned to Oregon Mathematics Standards, this course builds the skills students need for Geometry, Algebra 2, and beyond. StudyPug covers every standard with clear video lessons and practice problems.
Equations and Inequalities
Students start by creating and solving equations and inequalities in one variable, including those arising from linear, quadratic, rational, and exponential contexts. They learn to rearrange formulas, justify each step in solving an equation, and solve linear equations with letter coefficients. StudyPug's video lessons walk through each type of equation step by step.
- Create equations in one and two or more variables
- Solve linear equations and inequalities, including with letter coefficients
- Represent constraints using systems of equations and inequalities
- Rearrange formulas to isolate a quantity of interest
Systems of Equations
Oregon Algebra 1 students learn to solve systems of two linear equations both exactly and approximately — using substitution, elimination, and graphing. They also explore why replacing one equation with a sum of equations preserves the solution set.
- Solve systems of linear equations graphically and algebraically
- Graph solution sets of linear inequalities as half-planes
- Solve systems involving one linear and one quadratic equation
Expressions and Polynomials
Students learn to interpret, rewrite, and manipulate algebraic expressions. They work with polynomials — adding, subtracting, and multiplying them — and explore rational exponents and radical expressions.
- Interpret and rewrite expressions in equivalent forms
- Add, subtract, and multiply polynomials
- Identify zeros of polynomials and use them to sketch graphs
- Rewrite radical expressions using rational exponent notation
Functions
A major focus of Algebra 1 is understanding what a function is and how to work with functions. Students use function notation, interpret graphs and tables, calculate average rates of change, and compare functions represented in different ways.
- Understand domain, range, and function notation
- Interpret key features of graphs and tables
- Calculate and interpret average rate of change
- Graph functions and identify key features by hand and with technology
- Write functions that describe relationships between quantities
- Identify effects of transformations: f(x) + k, kf(x), f(kx), f(x + k)
Linear and Exponential Models
Students compare linear and exponential growth, construct models from graphs and tables, and interpret parameters in context. They also work with arithmetic and geometric sequences in both recursive and explicit forms.
- Distinguish linear from exponential growth situations
- Construct linear and exponential functions from graphs, tables, and descriptions
- Interpret slope, intercept, and exponential parameters in real contexts
- Observe that exponential growth eventually exceeds polynomial growth
Quadratic Equations
Students solve quadratic equations in one variable using multiple methods, including factoring, completing the square, and the quadratic formula. They also solve systems with one linear and one quadratic equation.
Statistics and Data Analysis
Algebra 1 closes with a statistics unit where students represent data using dot plots, histograms, and box plots. They compare distributions, interpret scatter plots, fit linear models, and learn to distinguish correlation from causation.
- Represent and compare data distributions using appropriate statistics
- Interpret outliers and their effects on center and spread
- Fit linear models to scatter plots and interpret slope and intercept
- Compute and interpret the correlation coefficient using technology
- Distinguish between correlation and causation
