TX.8.5.H | Identify examples of proportional and non-proportional functions that arise from mathematical and real-world problems |
TX.8.5.I | Write an equation in the form y = mx + b to model a linear relationship between two quantities using verbal, numerical, tabular, and graphical representations |
TX.8.6.A | Describe the volume formula V = Bh of a cylinder in terms of its base area and its height |
TX.8.6.B | Model the relationship between the volume of a cylinder and a cone having both congruent bases and heights and connect that relationship to the formulas |
TX.8.6.C | Use models and diagrams to explain the Pythagorean theorem |
TX.8.7.A | Solve problems involving the volume of cylinders, cones, and spheres |
TX.8.7.B | Use previous knowledge of surface area to make connections to the formulas for lateral and total surface area and determine solutions for problems involving rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and cylinders |
TX.8.7.C | Use the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse to solve problems |
TX.8.7.D | Determine the distance between two points on a coordinate plane using the Pythagorean Theorem |
TX.8.8.A | Write one-variable equations or inequalities with variables on both sides that represent problems using rational number coefficients and constants |
TX.8.8.B | Write a corresponding real-world problem when given a one-variable equation or inequality with variables on both sides of the equal sign using rational number coefficients and constants |
TX.8.8.C | Model and solve one-variable equations with variables on both sides of the equal sign that represent mathematical and real-world problems using rational number coefficients and constants |
TX.8.8.D | Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles |
TX.8.9 | Identify and verify the values of x and y that simultaneously satisfy two linear equations in the form y = mx + b from the intersections of the graphed equations |
TX.8.10.A | Generalize the properties of orientation and congruence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations of two-dimensional shapes on a coordinate plane |
TX.8.10.B | Differentiate between transformations that preserve congruence and those that do not |
TX.8.11.A | Construct a scatterplot and describe the observed data to address questions of association such as linear, non-linear, and no association between bivariate data |
TX.8.11.B | Determine the mean absolute deviation and use this quantity as a measure of the average distance data are from the mean using a data set of no more than 10 data points |
TX.8.11.C | Simulate generating random samples of the same size from a population with known characteristics to develop the notion of a random sample being representative of the population from which it was selected |
TX.8.12.A | Solve real-world problems comparing how interest rate and loan length affect the cost of credit |
TX.8.12.B | Calculate the total cost of repaying a loan, including credit cards and easy access loans, under various rates of interest and over different periods using an online calculator |
TX.8.12.C | Explain how small amounts of money invested regularly, including money saved for college and retirement, grow over time |
TX.8.12.E | Identify and explain the advantages and disadvantages of different payment methods |
TX.8.12.G | Estimate the cost of a two-year and four-year college education, including family contribution, and devise a periodic savings plan for accumulating the money needed to contribute to the total cost of attendance for at least the first year of college |
