Ohio Standards Connection:
Primary Standards, Benchmarks, and Indicators:
Standard:  Patterns, Functions and Algebra
  Benchmark: B.  Represent, analyze and generalize a variety of patterns and functions with tables, graphs, words and symbolic rules.
  Indicator: 3.  Use variables as unknown quantities in general rules when describing patterns and other relationships.
  Benchmark: F.  Use representations, such as tables, graphs and equations, to model situations and to solve problems, especially those that involve linear relationships.
  Indicator: 5.  Model problems with physical materials and visual representations, and use models, graphs and tables to draw conclusions and make predictions.
Standard:  Mathematical Processes Standard
  Benchmark: H.  Use representations to organize and communicate mathematical thinking and problem solutions.
  Benchmark: J.  Communicate mathematical thinking to others and analyze the mathematical thinking and strategies of others.
  Benchmark: K.  Recognize and use mathematical language and symbols when reading, writing and conversing with others.   
Secondary Standards, Benchmarks and Indicators:
Standard:  Patterns, Functions and Algebra
 Benchmark  E.  Use rules and variables to describe patterns, functions and other relationships.
 Benchmark  K.  Graph linear equations and inequalities.
 Benchmark  L.  Analyze functional relationships, and explain how a change in one quantity results in a change in the other.
 Indicator: 6.  Describe how the quantitative change in a variable affects the value of a related variable; e.g., describe how the rate of growth varies over time, based upon data in a table or graph.
Standard:  Data Analysis and Probability
 Benchmark  J.  Compare experimental and theoretical results for a variety of simple experiments.
 Indicator: 10.  Compare what should happen (theoretical/expected results) with what did happen (experimental/actual results) in a simple experiment.
  Benchmark  K.  Make and justify predictions based on experimental and theoretical probabilities.
 Indicator: 11.  Make predictions based on experimental and theoretical probabilities.
