In Algebra 2, students analyze and apply operations using multiple representations of functions to compare, interpret data, and make inferences. Functions include (but not limited to) linear, exponential, quadratic, absolute value, inverse, piecewise, cubic, polynomial, trigonometric, logarithms, etc. They use statistics in real world contexts to develop solutions.
