Getting started

A few ideas about using technology as we start this next unit.
Video Tutorial

Desmos

I encourage you to make use of this free, online graphing calculator as you work through this next unit.
You WILL need to use your graphing calculator, but using your computer will be way easier and help you to connect better with the ideas of the coming lessons.

Below,a link to the Desmos Online Graphing Calculator.
I would suggest bookmarking that page for easy access as you do your math.
