    This document provides instructions for completing a Desmos project involving graphing lines, circles, and parabolas. It guides the student through a series of tasks of increasing difficulty, having them graph equations and observe the effects of changing different terms in the equations. They are asked to graph lines by changing the slope and y-intercept, graph horizontal and vertical lines, add restrictions to lines, graph circles and observe how changing terms affects the size, position and shape of the circles. They also graph a parabola and observe similar effects of changing terms. Screenshots are requested after each task.

    Desmos Inquiry for Distance Learning Name: ___________________

    Go to Desmos.com and follow the directions. You will use this page as a reference as you work on
    your Desmos Project. Doing a good job on this makes everything easier. This page is Mild Level.
    Mild: Make a diagonal line with Desmos by writing the equation Insert Screenshot of the graph
    below

    Y = 2x+3

    Mild: Change the 2 to 4 and explain what changed. Insert Screenshot of both lines on
    Your equation will now be y = 4x+3 the same graph

    When I change the # in front of the x, I noticed…

    The line got steeper

    Mild: Create a new equation below the equation in #2 and Insert Screenshot of y = 4x+3 and
    type in y = 4x + 6 y = 4x+6 on the same graph

    When I change the # behind the x, I noticed…

    The line move further away from the point of origin


    Mild: Clear all lines. Type in y = 3 Insert Screenshot here

    When I just have y = (something without an x), I noticed…

    It is only a horizontal line

    MIld: Make a 2nd equation that is y = 6. Insert Screenshot here of both


    lines on the same graph

    When I increase or decrease my number, I noticed…

    The line either goes up or down

    Mild: Clear all lines. Type in x = 3 Insert Screenshot here

    It’s just a vertical line


    Mild: Make a 2nd equation with x = 5 Insert Screenshot here of both
    lines on the same graph

    When I increased my number, I noticed…

    It went more forward

    Mild: Type in the equation y = 2x+3 and then type in {x<3} Insert Screenshot here of both
    lines on the same graph

    When I added {x<3}, I noticed…

    It cuts off at 15

    Mild: Now add {x>-2} Insert Screenshot here of both


    lines on the same graph
    When I added {x>-2}, I noticed…

    It cuts off at -10

    Medium: Type in this equation: (x-2)^2 +(y+3)^2 = 8 Insert screenshot

    What shape did this make?

    It made a circle

    Medium: Adjust one number in the equation to make circle Insert screenshot
    shift upward/downwards:

    Circle the number you changed to shift the circle up or down

    (x-2)^2 +(y+3)^2 = 8

    Medium: Adjust one number in the equation to shift the circle Insert screenshot
    either left or right:
    Circle the number you changed to shift the circle left or right:

    (x-2)^2 +(y+3)^2 = 8

    Medium: Adjust one number in the equation to make the circle Insert screenshot
    bigger or smaller:

    Medium: Circle the number you changed to make the circle


    bigger or smaller?

    (x-2)^2 +(y+3)^2 = 8

    Spicy Challenge Option: Adjust one number in the equation Insert screenshot
    to squish the circle from the sides:

    Example:

    Circle the number you changed to squish the circle vertically?

    (x-2)^2 +(y+3)^2 = 8

    Spicy Challenge Option: Adjust one number in the equation Insert screenshot
    to squish the circle vertically:
    Example:

    Circle the number you changed to squish the circle


    horizontally:

    (x-2)^2 +(y+3)^2 = 8

    Medium: Type in this equation: y = 1.5(x-4)^2 +3 Insert screenshot

    What shape did this make?

    It made an upside-down half oval?

    Medium: Adjust one number in the equation to make parabola Insert screenshot
    shift upward/downwards:

    Circle the number you changed to shift the parabola up or


    down

    y = 1.5(x-4)^2 +3

    Medium: Adjust one number in the equation to make the Insert screenshot
    parabola shift sideways:
    Circle the number you changed to shift the parabola up or
    sideways

    y = 1.5(x-4)^2 +3

    Medium: Adjust one number in the equation to make the Insert screenshot
    parabola skinnier or wider

    Circle the number you changed to make the parabola


    skinnier

    y = 1.5(x-4)^2 +3
