Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related ALG1.133 Strategic Use of Tools and Technology skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Which statement best summarizes strategic use of tools and technology in Algebra I?
AAlways use the most advanced technology even when mental math is faster.
BAvoid technology completely because exact work never needs checking.
CUse the same tool for every problem so the process never changes.
DChoose tools based on the problem goal, needed precision, amount of data, and whether a graph, table, calculation, or exact argument is most useful.
Solution & Explanation:Strategic tool use means matching the tool to the task, using it efficiently, and checking that its output answers the mathematical question accurately.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A class is comparing two fundraising plans: Plan A starts with $80 and adds $12 per week, while Plan B starts with $20 and adds $20 per week. They need a clear presentation and the exact break-even week. Which strategy is strongest?
AUse only a graph estimate and ignore the exact equation.
BChoose Plan B because 20 is the larger weekly rate without checking the starting amounts.
CUse a spreadsheet or graph to compare weekly totals visually, then solve 80 + 12w = 20 + 20w exactly to confirm the break-even week.
DMake a histogram of the two starting amounts.
Solution & Explanation:The graph or table helps present the comparison, and algebra gives the exact break-even point: 60 = 8w, so w = 7.5 weeks.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A project compares linear, exponential, and quadratic models for the same data and asks for the best-supported model within the observed domain. Which tool workflow is strongest?
AChoose the model with the largest equation output.
BUse graphing technology or a spreadsheet to fit all three models, compare residual plots and prediction errors, and explain the choice in context.
CUse only the first data point to identify the model type.
DMake a pie chart of the model names.
Solution & Explanation:Comparing multiple models requires tools that can fit equations and show residuals or errors. The final choice should be justified within the data's domain.
