HSA.SSE.B.3

Standard

Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the quantity represented by the expression.*

Sub-standards

• HSA.SSE.B.3.a — Factor a quadratic expression to reveal the zeros of the function it defines.
• HSA.SSE.B.3.b — Complete the square in a quadratic expression to reveal the maximum or minimum value of the function it defines.
• HSA.SSE.B.3.c — Use the properties of exponents to transform expressions for exponential functions. For example the expression 1.15t can be rewritten as (1.151/12)12t ≈ 1.01212t to reveal the approximate equivalent monthly interest rate if the annual rate is 15%.
