1.) Given a string tied to form a 20 inch loop, students will find the whole number lengths and widths of all rectangles that have a perimeter of 20 inches, write out a function table, and graph lengths and widths. Students will graph the area and the length of each of the rectangles above. 
2.) Students will graph the equation y = 2x for these values of x (-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3) Students will develop a T-table and label the graph appropriately. 
3) Students will graph the coordinates for the length and width of all rectangles with an area of 36 square units. 
1.) Students will graph y = 3x + 2 
2.) Students will graph all the whole numbers lengths and widths of rectangles with an area of 24 square units. 
3.) Students will make a T-table for each of various graphs of functions.
