Operations on Functions- Group Activity 4 members/Independent Practice 4 forms

In this engaging and collaborative group activity (for groups of four), students will practice operations on functions (adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing). There are 7 sections as each section has four subsections A, B, C and D (a total of 112 problems). In each subsection are given different pairs of functions as each partner has to perform adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. The subsections are four so each partner to go through the fourth different operations on functions.

In section 1 the given functions f(x) and g(x) are both linear.
In section 2 f(x) is a quadratic binomial and g(x) is a linear function.
Section 3: f(x) and g(x) are both quadratic binomials.
Section 4: f(x) or g(x) is a cubic binomial and g(x) or f(x) is a quadratic trinomial.
Section 5: f(x) and g(x) are both radical functions.
Section 6: f and g are rational functions.
Section 7: in subsections A and B f and g are both exponential functions and in subsections C and D f and g are both trigonometric functions.

The teacher can choose on which sections the students to work on.
This group activity may turn into competition between groups.
☞The resource can be also used as four different forms of independent practice.
