Dash for Dogs: Functions Performance Task

Students demonstrate their understanding of functions to complete this race-themed performance task! Designed for eighth-grade learners, this three-page worksheet challenges students to use their algebra knowledge to help Anna plan for the Dash for Dogs race, an annual 5K race that benefits a local animal rescue. To complete the task, students will be asked to determine if given pairs of quantities represent functions, construct functions to represent linear models, sketch graphs that have been described verbally, and more!
