Two players or teams try to guess the equation for a parabola. The game chooses whether you get to guess vertex or standard form.
Divide up the orange and green sides between two players or teams.
Compute a new target function.
Each player/team writes down their equation.
When both are set, enter the parameters on the slider.
Click the check button, and the team with the best match gets a point. This may require some arguing between teams. If you can’t agree, call a ref.
Play for five rounds. Team with the most points wins.
