HSN.Q.A.1: Use units as a way to understand problems and to guide the solution of multi-step problems; choose and interpret units consistently in formulas; choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays.
What you'll learn
- Use units to understand a problem before attempting to solve it, identifying what quantities are given and what quantity must be found
- Perform dimensional analysis (unit analysis) to guide multi-step problem solving, ensuring that units combine correctly to produce the desired result
- Choose and interpret units consistently in formulas, explaining what each unit represents and why the formula's units are consistent
- Choose and interpret the scale and origin in graphs and data displays to accurately represent quantitative relationships
- Use unit conversion as a problem-solving strategy, chaining conversion factors to transform between different unit systems
