Go Barbie Go!
"Barbie falls ___ inches when she has a bungee made of ___ rubber bands. When we add ___ rubber bands, she falls ___ inches ...."
By recording data and using a scatter plot and a line of best fit from the graphing calculator, students make predictions on the number of rubber bands needed to make a bungee for Barbie if she falls from a given height. The objective is to provide Barbie with the greatest thrill while ensuring her safety (get her to fall as close to the ground as possible without letting her head touch.)
