    This document outlines a milestone assignment to model a student's assessment performance based on time spent on social media. Students will monitor their social media use and assessment scores over two weeks, record the data, then use it to determine the quadratic function that best fits the relationship and optimize it to find the social media time for maximum scores.

    Title Milestone: Grade Booster

    Timeline Week 5
    Create a function model that represents your performance in your
    Objectives
    assessments based on the time that you spent on social media.
    Tools Notebook, Pen, Dictionary, and Calculator

    1. You have come so far. Now is the time to apply everything you have learned about
    derivatives by performing the Milestone: Grade Booster.

    2. For this milestone, you need to monitor the number of hours you spend on social
    media the day before an assessment. You have to do this for two weeks.

    3. Denote your score as variable Y and the number of hours you spend on social media
    as variable t.

    4. Record your scores as follows:

    Number of hours spent in


    Subject Assessment Score (Y) social media prior to the
    assessment (t)

    5. Make sure to record at least 3 assessments for this task. Assessments are not limited
    to your Calculus class.

    6. We will assume that the relationship of variables Y and t is quadratic in form, i.e.,
    2
    𝑌 = 𝑎𝑡 + 𝑏𝑡 + 𝑐.

    7. Choose 3 pairs from your monitoring sheet above. For each pair (Y,t), substitute these
    values to the quadratic equation. Since you have 3 pairs of (Y,t), you will have 3
    equations in 3 unknown variables a, b, and c.

    8. Your first task is to find the values of a, b, and c using the methods that you’ve
    learned in General Math and Pre-calculus. After determining the values of a, b, and c,
    2
    you now substitute them to the equation 𝑌 = 𝑎𝑡 + 𝑏𝑡 + 𝑐.
    9. Your next task is to find the value for t that will maximize the value for Y. You will have
    to use the optimization technique used in class. This means that you have to identify
    the number of hours that you must spend on social media in order for you to
    maximize your assessment scores.

    10. Use a long size bond paper for your solutions.

    11. Your milestone will be checked using the rubric below. You need to reach level 3 on all
