Modelagem matemática no ensino de funções afins e quadráticas para um problema de produção de milho de pequenos agricultores numa área rural do sudeste do Pará

Abstract

One of the greatest difficulties for students to learn the contents of related and quadratic functions is not to have a relationship with everyday problems, in view of this, the objective of this work is to provide a way to solve a problem of rural daily life, using Mathematical Modeling. We conceptualize this Modeling and describe how this strategy can help in the teaching-learning of students, we present the definitions of related and quadratic functions using the GeoGebra software, we establish relationships between the daily lives of students and their families, we identify the problems faced by rural producers for corn production, we model the profit function using the GeoGebra software and interpret the data obtained. We believe that this work can contribute to a better learning of the contents, that teaching becomes more dynamic and that the interpretation of data becomes more visible.
