Anesthesiologist -- Rational Functions - 21st Century Math Project
Every minute of relief can count for something. Once medicine enters the blood stream it will soon have its most powerful effect because it has its highest concentration. Over time the concentration reduces and once it reaches a certain level, the medicine will no longer be effective. The concentration level of medicines can be most accurately modeled by rational functions. Turn your Algebra 2 or Pre-Calculus into a Medical Research Lab in this 21st Century Math Project.

Archaeological Dig - Carbon Dating Exponential & Log - 21st Century Math Project
Invented in the 1940s by Willard Libby, carbon dating is a process by which archaeologists measure the carbon-14 content in a fossil to determine its approximate age. People and animals acquire carbon-14 by eating plants and animals. Once an organism dies, the amount of carbon-14 in the organism begins to decay.Turn your Algebra 2 or Pre-Calculus into an Archaeological Research Lab with this 21st Century Math Project.
