In this Algebra Application, students study the life cycles of 13- and 17-year cicadas, as well as the populations of bird predators. Students develop a mathematical model using spreadsheets and investigate why the prime number life cycles help the cicadas. The math topics covered include:

• Mathematical modeling
• Data gathering and analysis
• Percent increase and decrease
• Prime numbers and composites

This real world application of math concepts will engage your students.
