Scoring: You get two
attempts to solve each
problem. You earn 2
points for a correct
answer on the first try, 1
point for a correct answer
on the second try.
You can earn up to 10

Linked Calculators Screen Cross
Play Screen Cross against another student. Race another student
across the screen by calculating the slopes more quickly than
your opponent.
1. Connect two similar calculators using a unit-to-unit cable.
2. Use the grid to help determine the slope of the line segment as
quickly as possible.
3. Select the slope as you did in Screen Cross.
