This morning Isaac asked me, "what would the math be that if a is a positive number b is positive and if a is a negative number b is negative?"
It ended up being a collaborative effort, but we ended up with the equation: a = abs(a)*b. Next he went to graph it. Then he started playing around with the equation. After he tried a few things that didn't work out I put in a+1 = abs(a+1)*b and that altered it like he was looking for.
(Pat, don't roll your eyes.)
