Students explore the concept of solving systems of equations. In this solving systems of equations lesson, students watch YouTube videos about how to solve systems by graphing and by elimination. Students use an interactive website to...

What does English have to do with math? Teach your class the "grammar" of a number sentence. Sentences with correct grammar can be false! Understanding of a number sentence leads to a comparison with equations.

Model the effects of practice on texting speed. Pupils develop a linear equation that models the change in texting speed based on the amount of practice. The sixth performance task in an eight-part series requires learners to solve...

Can your class write linear equations three different ways? Here is a study guide that includes slope-intercept, standard, and point-slope forms. Learners are given the slope and a point on the line, or two points and are asked to write...

Explore methods for solving linear systems with your classes and introduce learners to using matrices as a viable method. Scholars are able to recognize situations where matrices are the efficient method of solving. Application...

Learners explore the concept of solving systems of equations with two equations and two unknowns. In this solving systems of equations lesson, they work through problems of solving systems by substitution, elimination, and graphing....

For this Algebra I/Algebra II worksheet, students use systems of linear equations in two variables to solve verbal problems.  The four page worksheet contains a combination of ten multiple choice and free response questions....

In this Algebra I/Algebra II worksheet, students solve word problems whose solution requires the use of a system of linear equations in two variables.  The two page worksheet contains a combination of ten multiple choice and free...

Recycle, reuse, and rearrange! Young scholars learn to rearrange formulas to highlight a variable of interest. They then use their new formulas to make calculations.

Here is a great set of eight scenarios that require the writing of a one-variable inequality and then solving to find the solution. This inequality word problem activity is then followed by the solutions to each of the eight problems.

How do you make these x's get along? Building on the previous lesson in the series, learners solve equations by combining like terms. The video uses objects to help pupils understand the concept. 

To find x, you have to get it by itself, correct? Individuals solve a linear word problem and share their solutions with others that solved the problem in a similar fashion. They then complete a self-assessment on how they feel about...

Incorporate geometry into the solving linear equations lesson plan. Pupils use their knowledge of geometry to write linear equations which reinforces geometry measurement concepts while at the same time providing a familiar context...

Start with the basics. Pupils work through a review of the unit on equations and inequalities. Learners begin with solving equations and inequalities with no context, move on to problems that involve a context, and finish with a...

Reviewing the process of solving equations is as easy as one click of a button. Scholars solve linear and quadratic equations by using a helpful interactive. The computer app automatically scores responses, providing immediate feedback...

There's more than one way to solve an equation — three, actually. Scholars learn how to solve simple linear equations in one variable using three different methods, which include using balance scales, using decomposition (e.g., turning...

Solve your equation and prove it, too. Young mathematicians solve linear equations using an interactive. They must input a property to justify each step of their solutions.

Six questions make up a challenging interactive that tests scholars' knowledge of repeating decimals. Mathematicians answer true or false and multiple-choice questions with help from a tool that highlights decimal movement in an...

Science equipment can be handy for math class, too. Scholars learn to solve one- and two-step linear equations by using the concept of a balance. They solve real-world problems in a variety of contexts by writing and solving linear...

Don't cover up this resource — use it out in the open! Pupils learn how to cover up various parts of a linear equation in order to help solve the equation. A worksheet of problems provides practice with this skill.

Test your mathematicians' skills with a worksheet full of decimals and equations. The problems start simple with one-step equations and work up to multi-step equations with variables on both sides. The top of the worksheet has the...

Is there one, none, or more? Through discussion or activity, scholars find the properties of an equation that will determine the number of solutions. They then use the properties discovered to figure out the number of solutions...

In this algebra worksheet, learners solve rational equations including two application problems. This worksheet contains explanations to aid in understanding. 

Cover it up to reveal the values of variables. Using arrangements of colored tiles representing algebraic expressions, pupils layer them over each other to determine the values of variables. The procedure models the elimination method in...
