Young scholars solve quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students factor and graph linear and quadratic functions. They identify the standard and linear form of each equation.

Students solve equations with variables on both sides. In this algebra instructional activity, students solve equations using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They graph their solution on a coordinate plane.

Studens collect and graph data. In this algebra lesson, students use a CBL and CBR with a TI Calcualtor to observe linear graphs. They use the correct vocabualry as they discuss the collected data.

In this algebra learning exercise, students solve linear equations and plot their results on the coordinate plane. There are 20 problems using slopes and intercepts to help graph linear equations.

Students solve problems using systems of equations. In this algebra lesson, students find the point of intersection of two lines. They use the TI Calculator to graph and see the point of intersection.
