Students solve equations containing variables on both side of the equal sign. In this algebra lesson plan, students combine like terms using opposite signs to get them on one side of the equal sign. They model the equations using bar...

Students practice solving equations. In this algebra lesson, students solve a variety of linear equations using addition, subtraction, multiplication, inverse and division. They solve equations with more than one step and equations with...

Learners solve linear equations. By observing the graph of each side of an equation using the TI-nspire graphing calculator, your class gains insight into solutions, as well as balancing equations and transforming linear equations....

Polynomials are full of solutions! Learners understand that the degree determines the number of solutions. Examples show quadratic equations solved by factoring and by using the quadratic formula. A cubic equation is even mixed in for...

Writing an equation of a line is as easy as m and b. A activity presentation gives individuals different strategies for writing equations of lines. Some items provide a slope and a point while others provide two points. Whatever the...

Can learners determine solutions associated with lines? A slide presentation contains sample items for the Smarter Balanced 8th grade math Target D covering solving linear equations and systems of linear equations. Items illustrate the...

Here is a fun project. Sammy observes a chipmunk and a squirrel to see how many holes each needs in order to stash the same number of acorns.  Scholars could find the answer algebraically or create a table to analyze the...

Word problems can make even expert mathematicians go blank. Practice solving word problems with an extended version of the GUESS method (givens, unknowns, equations, solve, substitute), which adds the steps of drawing a diagram, making...

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...

Mix up your lessons with the resource on mixture problems. Scholars use manipulatives to model and solve mixture problems. Individuals then set up both one- and two-variable equations to solve the problems.

Undo a function to create a new one. The inverse of a function does just that. An inquiry-based lesson examines the result of reversing the variables of a function, beginning with linear patterns and advancing to quadratic and...

In this direct variation worksheet, 11th graders solve 11 different problems that include applying direct variation to solve. First, they find the constant of the variation described. Then, students use the charts at the bottom of the...

In this unit, 3rd graders investigate one variable to see if they can make a paper plane fly farther. They use scatter plots to establish a possible relationship between variables then use what they have found to make a paper plane to...

In this solving linear equations instructional activity, students combine like terms to solve 9 equations. Students solve 8 proportion problems by cross multiplying.

Need a worksheet to reinforce using substitution to solve linear systems of equations? This one contains 4 problems and plenty of work space. Tip: This would be a great quick review, warm up, or pair exercise.

Here is a resource that helps your algebra learners understand the connection between the graph of two lines, the equations of lines, and the solutions and intersecting points of lines. It would make a great assessment question, but can...

Here is a linear equations worksheet which invites learners to subtract a whole number value from both sides of the equal sign to find the value of X for fourteen problems.

In this linear function worksheet, students write linear functions, in intercept form, that satisfy given conditions. They find the local linearity for a function. This five-page worksheet contains examples, explanations, and six...

Provide young biologists with everything they need to excel in the study of lymphatics, the nervous system, hormones, cellular division, and more! Pupils utilize the workbook, complete with end-of-chapter assessment worksheets, to...
