The example of two travelers meeting somewhere along the road has been a stereotypical joke about algebra as long as algebra has existed. Here in this detailed presentation, this old trope gets a careful and approachable treatment....

Different equations, same solution. Scholars first find a system with equations y1 and y2 that have a given solution. They then find a different system with equations y3 and y4 that have the same solution. The ultimate goal is to...

I'd like to prove that this activity has a lot to offer. Seven problems using triangles and parallelograms practice the traditional method of a two-column proof. After the activity is some practice problems that show worked out...

Keep the planes from crashing. Pupils work with three airplanes and change their flight paths to keep them at a safe distance from each other. Individuals work through three problems in the third interactive in a set of six with...

Systematically combine shapes to arrive at one solution. The resource models a system of linear equations using colored shapes. Pupils follow rules to combine circles and squares to add the two equations together, resulting in one...

Sometimes being mixed up is a good thing! Young chemists explore the basics of making solutions with a realistic interactive. Pupils observe the differences in volume using quantities of water and ethanol, as well as the effects of...

Nobody wants to make Nana mad! Help Mr. Meyer fix the chocolate milk he prepared for his Nana using too many scoops of chocolate. Youngsters develop a problem-solving strategy that leads to the solution using ratios and proportions.

One way to study something is to try to replicate it. Young scientists do just that as they use solutions to recreate mineral structures on a dwarf planet. They make solutions with different types of salt, evaporate them, and observe the...

Sixth graders practice six steps to effective problem solving. Working with the school counselor, class members are presented with a scenario that requires them to make a decision. Individuals then write a reflection in which they...

In this solutions worksheet, students determine at what pH aspartic acid would be protonated. Students create buffer solutions with a certain pH and determine the solubility in certain solutions. This worksheet has 8 problems to solve.

Determining the number of solutions is an important stepping stone to higher math. For this case, the resource asks algebra pupils to find a second linear equation for a certain solution of a system. When one is asked for a linear...

For this solutions worksheet, students calculate the pH of given solutions. Students determine the equation used to determine pH and the estimated pH for mixtures. This worksheet has 12 fill in the blank and 15 problems to solve.

Learners use estimation to determine the answers to word problems by rounding whole numbers. In this estimation lesson plan, pupils compare and contrast solutions using the best answer.

Finding approximate solutions to word problems allows users to assess the reasonableness of their answers. In a well-paced lesson, the class rounds numbers to estimate the solutions. They explain their thinking and determine if the...

This activity focuses in on the structure of an equation and how it compares to another. Young algebraists are tasked with grouping together equations that have the same solution by focusing on the transformation of the equations rather...

Pupils, after brainstorming possible problem solving activities, choose from one of the many and write what the problem is and a solution to solve it.

Seventh graders write scripts for scenarios to be "re-solutioned". One re-solution scenario will be role played for whole class. They also identify what personal responsibility means and who is responsible in taking personal...

In this algebra worksheet, students solve 8 quadratic equations by using the discriminant. They write the quadratic equation for 7 problems from the solution sets. Three of the solution sets contain imaginary numbers (i).

In this math worksheet, learners find the solutions to the problems that apply the time-independent Schrödinger equation. They examine the relationship between the mass and energy.

In this neutralization worksheet, students determine the concentration of solution if neutralized by a certain amount of another solution. This worksheet has 7 problems to solve.

Chemistry apprentices unscramble seventeen general chemistry terms. At the bottom of the list, you will find online access to the solution. Print this resource out and have learners also write definitions for the different vocabulary...

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.

Patterns are extremely helpful when solving a puzzle. Young scholars attempt to find times a bus will pass each stop. They identify a pattern in the known stop times to identify the solutions.

Studying function means more than simply learning a formula. Learners must use functions to think through four problems and find solutions. Each task utilizes a different concept from a study of functions. Class members might...
