Students solve systems of linear equations by using inverse matrices lead by a class discussion. They write the identities of the matrices given, review, and grade as a class. Students also write the matrix as the product of the...

Using either data provided or data that has been collected, young mathematicians graph linear functions to best fit their scatterplot. They also analyze their data and make predicitons based on the data. This lesson is intended as a...

In this system of equations worksheet, learners decide if the addition, subtraction, or substitution method works best for 15 problems of two equations and two unknowns and then use the preferred method to solve the system. Theys are...

Students explore the concept of multi-step equations. In the multi-step equation lesson, students solve equations by the 'party method'. Students make a flip book that shows the steps in solving multi-step equations.

Here is a great opportunity to introduce your mathematicians to a food they may never have heard of, quinoa. It may help to show a short video on quinoa, or make some quinoa for the class to try. Once they get over how to say quinoa,...

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....

Writing an equation of a line is as easy as m and b. A lesson 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 given,...

This activity helps young mathematicians connect the graph and the point-slope form of a line, by first solving a real-world problem and then using that example to motivate the understanding of the equation. By manipulating the gizmo,...

A matrix is just a fancy way of making a table. Young scholars explore operations with matrices with the first lessons in the final module of a 10-unit Algebra II series. After adding, subtracting, and multiplying matrices, pupils use...

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...

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

Need a instructional activity 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 learning exercise 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.

This resource should be called "All About Lines, and Then Some!". Packed full of all the key components of linear functions, learners review how to set up different equations, find intercepts, and graph. All the main topics are included...

Oh that intercept! Budding algebra masters solve linear equations from standard to intercept form. They identify the slope and y-intercept to help graph the lines, an then create coordinate pairs using a table of values. Great TI tips...

Students simplify linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students solve equations by addition and subtraction. They solve one step equations to practice isolating the variable on one side of the equation.

Solve equations and graph systems of inequalities. Designed as a lesson to reinforce these concepts, learners revisit shading and boundaries along with solving linear inequalities.

This interactive website provides a variety of lesson plans according to which standards you are applying and which textbook you use. Introduce functions to your class by having them construct single operation machines and create...

Mathematical reasoning and linear systems are two of the strategies used to solve this number puzzle. Your learners will enjoy the challenge and the variety of ways to approach this challenge.

Babies grow at an incredible rate! Demonstrate how to model growth using a linear function. Learners build the function from two data points, and then use the function to make predictions.

Not all resources are created equal — and your class benefits! Scholars learn how to solve one-step inequalities using inverse operations. They complete an activity matching inequalities to their solutions.

A single activity gets your math class to solve a word problem using two linear equations and two variables. They compare the summer earnings of Kimi and Jordan and then graph the solutions to determine who will save the most money in a...
