Young scholars read real world problems, determine the variables, and set up the function using algebraic statements. After entering data into the graphing calculator, they display information in the form of graphs and scatter plots. ...

In this Algebra I worksheet, 9th graders solve linear equations in which like variable terms must be combined. The one page interactive worksheet contains fifteen problems. Answers and a hint are provided. 

Eighth graders examine batteries in a series circuit and the associated voltage. They determine, through inquiry and problem solving, that the total voltage of batteries in a series is the sum of the voltage of each battery. They design...

In this writing sentences worksheet, students read statements and translate them into an algebraic expression. Afterward, they solve for the unknown. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

Students discover for which kind of linear function is appropriate to use the "scatter" or the "connected" term. In this lesson, students investigate functions using variables, patterns book, graph paper, rulers and the graphit program.

Students list all equations needed to solve a three variable equation using the Method of Lagrange, after first signing an honor pledge to promise that they have followed the rules on the first page. They solve each equation, telling the...

For this polynomial worksheet, students use FOIL to simplify polynomial equations with exponents. They evaluate expressions with two variables involving positive and negative integers. Students place their answers on the web page for...

Middle and high schoolers investigate how to solve inequalities. The lesson has a good guide for taking pupils through a direct instruction of the concept. You can use counting tiles in order to help kinesthetic learners.

In this inequalities worksheet, students answer 6 multiple choice problems. Students then solve and graph 13 inequalities. Students answer 1 open-ended word problem.

Sixth graders solve two-step equations.

In this optimization learning exercise, students solve 20 short answer word problems. Students read, sketch, define variables, write equations, differentiate their equations, and find the maximum or minimum of each word problem.

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.

Buying a new sofa? Learn how to use the Pythagorean Theorem, as well as algebra and graphing techniques, to determine whether the sofa will fit around a corner (which I'm sure you'll agree is a very important consideration!).

Teach your class to think outside the box. Scholars use the concept of equality to solve a problem in the assessment task. They determine how to use a scale to identify the one box out of a set of nine boxes that is heavier than the others.

How are functions related to chicken nuggets? A video teaches the concept of a function using the idea of a nugget-making machine as an analogy for a function machine. Learners determine if a relation is a function from an equation...
