Linear or not linear — that is the question. The lesson plan has class members translate descriptions into algebraic expressions. They take the written expressions and determine whether they are linear or nonlinear based upon the...

Start with the basics. Pupils work through a review of the unit on equations and inequalities. Learners begin with solving equations and inequalities with no context, move on to problems that involve a context, and finish with a...

In this systems of equations worksheet, students solve systems of equations, systems of inequalities, and linear equations.  They read word problems and write a system of equations that depicts the problem.  this two-page...

In this quadratic system worksheet, students solve systems of linear equations. This one-page worksheet contains two story problems where students write their own system of equations and then solve. The remaining eight problems are...

In this linear equations worksheet, students solve ten problems. The first five, they find the equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope. Then, for the last five, students find the equation containing...

Determine what the class knows about linear equations. The three-question mid-module assessment is segment 15 in a 33-part series. The assessment includes writing and solving one-variable linear equations and graphing proportional...

Connect proportional linear equations and systems. The seven-question assessment is the last installment in a 33-part series. The items cover comparing proportional relationships, slope concepts, and simultaneous linear...

Use proportions to determine the travel distance in a given amount of time. The 10th installment in a series of 33 uses tables and descriptions to determine a person's constant speed. Using the constant speed, pupils write a linear...

This instructional activity begins with a review of linear functions and segues nicely over its fifteen examples and problems into a deep study of exponential functions. Linear and exponential growth are compared in an investment task....

You may be able to see patterns visually, but mathematics quantifies them. Here learners find correlation in scatterplots and write equations to represent that relationship. They fit a line to the data, find two points on the line, and...

Pupils build on previous experience with slope to investigate positive, negative, zero, and undefined slope. They complete a puzzle matching slope-intercept and standard forms of linear equations.

Middle schoolers identify an equation in one variable that models a restaurant order. They then solve the equation to determine the number of people who had each type of meal.

In this fish worksheet, students read a short story about the length of a fish.  They write an equation to determine the fish size.  This one-page worksheet contains 1 problem with the answer.  This problem may be used as...

Int his algebra worksheet, 11th graders solve linear inequalities using algebra and graph their solution on a graph. They analyze graphs and write an equation for the inequality. There are 4 questions with an answer key.

In this two step equations worksheet, students solve 14 word problems in short answer format. Students write a linear equation and solve given a word problem.

For this matrix operations worksheet, students perform matrix addition and multiplication. This two-page worksheet contains six problems. Definitions, examples and explanations are also provided.

For this equations and graphing review instructional activity, learners write, graph and solve equations for 62 problems, including a mid-unit review, with answers included.

Two-variable equations can express a constant rate situation. The instructional activity presents several constant rate problems. Pupils use the stated constant rate to create a linear equation, find values in a table, and graph the...

Graphing systems of linear inequalities is the focus of this worksheet. Problems range from checking solutions of inequalities, graphing systems of two inequalities, and graphing systems of three inequalities. Graphing horizontal lines,...

Nail this assessment task to your list of resources. Learners must set up equations to model the cost of fencing that includes posts and panels. They then determine the cost of a fence with a specific number of posts and panels.

Everyone wants the best price when shopping — no matter what they are trying to buy. Given pricing information, pupils must solve a system of equations to determine the best option for printing tickets.

Use what you know about parallel and perpendicular lines to write equations! Learners take an equation of a line and write an equation of a line that is parallel or perpendicular using slope criteria. They then solve problems to...
