Stony Brook University: Solving Linear Equations

To find x, you have to get it by itself, correct? Individuals solve a linear word problem and share their solutions with others that solved the problem in a similar fashion. They then complete a self-assessment on how they feel about...

In this linear equations instructional activity, students solve and complete 20 different problems that include using the order of operations. First, they distribute to remove the parentheses and combine like terms. Then, students move...

Sal teaches how to use graphing as a tool, not a hindrance, in this helpful video. His lecture would make a good resource for your algebra class, particularly as the focus shifts to graphing problems and linear systems.

This is a lesson in solving linear equations. More specifically, students will see how to solve an equation with a variable expression in the denominator of a fraction.

Another method for solving systems of equations, in addition to graphing, is the focus of this video, as Sal demonstrates the substitution method. It's important to understand that there is more than one way to solve any problem,...

Your graphing calculator can do lots of amazing things, even solve equations graphically. Young mathematicians learn to solve linear equations by using a graphing calculator. The informative YouTube video shows them how to apply the Zero...

Illuminate the world of mathematics for your class, specifically, the process of linear equations. In this video, Sal teaches about linear equations in standard form after two videos on slope-intercept and slope-point forms. He defines...

A thorough and professional appearance characterizes a lesson on linear equations. Maturing mathematicians are taught to identify and exemplify linear equations with a single variable. They also classify equations according to the number...

Algebra students use manipulatives to solve linear equations. They use manipulatives, symbolic methods, and substitution to demonstrate each algebraic solution.

Given linear equations and inequalities, the student will investigate methods for solving the equations or inequalities.
