Overview
Learning Intentions (Objectives)
Working with multiple representations you will analyze linear systems including:
- Apply and extend knowledge of linear relations to linear systems.
- Analyze a scenario given a graph or table of a linear system, then estimate the solution.
- Write a linear system based on a scenario, graph, and/or table. Solve the system by substitution.
- Understand that a system of two linear equations may have no, one, or infinite solutions.
Rationale (Diagnostic Results)
Students often have difficulty interpreting a system of equations or inequalities and understanding and identifying its solution.
