Systems Of Equations As Well As Inequalities Inb Pages

My Algebra 1 students but finished our unit of measurement on systems of equations together with inequalities. This unit of measurement wasn't perfect. I'd similar to include a real-world applications when nosotros solve past times graphing. But, compared to previous years, I experience genuinely practiced nearly this unit!

The unit of measurement started out amongst a divider. You tin mail away acquire to a greater extent than nearly these dividers here.

Originally, I had planned on breaking this unit of measurement into 4 skills. I genuinely exclusively ended upward breaking it into three skills because I combined SY2 together with SY4 together. Of course, I didn't realize this until it became fourth dimension to origin SY4. All of a sudden, I realized nosotros had already done it!

Here's a close-up of our skills for the unit:

We started past times practicing our organization writing skills.

Then, nosotros solved systems of equations together with inequalities past times graphing.

Then, nosotros finished off our unit of measurement amongst solving systems algebraically.

We did iv examples together of solving past times substitution. I LOVE how this graphic organizer I made turned out!

When i or both of the equations would live already solved for i of the variables, my students seemed to accept a difficult fourth dimension realizing this. For this problem, they kept bespeak if nosotros could solve for p.

My students kept wanting to role the variables they had defined inwards their lastly solution sentences. I had to proceed telling them to write a judgement that would brand their English linguistic communication instructor happy. I told them I doubted that their English linguistic communication instructor would desire to come across a variable together with an equal sign inwards their equation!

Next, nosotros explored solving systems past times elimination.

When I solve systems, I almost e'er prefer to solve them past times elimination. I was surprised, then, when I realize the graphic organizer I had made for elimination had to a greater extent than steps than the graphic organizer for substitution.

Even though in that place are to a greater extent than steps, my students ended upward preferring the elimination method, too.

My students were SO happy every fourth dimension nosotros got to skip a stride together with set an "X" inwards the box!
