A.CED.4 Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations.
A.REI.1 Explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step, starting from
the assumption that the original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method.
A.REI. 3 Solve linear equations and inequalities in one variable, including equations with coefficients represented by letters.
Mathematical Practices:
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
● Students will be able to explain the meaning of each real-world problem in context.
2. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
● Students will be able to justify each step in each equation.
3. Reason abstractly and quantitatively
● Students will be able to make sense of their solution in each equation.
4. Model with mathematics
● Students will be able to use a graphing calculator to graph equations.
5. Attend to precision
● Students will be able to communicate their solution and accurately explain the solution.
6. Use appropriate tools strategically
● Students will be able to construct a table of values for equations.
7. Look for and make use of structure
● Students will be able to look at patterns of an equation to solve for a variable.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
● Students will be able to solve multiple equations and find similarities on how to solve equations.
Transfer
Students will be able to independently use their learning to...
Create and solve equations and inequalities in one variable, that will resurface in systems of equations and other applications
Apply what they learned to real world situations and scenarios and explain their process
Meaning
UNDERSTANDINGS Essential Questions
Students will understand that… Students will keep considering...
How do linear equations/inequalities exist in the real world?
Students will learn how to create and solve a one variable
equation/inequality and explain their process How do I determine whether to use an equation or inequality to solve
the problem?
Students should understand a variable is a replacement for an
unknown number. How do I check the reasonableness of my solution(s)?
Students should understand there are multiple steps to creating and How should I deal with negative coefficients, when solving
solving an equation/inequality. inequalities?
Students should understand that there is an inverse for each sign What types of relationships can be modeled by linear graphs?
operations to solve for a specific variable.
----A What information does the equation of a line give me?
Misunderstandings may include a negative number in solving
inequalities (forgetting to switch the inequality sign), or students
forgetting the inverse of a sign.
