In this algebra instructional activity, students solve 2 multi-step problems, where they use linear functions to determine the equation of a line.

Students investigate the concept of a linear function. They use geoboards to find the interior angle sums. The sum of the angles is found to equal 180 degrees. Students also investigate quadrilaterals.

In this system of equations worksheet, students solve nonlinear systems of equations using the substitution method. An example of how to solve is given prior to the assignment. Twenty problems are available on this two-page worksheet.

Students investigate linear functions. In this mathematics activity, students plot points onto a graph by solving the equations y=x and y=mx+b by being given numbers for x and solving for y.

Relationships can be good or bad, but functional relationships are the best! The video demonstrates relationships in a table or graph and what makes their qualities functional. Have your learners review functions and then go through a...

Sal takes your class’ newfound (or growing) knowledge of graphs of lines to the next level. He presents a few word problems in which mathematicians need to understand how to use linear function graphs.

An activity that could function as a review or as a quiz, this worksheet prompts students to find two different linear functions that satisfy the given equation. Students sketch the graph of two linear equations. They identify the domain...

In this Algebra I worksheet, 9th graders match vocabulary words relating to non-linear functions to their definition in a drag and drop game format.  The one page interactive worksheet contains seven matching questions and is self...

Don't forget the tables! The previous lessons in this five-part series examined the linear equation and graph relationship. The current lesson adds tables to the mix. At completion, individuals should be able to create a table of values,...

Slope-intercept form is key to understanding linear relationships. Learners explore the relationship between the equation, graph, and key features of linear functions as they view a video lesson. They then complete practice problems to...

Batter up! As an assessment task, learners write linear functions to model the cost of baseball jerseys. They then determine which of two companies would charge a cheaper rate to buy baseball jerseys.

In this algebra worksheet, learners identify and label functions as linear or not. They find the domain and range of each function. There are 15 multiple choice questions.

This math packet provides an opportunity for learners to graph two linear equations on a coordinate grid and determine the slope and y-intercept of each. They use the equation of five lines to find the slope and y-intercepts, and then...
