Do properties of equations hold true for inequalities? Teach solving inequalities through the theme of properties. Your class discovers that the multiplication property of equality doesn't hold true for inequalities when multiplying by a...

This is a comprehensive lesson on creating and solving equations and systems of equations and inequalities. Problems range from basic linear equations to more complex systems of equations and inequalities based on a real-world examples....

English and math have more in common than you think. Make a connection between a compound sentence and a compound inequality with an activity that teaches learners the difference between an "and" and "or" inequality through solutions...

Can you justify that mathematically?  Help learners see the process of solving as using mathematical properties rather than a set of steps to memorize in the fourth module of a nine-part Algebra I series. The module contains six...

Guide your class through the intricacies of solving compound inequalities with a resource that compares solutions of an equation, less than inequality, and greater than inequality. Once pupils understand the differences, the...

Graph and solve linear equations in two variables. The class relates the concepts of linear equations to the real world.

This lesson will provide students with an introduction to solving equations and inequalities numerically (using a table), graphically, and algebraically. they devise a table that would produce information about the number of hot dogs...

Solve equations and graph systems of inequalities. Designed as a instructional activity to reinforce these concepts, learners revisit shading and boundaries along with solving linear inequalities.

Put geometry skills to the test! Learners solve compound inequalities and then graph the inequalities on a coordinate plane using their geometric skills. They identify the slope and y-intercept in order to graph correctly. I like this...

You can't go wrong with a lesson that involves candy! Learners solve and graph one-variable inequalities and use candy to graph the solution. Individuals associate open circle graphs with life savers and closed circle graphs with round...

Learners solve multi-step equations and apply the process of elimination. In this algebra lesson, students solve linear inequalities and equations using linear combination and evaluation. They graph their results on a number line...

Systems of equations and inequalities model contextual situations. A set of 12 lessons build a solid understanding of writing and solving systems of equations and inequalities using a variety of methods. The module is the fifth in a...

Demonstrate the meaning of an absolute inequality using three different methods. Here, scholars explore absolute value inequalities through graphing, number line distance, and compound inequalities. Pupils complete various activities to...

Play a game of capture the points. Young scholars receive a number line with specific points graphed and must write an inequality that captures all the points. The second task of the algebra project is to write an inequality with...

Explore the concept of systems of equations in two variables and use matrices to solve them. Young mathematicians enter coefficients and constants into a matrix and then solve using row reduction. Instructions on how to use the shortcut...

Students solve inequalities using more than two steps. In this algebra lesson, students solve inequalities using addition, substitution, multiplication and division. When dividing or multiplying by a negative number, you have to switch...

Students solve inequalities and graph. In this algebra lesson, students rewrite inequalities in the slope intercept form and graph using the slope and intercept. They shade the correct side of the line using greater than or less than as...

Lesson 16 in the series of 28 is a mid-module assessment. Learners simplify expressions, write and solve equations, and write and solve inequalities. Most questions begin as word problems adding a critical thinking component to the...

Graph inequalities and discuss the difference in their slopes. Learners observe rate of change as they compare linear, quadratic, and cubic functions.

Here is an engaging lesson on solving equations with two variables. Have the class rewrite linear equations in the slope intercept form, y=mx + b. They graph the lines using the slope and y-intercepts.

Teach solving absolute value inequalities through inquiry. Groups use their knowledge of absolute value and solving inequalities to find a solution set to an absolute value inequality. Working collaboratively encourages discussion,...

Learn how to solve inequalities and graph their answers. Students use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to solve problems. They analyze their graph using the TI calculator.

High schoolers solve inequalities problems. For this algebra lesson, students graph the solution of inequalities on a number line. They discuss boundaries and open or closed intervals.

High school classes can use manipulatives too! Offer hands-on, interactive lessons that venture away from the typical day in your algebra class. Young mathematicians will be involved in collaborative learning, visual...
