Use this worksheet for practice or review solving linear equations in one variable. Problems range from multiple-step problems involving parentheses and combining like terms, to word problems, to equations with no solution or infinitely...

Start this activity with a brief description of how to solve absolute value inequalities. A space is provided to help classify the inequalities into types (greater than, less than, or equal to) and for learners to show how to graph their...

Twelfth graders explore Derive.  In this Calculus instructional activity, 12th graders investigate the menus and tools available in Derive.  In addition to the familiarization part of the instructional activity, students...

High schoolers collect and graph data. In this statistics lesson, students analyze their plotted data using a scatter plot. They identify lines as having positive, negative or no correlation.

By learning to select the best representation for three meal plans, students compare three meal plans to determine the best choice. Data for the meal plans is sorted on a table, as an algebraic equation, and graphed on a coordinate grid....

Learners factor polynomials using the sum and difference of cubes. They also learn connections between the graph and expression.

Get a line on the snakes. The assessment task requires the class to determine the species of unknown snakes based upon collected data. Individuals analyze two scatter plots and determine the most likely species for five...

Population density, it is not all that it is plotted to be. Pupils analyze a scatter plot of population versus area for some of the states in the US. The class members respond to eight questions about the graph, specific points and...

The class practices, on paper and/or on a TI graphing calculator the concepts of how to add, multiply, divide and subtract complex numbers using the correct property.

Mathematicians use an inquiry method to solve linear equations. In this linear equations lesson, students practice solving equations using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They solve multi-step equations and equations...

Many problems in life have more than one possible solution, and the same is true for advanced mathematics. Scholars solve seven problems that all have at least two solutions. Then three higher-level thinking questions challenge them to...

An interesting instructional activity on hypothesizing about the diameter of a drop of blood that is splattered. To test their theories, learners work in groups to make blood droplets splatter from different heights. They use graphed...

Seventh graders investigate the concept of looking at the data put in a variety of ways that could include graphs or data sets. They analyze data critically in order to formulate some sound conclusions based on real data. Students graph...

Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

Help your class look for patterns as they create their own arithmetic and geometric sequences. Engage learners with an introductory discussion on sequences and use the applet to let them explore how sequences are formed. Teachers might...

Ready to introduce your class to the coordinate plane? This website includes a detailed lesson plan that includes two interactive games to help learners practice graphing ordered pairs. The scripted discussion is a little cheesy and a...

Horses need exercise, too. Scholars create linear equations to model the perimeter of exercise fields for horses. They finish by solving their equations for the length and width of the fields.

Practice solving linear equations by graphing. Scholars learn to solve multi-step linear equations in one variable by graphing both sides of the equation separately. They use graphing calculators to find the intersection of the graphs.

Think critically — and linearly by applying linear equations to solve real-world problems. Young mathematicians write equations to model the profit on popcorn and cotton candy at a carnival and solve problems using these equations.

Fourth graders are introduced to arithmetic and geometric sequences. In this mathematics lesson plan, 4th graders produce a variety of sequences by varying the starting number, multiplier, and the add-on number.

In this surface area and volume worksheet, students solve 4 short answer and multiple choice problems.  Students find the volume and surface area of cylinders and prisms.

Need more detail in showing your class how to solve two-step equations and proportions? This lesson plan outlines the steps young mathematicians need to solve simple equations and check their results. 

High schoolers use an interactive website or cd rom to graph equations. The lesson plan is not very clearly written. The use of the website is essential or the educational software that can be purchased from the Prentice Hall publisher.

Students, while using a graphing calculator, graph systems of conic sections as well as identify their solutions. They complete various word problems dealing with conic sections with their calculators. In addition, students sketch graphs...
