In this solving for the unknown worksheet, 11th graders solve 10 different equations that include determining the unknown variable in each one. First, they set up the equations so that the insides are equal to each other. Then, students...

In this function worksheet, students solve functions using given function rules. Function equations include absolute value, real numbers, and exponents. This one-page worksheet contains 30 functions values for the student to solve.

Eighth graders extend their learning of graphing linear equations and are introduced to connecting patterns in tables and graphs to represent algebraic representations. They then determine patterns and extrapolate information from these...

Students analyze relating a model to an algebraic equation and visa versa. Patterns are reviewed in detail and then in pairs new models are created and then translated into a word problem or equation. They illustrate their models on...

In this math learning exercise, students solve systems of equations using the elimination or substitution method. There are five problems on this one-page learning exercise.

In this math instructional activity, students find an equation of a curve such that the slope at the point (x, y) on the curve is 3x2 +2 and (−1, 1) is a point on the curve.

Students write the equation of a line given the slope and y-intercept. In this algebra lesson plan, students are given a point a the line and the slope of the line and are asked to write an equation of the line. They relate lines to real...

Students use the quadratic formula to solve application problems. The first problem relates to the path of a football thrown from the top of the bleachers. Students compute the time it will take the football to reach certain heights. In...

In this practice exit exam, pupils complete a variety of basic algebra problems on an Algebra I skill level. They simplify expressions containing variables, factor quadratic equations, find the slope of a line, identify the x-intercept,...

In this identifying pivots learning exercise, students use algebra to find equivalent systems of equations. This four-page learning exercise contains examples, explanations and approximately ten problems.

Students change verbal expressions to algebraic equations. They practice the vocabulary of algebraic equations.

Young scholars imagine that they own a sneaker company. They are asked how they would know if their company made a profit. Students determine the number of sneakers of each type they need to sell in order to "break even." They are...

In this math worksheet, students find the solutions to the differential equations. They also investigate the application of recognizing the parts of the equation.
