Creating Parallelogram

In this solving one variable equations learning exercise, students solve 30 equations and word problems. Students write and solve one variable equations given a word problem.  Students solve each equation by simplifying like terms.

Lets keep the system working and show learners the three ways to solve linear systems of equations. Each method includes step-by-step instructions to work their way through the problem. The same problem is used for each method to show...

Where did all the variables go? Scholars learn how to interpret an equation when they eliminate all variables during the solving process. They interpret the solution as infinite solutions or no solutions. 

Put on your thinking caps because middle school math has never been more interesting in this huge resource full of thought provoking questions. Written as a newsletter, the resource has 10 two-page newsletters with a variety of...

When guess and check gets old, it's time to start graphing! An instructive lesson explains how to solve a system of linear equations using graphing. Equations are in both slope-intercepts and standard form. 

This inequality word problem would make a good warm-up activity for a class studying single-variable inequalities. This video creates and solves an inequality based on a short-word problem about unit cost.

Here is an equation in which the first step is to use the distributive property to remove the parenthesis. Then, it is solved for the variables. Since variables are on both sides of the equation, it is important to verify the answer by...

Apply different algebraic concepts to solve a system of equations using substitution. The video tutorial explains each step of the process. The instructor then shows how to check the solution to ensure it is the proper answer.

School subjects connect when your young scholars use math to edit English. Math allows you to convert an entire paragraph into a simple equation or inequality. Examples encourage learners to write expressions, equations, and inequalities...

Make math easier by showing the class that even formulas can be parallel — just explore the area of a parallelogram. Learners discover how to create a rectangle from a parallelogram, then make the connection that the...
