I used these cards for playing Grudgeball. Students were able to read the cards easily and work on the problems in groups.

I used this to practice for a test. The first slide had a problem with choice A. The line was behind the graph. Is there a way you can fix that and let me upload it again? Thanks.

Questions & Answers

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).

CCSS8.EE.B.5

Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. For example, compare a distance-time graph to a distance-time equation to determine which of two moving objects has greater speed.

CCSS8.EE.B.6

Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation 𝘺 = 𝘮𝘹 for a line through the origin and the equation 𝘺 = 𝘮𝘹 + 𝘣 for a line intercepting the vertical axis at 𝘣.
