This was a great resource for my Algebra 1 course

Met expectations

Great value

Standards-aligned

I used the more complicated word problems as an example in my PPT. I hand out a 2 pages packet of the Henry the Woodworker to half of my students and a similar packet of Hats and Scarves. to the rest. Some students struggled to find all the constraints. These were great examples to introduce optimization. Day 2 I went over the precise solutions on the board and they enjoyed working on this concept. Thank you!

I used this for a linear programming lesson. Students typically struggle with this, so I really wanted to find questions that had integer values to introduce this topic. I loved the simplicity of the numbers as it made it easier for students to understand what to do. We can use this to increase difficulty later to decimal and fraction numbers.

Questions & Answers

Standards

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

CCSSHSA-CED.A.3

Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or non-viable options in a modeling context. For example, represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods.

CCSSHSA-REI.D.12

Graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half-plane (excluding the boundary in the case of a strict inequality), and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes.
