Planning a City - Using Linear Equations

Description

In this assessment, students become city planners and use their math skills and creativity to plan a city on a coordinate plane. All students begin with one main road and one river, but each city will be unique to the student creating it.

Students will showcase their skills with:

• Slope Y- Intercept Method

• Standard Form

• Graphing linear Equations

• Plotting Points

• Parallel and Perpendicular Lines

This product includes a rubric, coordinate plane, editable student printout, and PDF version. Note: Due to the creative nature of this project, answers will vary and student products will each be unique.

Questions & Answers

Standards

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

CCSS8.EE.C.8

Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.

CCSS8.EE.C.8a

Understand that solutions to a system of two linear equations in two variables correspond to points of intersection of their graphs, because points of intersection satisfy both equations simultaneously.

CCSS8.EE.C.8b

Solve systems of two linear equations in two variables algebraically, and estimate solutions by graphing the equations. Solve simple cases by inspection. For example, 3𝘹 + 2𝘺 = 5 and 3𝘹 + 2𝘺 = 6 have no solution because 3𝘹 + 2𝘺 cannot simultaneously be 5 and 6.
