Elimination - Systems of Equations - PowerPoint Introduction Lesson
This is a zipped file that contains a 6 slide PowerPoint file and a 2 page pdf file.
The PowerPoint has 6 fully animated example problems. You can explain steps and walk around the room instead of writing on the board. The pdf file is for students work along as you solve the 6 problems together.
Each problem has two linear equations given in standard form and the answer is reported as an ordered pair. The complexity of the problems increases throughout the slideshow. The first two problem
