These word problems will elicit systems of equations for students to solve. The file includes an opener, three examples, a work sheet, and an answer key.

Examples, problems, solutions, and web resources are provided. Students are asked to translate word problems into systems of inequalities and profit functions (objective functions). Online resources are included for differentiation, asynchronous learning, learning for those who miss classes due to absences.

This activity is about teams of two students solving eight basic level linear programming problems from start to finish, which includes converting words to inequalities, graphing linear inequalities, finding points of intersection with lines, determining the feasible region, calculating profit at each vertex of the feasible region, and reporting the maximum profit. This activity makes available access to six instructional videos that detail the processes of solving linear programming problems.

Students have to match tiles. Content contains systems of linear equations, matrices, slope, parallel, perpendicular, and graphing lines. Students have to solve systems of equations, convert systems of equations into matrix equations, manipulate equations of a line, determine the slope of a line, ...

Students are to be placed into teams, possibly 3 – 4 students/team. Students are to match functions with their domains/ranges, horizontal/vertical asymptotes, and graphs. It is suggested that students use more than a single period to perform these tasks. The teacher is able to use less functions or not all the columns. By shrinking either the number of functions or not using certain characteristics (like domain/range or asymptotes), the assignment can be made to fit within an entire class pe

This discovery activity allows students to construct their own knowledge with translations of functions, namely quadratic and cubic functions. This is a guided activity best coupled within a cooperative learning environment.

This worksheet includes guided notes that contains a graphic organizer. To calculate the total surface are of these cones, students have to first use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the slant height.

This addresses how to use a profit function (a two-variable objective function) within the broader context of linear programming. It has students practice converting feasible regions into systems of inequalities, finding vertices of feasible regions, and using profit functions to determine maximum profit values. A partial answer key is made available as well as access to six instructional videos that tackle all the steps with linear programming problems.

This MATHguide resource contains access to a lesson and two interactive quizmasters. The lesson requires the teacher to go over one or two class examples, using Socratic questioning techniques. Then, students will use one interactive quizmaster related to the gas laws to do two problems. Next, students choose four different science areas to get their next four problems. The MATHguide quizmasters will check students for accuracy and allow them to change their solutions. The website checks th

This set of activities is designed to prepare students for the multiple steps and rigors of linear programming. Example regions are provided for the teacher and student pairs. Also a worksheet is also provided.

This document contains guided notes for matrix equations. It contains fill-in-the-blank sections, which research shows helps students learn. The critical nature of using inverse matrices on the correct side of the equation demands that students receive assistance via guided notes with this topic.

Within the context of systems of equations, matrix operations are handled. Systems of equations, equations of lines, and manipulation of linear equations are targeted. Parallel and perpendicular lines are also included, as well as the point-slope formula.

This packet addresses solving proportional inequalities or rational inequalities. There is a brief activity, two examples, and a worksheet.

Students, placed into groups of 2 - 3 students/each group, are asked to match graphs with inequalities. Inequalities are provided in standard form and slope-intercept form. Videos are provided as are interactive quizzes for differentiated learning.

This worksheet contains basic, intermediate, and advanced problems. It also provides free online support via lessons at MATHguide.com.

Students have to know the difference between rows and columns. They must know that an element is one value within a matrix. After that, students practice making matrices, thereby demonstrating that they know what the terms mean. The last problem allows for a great pair-share sub-activity.

Options: 1) Students watch a thorough video that explains matrix multiplication or 2) the teacher runs through some examples on matrix multiplication. The video is preferred because it contains dynamic graphics, textboxes, and thorough explanations. Next, students work on the given worksheet, possibly within a two-person group format.

This online generated activity presents students with their own individual problems and are assessed for free by MATHguide.com. Two different levels of interactive problems are presented to check for understanding of the translation of quadratics (parabolas). Student creativity is also required to graph larger concepts of polynomials, like zeros, factors, maximum, and minimum points.

Students have to know properties of lines as they apply to parallel and perpendicular lines. They also should have had exposure the point-slope formula. Students will go over teacher directed notes – included. Then they will be engaged with a worksheet that utilizes a MATHguide webpage that has been provided. The website will check students' abilities using the point-slope formula.

This cooperative learning activity has students analyze graphs and equations of quadratics. There is a great deal of higher order thinking that is addressed. The sheet provides free online lesson support via MATHguide.com.
