A task where students model the time it will take to digitize a book as function of the number of pages using a linear equation. They then solve various problems with that equation. No algebraic solving is required. There are 30 different versions of the task so that students can work together without giving the answers away to each other. A pdf is provided including an answer key. If you want to modify the activity there is also an editable docx file which uses a mail merge from an excel fil

An introduction to linear relations using patterns. Students complete the next several terms of various linear patterns including those involving negative numbers, they are then tasked with finding the 115th term of a particular pattern. I use this as an intro to linear relations, as it creates a need to know and an understanding of how the equation of a line/arithmetic sequence works.

A practice on rounding numbers to a particular number of decimals. Some but not all answers are provided.
