Meal out
This resource features a task that explores matching an equation to a situation, solving the equation and then using the information to solve a further problem.
Ten people go out for dinner and have a choice of a three-course meal for $15 or a two-course meal for $12. The bill comes to $141. Five equations...
Building and solving linear equations
The initial activity in this resource asks students to start with x = 6 and write further equations where x = 6 is the solution. For example, subtracting two from both sides of the equation gives
x - 2 = 4
The next step is to use the equation given to build a more complicated one. An example is
...Classifying solutions to systems of equations
The first activity in this resource asks students to consider x = 5 and answer the question ‘what value is y’? An initial discussion builds up understanding of graphical representations of linear equations.
This lesson develops solving pairs of linear equations by considering their graphical representations...
Solving linear equations in one variable
This resource develops the concept of solving equations where the unknown appears once or more than once.
This lesson develops solving linear equations in one variable with rational number coefficients. Additionally, collecting terms, expanding expressions, and categorising linear equations according to the...
