    Vocabulary

    • Solution of a system of linear equations
    • Substitution method
    • Elimination method
    • Graphically solve
    • System of linear equations
    • Solving systems by addition
    • Tabular methods

    Knowledge

    Students know:
    • Appropriate use of properties of addition, multiplication and equality.
    • Techniques for producing and interpreting graphs of linear equations.
    • Techniques for producing and interpreting tables of linear equations.
    • The conditions under which a system of linear equations has 0, 1, or infinitely many solutions.

    Skills

    Students are able to:
    • Accurately perform the operations of multiplication and addition, and techniques for manipulating equations.
    • Graph linear equations precisely.
    • Create tables and locate solutions from the tables for systems of linear equations.
    • Use estimation to find approximate solutions on a graph.
