Mathematics (2019) Grade(s): 7 - Grade 7 Accelerated

MA19.7A.20

Represent constraints by equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or nonviable options in a modeling context. Limit to contexts arising from linear. [Algebra I with Probability, 13 partial]

Unpacked Content

Knowledge

Students know:
  • How to construct a linear function that models the relationship between two quantities.
  • how to graph two variable equations using appropriate scale.
  • how to interpret a graph of two variable equations in context.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • Write and graph a system of linear equations or inequalities based on real-world context.
  • Interpret the solutions to equations or inequalities as a viable or nonviable answer based on models created from the equations or inequalities.

Understanding

Students understand that:
  • The solutions to linear systems of equations/inequalities, while sometimes infinite in theory, can be limited to have more realistic meaning in real-world contexts.

Vocabulary

  • System of equations
  • Scale
  • Linear Function
  • Constraint
