For each equation choose a value for
Decide if each statement is true or false. Explain your reasoning.
Discuss your thinking with your partner. If you disagree, work to reach an agreement.
Your teacher will give you a set of cards. One partner has 6 cards labeled A through F and one partner has 6 cards labeled a through f. Cards with the same letter, for example Cards A and a, have an equation on one card and a coordinate pair
The partner with the equation asks the partner with a solution for either the
The partner with the equation uses this value to find the other value, explaining each step as they go.
The partner with the coordinate pair checks their partner’s work. If the coordinate pair does not match, both partners should look through the steps to find and correct any errors. Otherwise, both partners move onto the next set of cards.
Keep playing until you have finished all the cards.
Consider the graph of the linear equation
Since
Sometimes the coordinates of a solution cannot be determined exactly by looking at the graph. For example, when
The equation can also be used to check whether a pair of values is a solution to the equation by seeing if the values make the equation true. For example, since the values
