Algebra Week of 10/26/2009

Monday:  AIA Relations Project

Learning Target:  Finding patterns and Rules in Arithmetic Sequences.

  • AIA Relations – Finish in Groups
    • Part 1 – Find the Rule
    • Part 1b – Use the rule to find more points
    • Part 2 Extension
      • Plot points on a graph
      • Look for Patterns
      • Find a rule for the patterns
  • Make connections to other types of graphing
    • Slope
    • Linear Equations

Tuesday: Graphing & Writing Linear Equations

Learning Target: You will understand how to recognize and write different forms of Linear Equations.

  • How do arithmetic sequences relate to linear equations?
    • What is slope?
    • Where can you find the other number?
  • Slope-Intercept Form Warm-up (Textbook Lesson 5-3 & 5-4)
    • Write an Equations to a Line containing points (3, -2) & (6, 4)
    • What should the equations look like?
    • What do we need to write the equations?
    • How can we find them?
    • Where do they go once we find them?
    • Graph to Check
  • Class Practice with different givens
    • Two Points
    • One point and the slope
    • Two intercepts
  • Direct Variation (Textbook Lesson 5-2)
    • Y=KX
    • Suppose y varies directly as x, if y = -18 when x = 6, find x when y = 6.
    • Pg 266 for example 4.
    • How can we use Ratios to solve?
    • Class Practice
