WEEK 23 - AFTER WINTER BREAK

February 22, 2015

I hope everyone had a FANTASTIC BREAK!

This week the plan is:

Math 9 - We will be going more in depth about linear equations and inequalities.

Math Review Skills:
http://ca.ixl.com/math/grade-9

So far we have done:  Numbers, Operations, Coordinate graphs, Polynomials, Monomials, Solve Equations, Systems of Linear Equations, Linear functions, Exponents, Relations and Functions,  some of Percents, Single Variable Inequalities and Properties,

More specifically we will be covering Outcomes P9.2 and P9.3 in the Saskatchewan curriculum for grade 9 math.  

Outcome: P9.2

Model and solve situational questions using linear equations of the form:

• ax = b
• x/a = b, a ≠ 0
• ax + b = c
• x/a + b = c, a ≠ 0
• ax = b + cx
• a(x + b) = c
• ax + b = cx + d
• a(bx + c) = d(ex + f)
• a/x = b, x ≠ 0

where a, b, c, d, e, and f are rational numbers.

Demonstrate understanding of single variable linear inequalities with rational coefficients including:

• solving inequalities
• verifying
• comparing
• graphing.
