Translating practical situations into Mathematical language

We continue to explore algebraic relationships and equations.

Below are a list of learning intentions or things that you should understand and continue to practice:


1) Operations with integers.  This includes multiplication/division as well as subtraction/addition

2) Solving for x in an equation.  This includes when there is a negative coefficient beside x (For example -4x - 6 = 14).

We are spending some time looking at how we can take real life situations and translate them into mathematical language.

Here are the examples we started in class.  We will be working on them again tomorrow and then they are homework.
