4 Da 1 Lesson: Solving sstems of equations graphicall Objectives o Students will recognize properties of sstems of equations o Students will estimate solutions to sstems b graphing Extra Materials o None Opening Activit Student Bellwork: The students have 5 minutes to complete the following problem. The students will then pass the paper to a different student and the will correct each others papers. The teacher will collect the papers after we correct them as a class. Main Activit Have the students graph the following on separate graphs (provided b teacher): 3x - 5 2x 2 x 4 This will determine who knows how to use their graphing calculator and who needs more help/practice. As a class, we will discuss how to find the solution to a sstem of linear equations using the graphs of the lines. NOTE This method can onl be used if solving for 1 or 2 variables due to the limited powers (no 3-D capabilities on the graphing calculators) This will be mentioned to the students earl in the lesson. The students will find the solution(s) to the following sstems while working in groups. Then, each group will present one sstem and show how the arrived at the solution(s). Ï 1 Ï x - 7 Ï 3x + 13 x Ó -2x + 5 Ó x + 1 Óx Ï9x Ó 9x + 6 Ï + 3 7x 5. Ó 6x + 2 Ï 5x 6. Ó -3x + 1 Closing Activit Have the students write a brief sentence or two answering this question: In example 4, there was no solution because the lines were parallel. Give a situation where there would be an infinite amount of solutions to a sstem of linear equations. Think about the parallel lines example. Homework Page 283 # 10-12, 15 4

5 Da 2 Lesson: Solving sstems of equations algebraicall using substitution Objectives o Students will solve 2x2 and 3x3 sstems using substitution o Students will recognize properties of sstems of equations Extra Materials o Class set of Lesson Master 5-3 B Opening Activit Student Bellwork: The students have 5 minutes to complete the following problem. The students will then pass the paper to a different student and the will correct each others papers. The teacher will collect the papers after we correct them as a class. Have students solve the following: If -1, solve the following equations for x: 1. x x x + Answers: 1. x 6 2. x 3 3. x 7 Main Activit Students will learn how to solve sstems of equations using the substitution method and Lesson Master 5-3 B. Together we will discuss how to use substitution to solve for the variables. The teacher will put the following example on the board: Ask the students how to change this from two different equations to one equation that is equivalent. Answer: ; because the both equal 5, the must both be equal to each other. Discuss when and wh we use substitution. - It is used when we have more than 1 unknown (variable) and one of the equations can be solved for 1 variable. Then we substitute that variable s value in terms of the other variable(s) into the other equation. Discuss how to use substitution. - This is when we, as a class, will work through the odd numbered problems on the Lesson Master 5-3 B. The students will solve 2x2 and 3x3 sstems using substitution. 5

13 Da 4 Lesson: Review of Linear Combinations and Solving sstems of equations algebraicall using matrices on graphing calculator Objectives o Students will solve 2x2 and 3x3 sstems using matrices on graphing calculator o Students will recognize properties of sstems of equations Extra Materials o Students worksheets from previous class da (Lesson Master 5-4 B) Opening Activit Student Bellwork: The students have 5 minutes to complete the following problem. The students will then pass the paper to a different student and the will correct each others papers. The teacher will collect the papers after we correct them as a class. Have students solve the following: Solve the following sstem of equations using linear combinations: 2x 4 Answer: x 4 -x Main Activit Students will review how to use the linear combination method to solve sstems of equations. As a class, we will go over the homework problems that caused the students difficult. After all homework questions have been answered and the students have done a 3x3 sstem, we will quickl set up the matrix method on the calculators. STEPS: Turn calculator on to the main menu. Go to EQUA and hit EXE. This is a simultaneous process, so hit F1 for simultaneous. Next, we need to enter the number of unknowns. For a 3x3 we will have 3 unknowns (variables). Enter in all of the coefficients and the constants as prompted on the screen. After all the numbers are entered, hit F1 to solve. This will give the answer matrix to the 3x3 sstem we entered. Ask the students which wa the prefer. I guarantee it will be the matrix method. Closing Activit Have the students tr another sstem from their homework on the calculator. Have them do as man as time will allow. Discuss with them quickl that this will not however be accepted as full credit work on an exam. There is some work involved and we will discuss that tomorrow. 13

14 Da 5 Lesson: Solving sstems of equations algebraicall using matrices on the calculator and wh it works Objectives o Students will solve 2x2 and 3x3 sstems using matrices on the calculator o Students will recognize properties of sstems of equations o Students will understand the steps involved to solve sstems using the matrix method Extra Materials o Class set of worksheets Opening Activit Student Bellwork: The students have 5 minutes to complete the following problem. The students will then pass the paper to a different student and the will correct each others papers. The teacher will collect the papers after we correct them as a class. Main Activit Have students solve the following sstem using the matrix method: 2x 2 + 4z 7 Answer: x -33-4x + 2 3z x z 1 z -45 Have the students learn how the matrix method works without actuall showing them how to use a matrix. We will as a class go through the steps to solving a sstem using the matrix method. Step 1: Change sstem of equations to matrix equation: Ï2x 2 + 4z 7-4x + 2 3z 14 Óx z 1 This sstem becomes the following matrix coefficient matrix constant matrix È Èx È 7 Í Í Í Í Í Í 14 ÍÎ ÍÎ z ÍÎ 1 variable matrix Step 2: Label the matrices: È 2 Í Í - 4 ÍÎ Èx È Í Í Í Í ÍÎ z ÍÎ 1 A B 14

15 Step 3: Multipl [ A ] -1 x [ A ] so that all we have on the left side of the equation is the variable because we have an equation, we need to multipl [ A ] -1 x [ B ] on the right side of the equation. matrix. And, So we now have: [ A ] -1 x [ A] Step 4: [ ] -1 A x [ ] Èx Í Í ÍÎ z Èx Í Í ÍÎ z [ A ] -1 x [ B] A cancel out to become the identit matrix (essentiall 1) and so we are now [ A ] -1 x [ B ], where [ A ] -1 x [ ] B is the answer matrix. left with: This is enough work to show for full credit. Now, the students will put numbers into the calculator to get the answer matrix. The will work on the worksheets in pairs and solve for the variables, showing all of their work. Closing Activit Explain in our own words wh [ A ] -1 x [ ] A cancels out (becomes 1). Give an example using numbers. 1 1 Example Answer: 2 1, where is the inverse and 1 is the identit. 2 2 Homework Finish worksheet 15
