"Solving Two-Step Equations"

Today you will learn how to solve and create two-step equations

1) Bellringer

2) Watch Flocabulary

3) Learn how to work two-step equations

4) Break into groups for an activity!!!

5) Read articles about Functions in Daily Life

5) Work on homework or go to Interactive Sites

To refresh your memory on PEMDAS watch Flocabulary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zanq7gmXY88

Last Week we learned how to solve one step equations... let's review! http://www.algebralab.org/lessons/lesson.aspx?file=Algebra_OneVariableOneStep.xml

Need Extra practice with One-step??

work some more one-step equations on this site

***You think you're good on one-step equations??

Then lets move on to next lesson:

Two-step Equations! :) 

What is a Two-Step Equation?

A two-step equation is an equation with BOTH addition/subraction AND mutplication/divison.

Read about what a Two-Step Equation is here: http://www.basic-mathematics.com/solving-two-step-equations.html

For example:

It is your turn to create your own two-step equations.

Remember...

•Only use one variable, but it can be placed anywhere in the equation

•There has to be addition or subtraction AND multiplication or division for it to be considered a “two-step” equation

•There has to be an equals sign (=). Without the equals, it cannot be solved for the variable

••When you have created 5 equations, we wil trade our equations between groups. 

Each student will hand in all 5 equations worked out.

**Need some examples??**

Functions in the Real World

Did you know functions are used in your daily life? 

These articles are examples of functions and equations that are in your daily life without you even realizing it!!!

*Functions as machines in the real world:
