The Number of Solutions for a System of Equations.
Students define lines as dependent, independent and no solution. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify the type of solutions produces by systems of equations. They discuss the type of lines formed given a linear pair.
Curated OER
Solving Systems vis Elimination
Students solve systems of equation using elimination. In this algebra lesson, students identify the type of solutions produces by systems of equations. They discuss the type of lines formed given a linear pair.
