Unit 1

Equations and Inequalities

Learning Goal :
The student is expected to create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems explaining each step and constructing viable argument to justify their solution method. When given a real world scenario they must also state any constraints and interpret the solution of the equations or inequalities in its context.

Standards in this unit

Explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step while recalling the properties of equality starting from the assumption that the original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method.

Create equations and inequalities with one variable and use them to solve problems and model real-world situations Describe the relationships between the quantities in the problem, express these relationships using mathematical operations to create an

appropriate equation or inequality

Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or non-viable options in a modeling context.

Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations. For example, rearrange Ohm’s law V = IR to highlight resistance R.
