The typical system of equations or inequalities problem gives the system and asks for the graph of the solution. This task turns the problem around. It gives a solution set and asks for the system that corresponds to it. The purpose of this task is to give students a chance to go beyond the typical problem and make the connections between points in the coordinate plane and solutions to inequalities and equations. Students have to focus on what the graph is showing.

This lesson is to help students review solving two-step equations with integers. Students will create a review sheet or presentation to help them remember the different ways to solve the four types of two-step equations. This should take about 1-2 class periods, as it is a review. Students can complete this assignment synchronous together in a classroom, asynchronous on their own time as long as they have the Mac Applications needed. This is made for my 7th-grade math class using the standard:Standard 7.EE.4: Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.a. Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px+q=rand p(x+q)=r, where p, q, and rare specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach.The only author is me, Krystin Carter-Sanchez.

Parts (d) and (e) of this task constitute a very advanced application of the skill of making use of structure: in (d) students are being asked to use the defining property of even and odd functions to manipulate expressions involving function notation. In (e) they are asked to see the structure in the system of two equations involving functions.
