What students learn

In this lesson, students apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions. Student reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities. Students also learn to represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and independent variables.

  • Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. View one or more parts of an expression as a single entity. Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables.

  • Apply the properties of operations to identify and generate equivalent expressions.

  • Use variables and expressions to represent real world problems. Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving simple equations. Also, solve simple inequalities.

  • Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another; analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation.
