Teacher(s): Time: Burris The Course Organizer This Course: Algebra I Part 1 is about 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Using properties and modeling to solve equations and inequalities. Applications will include functions Course Questions: How are order of operations and algebriac properties used to evaluate algebraic expressions and equations? How do you express a radical expression in simpliest radical form? How do you use field properties of real numbers and properties of equality to solve equaions and inequalities? How do you use an equation written in slope intercept form to graph a line? How are systems of equations and systems of inequalities used to solve and graph real-world application problems? What are functions and how do you determine if a relation is a function or not? What are the exponent rules and how are they used to simplify expressions?
