Objective: SWBAT graph linear equations using a table in order to apply to real world
applications. TEKS: MMA.1A, MMA.1B, MMA.1C, MMA.2A, MMA.3A, MMA.5A
Activities: Warm Up: Graph linear functions from standard form using a table.
Notes: Go over how to solve the linear equation from standard form (AX + BY = C) to
y = mx + b slope-intercept form, then explain how to graph on a coordinate plane using a
table. Demonstrate technology: calculator Application Problems: Show how to solve a real
world application problem from linear equations. Running problem
Guided Practice: Students finish Handout: Graphing linear functions from standard form
using a table.
Assessment: Exit Ticket
Materials: Handout/ spiral notes
Follow Up/HW: finish handout (graphing lines)
Objective: SWBAT find the x-and y-intercepts of a linear equations. SWBAT find meaning of
the x- and y-intercepts from a real life applications. TEKS, MMA.1A, MMA.1B, MMA.1C,
MMA.2A, MMA.3A
Activities: Warm Up: Graph a linear function from standard form using a table.
Notes: Demonstrate multiple ways to find the x- and y-intercepts. Also show the multirepresentations of how to find the x- and y-intercepts from a table, graph, and equation. Use
technology to find x- and y-intercepts. Show the meaning of the x- and y-intercepts with real
world applications.
