PROJECT for Chapter 5 – Linear Equations Formula Book
Directions: You will create a book that includes all of the linear equation information we will study in
Chapter 5. Each page must include the title, any formulas needed, and a complete example, which
includes all descriptions listed below! Be as creative as you want, but make sure you include all the
necessary information!
There will be checkpoints along the way where you have to turn in the work that has been completed for the
project thus far. Your teacher will check to make sure that you have started the project and are working
toward a finished product. Please make up your own examples and DO NOT use ones from our notes.
You can use printer paper, construction paper, markers, colored pencils, and any other type of art supplies.
Neatness and creativity count! See page descriptions below!
