Solving Equations

67

x + 3 = 60

x = 57

123

2x - 100 = 50

x = 75

250

3x + 3x + 3x + 3x + 1 = 3x + 1000

x = 111

375

2x + 3 + 2x + 3 + 2x + 3 + x = 3(2x + 3) + 2 

x = 2

600

 (m)(m)(m) - 99 = -180

x = -3

Understanding Functions

67

f(3) = 9

What is the input?

3

123

f(2) = 9

What is the coordinate?

(2, 9)

250

Give me a function rule for the following pattern.

3 --> 5

10 --> 19

45 --> 89

f(x) = 2x - 1

375

f(x) = 2(3x - 11)

My output is 12. What was my input?

x = 5

600

f(x) = -3x + x + 1

Evaluate the output if x = 2k + 3

-4x - 5

Graphing Lines

67

y = mx + b 

What is b?

The y-intercept.

123

123 points for every correct statement.

How can you tell an equation is a linear equation?

The x term is to the power of 1.

There are no exponents such as x².

There are no absolute value symbols.

x is not in the denominator of a fraction

x is not underneath a square root symbol

3x - 4 = 2x + x - 7(x + 5)

Would be linear.

250

Is (1, 7) a solution to 3x - 10y = -67

Yes.

375

2x + 2y = 5

This equation is in what form.

x - 5 = 3(x + 2)

This equation is in what form.

y = mx + b

What form is this?

Standard Form

600

Find the equation for the line (in any form) between these two points.

(3, 7) and (-5, 11)

y - 7 = -¹/₂ ( x - 3 )

Math Trivia

67

What do you call positive whole numbers and their opposites?

... -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 ...

Integers

123

These numbers have no factors other than 1 and themselves.

The sequence of these types of numbers and the pattern of their occurrence within the set of whole numbers has been a mystery to the present day.

Prime Numbers!

250

What operation on a calculator yields the solution for the following equation?

x³ = 123215342

The cube root.

375

Our number system increases by a place value every 10 numbers. Some more ancient number systems did so ever 12 numbers.

What is the phrase that can be used to describe our number system?

Base-ten

600

Double points for knowing this!

Things can get tricky when finding the square roots of negative numbers. 

What is the square root of -1, and what kind of number is it?

i

an imaginary number

This is part of why we say "all real numbers."
