Instructions
Play through this interactive game to learn about Understand Algebraic Results. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.
Main Concepts
Show which possibility is the case (one solution, infinite solutions, or no solutions) by transforming the given equation into simpler forms until an equivalent equation of the form x=a, a=a, or a=b results (where a and b are different numbers).
For Linear Equations without calculating you can determine if it has no solutions if no values will make the equation true, and variables cancel each other out on both sides of the equation as variable terms are the same and both sides are not equal.
For Linear Equations without calculating you can determine if it has infinite solutions if any value will make the equation true and variable terms are the same and both sides are equal.
For Linear Equations without calculating you can determine if it has one solution if only one value will make the equation true, the variable terms are different, the end result has a variable and a solution.
Discussion Questions
Before the Game
What are the parts of an algebraic equation? What does the variable represent in an equation? What do parentheses tell us to do in an equation?
After the Game
Explain the difference between one solution, infinite solutions, and zero solutions algebraic equations. What does the final step of an equation that has zero solutions look like?
