Graphing Systems of Equations


Pass out Packet 28: Graphing Systems. Have students look through the packet to see what we are doing this week.

Discuss the different types of lines that can be made (parallel, the same, and intersecting) on the top of page 1. Go through and graph the lines and find out if they are intersecting and where the point of intersection would be.

Have students practice on their own on pages 2 and 3. If they are still in need of help, go through an additional problem with them.

With a slope of 2, in which direction would you graph?

4/16 Partner Pair Share


Students will be placed in pairs based on picking their desk numbers.

Each person in the pair will be given a different worksheet (Pair Share Wkst)with 4 sets of lines to graph. They need to find the point of intersection for each set. Their partner should get the same point of intersection.
