Solving Systems

In Grade 10 we continued with some more challenging substitution problems.  We then had time to practice our skills using a “speed dating” activity.

We worked with partners across the table, solved the problem, then one set of partners shifted so they could try the problem with the support of the “expert” who stayed put.  The next round, the former “expert” shifted to a new question, and new partner (who had just become an expert).
We are solving by substitution, elimination and graphing now.  We are also working on making good choices to solve problems efficiently.
