Standards
Cluster: Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations
Standard: Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
Degree of Alignment: 2 Strong (1 user)
Cluster: Work with radicals and integer exponents
Standard: Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x^2 = p and x^3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that √2 is irrational.

Cluster: Work with radicals and integer exponents
Standard: Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3 × 10^8 and the population of the world as 7 × 10^9, and determine that the world population is more than 20 times larger.

Cluster: Work with radicals and integer exponents
Standard: Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical expressions. For example, 3^2 × 3^(–5) = 3^(–3) = 1/(3^3) = 1/27.

Cluster: Work with radicals and integer exponents
Standard: Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been generated by technology.

Cluster: Mathematical practices
Standard: Look for and make use of structure. Mathematically proficient students look closely to discern a pattern or structure. Young students, for example, might notice that three and seven more is the same amount as seven and three more, or they may sort a collection of shapes according to how many sides the shapes have. Later, students will see 7 × 8 equals the well remembered 7 × 5 + 7 × 3, in preparation for learning about the distributive property. In the expression x^2 + 9x + 14, older students can see the 14 as 2 × 7 and the 9 as 2 + 7. They recognize the significance of an existing line in a geometric figure and can use the strategy of drawing an auxiliary line for solving problems. They also can step back for an overview and shift perspective. They can see complicated things, such as some algebraic expressions, as single objects or as being composed of several objects. For example, they can see 5 – 3(x – y)^2 as 5 minus a positive number times a square and use that to realize that its value cannot be more than 5 for any real numbers x and y.

Cluster: Mathematical practices
Standard: Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Mathematically proficient students notice if calculations are repeated, and look both for general methods and for shortcuts. Upper elementary students might notice when dividing 25 by 11 that they are repeating the same calculations over and over again, and conclude they have a repeating decimal. By paying attention to the calculation of slope as they repeatedly check whether points are on the line through (1, 2) with slope 3, middle school students might abstract the equation (y – 2)/(x –1) = 3. Noticing the regularity in the way terms cancel when expanding (x – 1)(x + 1), (x – 1)(x^2 + x + 1), and (x – 1)(x^3 + x^2 + x + 1) might lead them to the general formula for the sum of a geometric series. As they work to solve a problem, mathematically proficient students maintain oversight of the process, while attending to the details. They continually evaluate the reasonableness of their intermediate results.

For example, compare a distance-time graph to a distance-time equation to determine which of two moving objects has greater speed.

Cluster: Understand the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations

Cluster: Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations
Standard: Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by successively 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).

اعجبني في هذا المصدر طريقة العرض من حيث التدرج ومراعات الفروق الفردية
ايضا هناك فرصة للعمل الجماعي في المجموعات
طريقة العرض مشوقة للطلاب خاصة في بداية مرحلة التعلم لحل المعادلات من خلال استخدام الة المدخلات والمخرجات (input -output machine)
يمكن استخدام الانشطة داخل غرفة الصف لأنه يحقق احد المعايير الخاصة بالنهج وكأنشطة إثرائية تدعم الكتاب المدرسي
This is a lesson/assessment unit. There are many resources for the teacher to aid in the lesson. There are student handouts, assessments, assessment revisited, ppt, explorations for students, suggested questions and prompts for common issues, analysis of sample student responses. This lesson looks at a solution and has student write different possible equations that would have that solution.It slightly addresses CCSS 8.EE.8 analyzing and solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
