Unit Plan: Equations and Inequalities

3 weeks (15 days)

N-Q Reason quantitatively and use units to
solve problems. MA.3.a. Describe the
effects of approximate error in measurement
and rounding on measurements and on
computed values from measurements.
Identify significant figures in recorded
measures and computed values based on
the context given and the precision of the
tools used to measure.
A-CED Create equations that describe
numbers or relationships. . Create
equations and inequalities in one variable
and use them to solve problems. Include
equations arising from linear functions.
A-REI !nderstand solving equations as a
process of reasoning and explain the
reasoning. . "xplain each step in solving a
simple equation as follo#ing from the
equality of numbers asserted at the previous
step$ starting from the assumption that the
original equation has a solution. Construct a
viable argument to %ustify a solution method.
A-REI &olve equations and inequalities in
one variable. 3. &olve linear equations and
inequalities in one variable$ including
equations #ith coefficients represented by
letters.
MA.3.a. &olve linear equations and
inequalities in one variable involving
