Linear expressions and equations: Year 10 – planning tool
This planning resource for Year 10 is for the topic of Linear expressions and equations. Students have developed confidence from their prior learning to algebraically solve linear equations of the form ax + b = c and can represent the solution graphically. They extend this to solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations with two variables and representing their solutions graphically. Students also graph and obtain the point of intersection of the graphs of two linear functions of the form ax + by = c.
