-Good Things?
-Copy down 5.2 Day #1 Notes "Solving Systems of Linear Equations by Substitution"
-Login to Canvas and read closely though section 5.2 paying close attention to examples
-Work on 5.2 Day #1 homework: pg. 245 #3-17 ODDS, 32
-->Check your answers either on Big Ideas or paper answer key
-->We will go over questions tomorrow
*HW: Finish 5.2 Day #1 homework

Thursday 11/21:
*I can solve a system of linear equations by elimination
-Good Things?
-Go onto Canvas then click on modules. Click on the chapter 5 link and read through section 5.3 paying close attention to the examples and explanations. Once you get to the homework page, complete the exercises below. We WILL go over everything very slowly tomorrow, so please do not panic.
-Once you finish the problems below, you may use any extra time in the hour as a study hall to work on something else quietly. Over half of the class needs to make-up at least one test, so this is a great time to work on the retake assignments.

Friday 11/22:
-Good Things?
-I PROMISE you we will spend ALL of Monday going over questions from the previous days' homework. I PROMISE you I will do everything I can to make the test Tuesday very fair for you knowing I was out three days this week. Please. Don't. Panic. :)
-Notes 5.4 "The Numbers of Solutions of Linear Systems"
-->Here is the most basic version of the notes I can give you:
-If you rearrange both equations in your linear system (solve for y so it would look like y=....) and they have the same coefficient in front of "x" (same slope) but different y-intercepts (y=mx + b)....b-values are different, then the system will have NO SOLUTIONS because the lines are parallel and therefore will never cross (remember a solution to a system is anywhere two lines touch on the graph)
-If you rearrange both equations in your linear system (solve for y so it would look like y=...) and they have different coefficients in front of "x" (different slopes) then the system will have ONE SOLUTION (one point where the two lines cross).
-If you rearrange both equations in your linear system (solve for y so it would look like y=...) and they are the same equations then the system will have INFINITELY MANY SOLUTIONS because they equations for the same line therefore their points will always touch.
-->Try your best on the homework. Remember you can reach the Algebra book through either my class website, Canvas (under Modules), or through Big Ideas itself. You can open the book to section 5.4 and read carefully through the notes and example problems before getting to the homework page. I strongly encourage you to plug in all of your homework into the BIg Ideas 5.4 assignment to check your answers as you go. Again, I will go over everything on Monday.
