Systems of Linear Equations and Problem Solving
Mixture Problems and Systems of Equations
Initial Post Instructions
If you have a problem that has multiple variables, you can solve it using a system of equations. Think of a real-world example where you would need to solve using a system of equations. Write two or three sentences describing your example. Include the equations in your description, but do not solve the system. That will be left to your classmates.
Follow-Up Post Instructions
Respond to at least two peers in a substantive, content-specific way. Further the dialogue by providing more information and clarification.
