Systems of Equations and Linear Programming

Note date changes due to storm/power outage!

Chapter 3 explores applications of systems of equations and systems of inequalities. You will do a lot of graphing. Get some graph paper and a ruler!

Day 1:  3.1  Solving Systems by Graphing
                  HW (due after Transformation Quiz) p.161-163/13-23 odd, 47-52, 79, 80
Day 2:  3.2  Solving Systems by Substitution and Elimination
                  HW p.161-162/137-42, 53 and p.169-171/21-35 odd,36-39,43-45,63,64

Day 3:  3.3  Linear Inequalities (and going over TI drawings!)
                  HW p.176-178/26-31, 41-51, 54, 73, 74
Day 4:  3.4  Systems of Linear Inequalities
                  HW p.183-186/9-45 by 3's, 46-48, 51, 68-70
Day 5:         Systems of Linear Word Problems
                  HW Finish Handout of problems
Day 6:  3.5  Linear Programming (Day 1)
                  HW Finish Handout of problems

***** 2 days without power *****
Day 7:  3.5  Linear Programming (Day 2)     (Answer Key)
                  HW Finish Handout of harder problems
Day 8:  3.5  Review
                  HW Finish Review Handout

Day X:  A-Block only - an activity
                  HW review for test
11/08  Ch 3 Test

We will spend time (before or after the test depending on the block) looking at 3D Systems of equations before moving on to Matrices, the topic of Chapter 4.
