Solving equations and triangles

This week in math we will begin our new unit on solving linear equations.  We will begin by reviewing the distributive property and properties of numbers.  We will then build up to simplifying expressions and solving equations.  We will start with basic equations and build up to solving equations with variables on both sides and equations that have no answer, one answer, or infinite answers.  The class continues to work on the fractal project, where we are working through problems with probability and combinations that will lead us into fractals.
