Outcomes

A1.N.Q.A.1

Use units as a way to understand real-world problems.*

A1.N.Q.A.1.A

Choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays.*

A1.A.CED.A.2

Create equations in two variables to represent relationships between quantities and use them to solve problems in a real-world context. Graph equations with two variables on coordinate axes with labels and scales, and use the graphs to make predictions.*

A1.A.CED.A.3

Create individual and systems of equations and/or inequalities to represent constraints in a contextual situation, and interpret solutions as viable or non-viable.*
