You must be able to: - translate sentences into equations - solve for the unknown variable - know the characteristics of intersecting, parallel and distinct, and coincident lines - graph linear equations - determine solution of graphed lines - solve linear systems by graphing (for help with this, see @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNkPKv0OTGI) - solve linear systems by substitution (for help with this, see @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwHR_B9zK7k) - solve linear systems by elimination (for help with this, see @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej25myhYcSg) - determine if lines are intersecting, parallel and distinct, or coincident by comparing slope and y-intercept - create equivalent equations - complete word problems by going through the steps of writing let statements, writing two equations, solving for one variable, solving for the other variable, checking your answer, and writing a therefore statement
