Solving Simultaneous Equations Graphically

(22)
This is a worksheet with some questions on solving simultaneous equation in three sections. Section 1 is two linear equations; section 2 is a quadratic and y=n; section 3 is a quadratic and y=mx+c. The first two sections fit onto two sides of A4 and part 3 is the extension ultimately. There is a RAG table for students to mark their progress and this can be amended depending on how far you want to go. Students will need to plot graphs and estimate solutions as not all are integers. Typos corrected!

Clive is tackling a simultaneous equations homework but as per usual is making errors. There are three sets of linear simultaneous equations to correct and a linear/quadratic to look at. I have tried to cover regular errors for students to spot, correct and discuss.

Four spiders to complete: two involving two linear equations and two involving a linear and a quadratic. This is designed to create discussion and gives students options on how to solve, either by elimination or substitution. If you are feeling adventurous you could even draw the graphs...

Non-Examples - Solving Equations - Reasoning Tasks

(5)
There are 8 sets of five questions that have been answered either correctly or incorrectly, the students have to decide which. These are designed to create discussion in classrooms and include one-step, two-step, brackets, variables on both sides, equations involving fractions, simultaneous equations (linear only) and quadratic equations (both factorised and non-factorised). Hopefully there should be something for all levels up to GCSE.

Expanding, Factorising and Solving Quadratics

(73)
This is designed to take the students from simple expanding a bracket to simple factorising to multiplying out two brackets to factorising quadratics to simplifying algebraic fractions to solving quadratics by completing the square to solving quadratics using the quadratic formula and simultaneous equations involving quadratics. There are questions for each as well as examples and explanations. Between each section there is a 'Where are you now?' section to show progress.

Solving Linear Simultaneous Equations Graphically

(10)
I was looking for something that had its own grids as I didn’t want the mis-drawing of axes to take over a lesson but there wasn’t a lot (maybe I wasn’t looking in the right place), so I wrote this. There are three sections: y=mx+c, rearranging to y=mx+c, mixed questions. There is also a RAG sheet for students to fill in as they go to demonstrate progress.

Save Our Satellite - Simultaneous Equations: Trying to find a real life example of where we might solve simultaneous equations graphically I came up with this. Students have to plot to linear graphs and find the point of impact. You could bring in Pythagoras and find out if the two bodies were travelling at the same speed would they actually collide, but I wanted to keep the worksheet to one side of A4.

QR Code Defuse The Bomb - Algebra

Three different activities, each with five questions and a choice of three answers. They must scan the QR code associated to the correct answer to get the next 'colour' in the code. Activity 1 is wordy but relatively easy, Activity 2 a little tougher and Activity 3 that hardest (including factorising quadratics).

QR Code Defuse The Bomb - Core 1

(7)
Five topics from C1 - a question on each. The students have 3 options to choose from, then scan the appropriate QR code (which takes them to a song or artist with a number in the title). Once they have all five correct answers they can "defuse the bomb" with the code. All QR codes scan to a song or artist with a number in them so they can't cheat. I have done some worked solutions too.

What Was The Question? Christmas Theme

(11)
The students are given the answer and asked to fill in the gaps in the question. Topics used involve probability, equations, simultaneous equations, fractions, percentages, ratio, speed, distance, time and many others. Some of the questions allow for multiple answers so discussion could be had. Designed to be used as starters/plenaries to get the grey matter moving. The Christmas theme runs through every question and is a tad tenuous at times but there you go.

Exploding Simultaneous Equations

(8)
This is a set of 6 sheets of increasingly difficult simultaneous equations designed to make students think and discuss how to work through their solutions by giving them different parts of the process. They include simultaneous equations that involve a linear and a non-linear equation. This is also designed to stretch at GCSE or could be used at the start of A level.

GCSE Maths Revison "Advent" Calendar - Higher - Non-Calculator Questions

(5)
I’ve called this an “Advent” calendar as I couldn’t think of a better name, but I have little intention of using it in the run up to Christmas only. There are 24 questions which you can choose to display; students have a go and can then check their solutions with the model answer slide. Topics include bearings, averages, expanding and simplifying brackets, angle problems, transformations, proportion, simultaneous equations, similar shapes, indices, surds, circle theorems, algebraic fractions amongst other topics. Questions are from Edexcel past papers.

Solve the simultaneous equations to reveal the punchline to a lame joke in both cases. The equations on codebreaker 1 are all designed to be solved by elimination; the equations on codebreaker 2 are to be done by substitution.

Angle Properties

(2)
This worksheet is an attempt to get students comfortable with algebra, angles and proof. This starts with angles around a point and on a line and asks students to write down any relationships between angles. We then move on to polygons (including triangles) and look for relationships. The next stage is parallel lines and their angle properties, asking studetns to write angles in terms of another angle. Finally we have circle theorems and some simultaneous equations moving on to a couple of proofs. This should generate discussion and is designed to do so, especially the parts involving algebra plus the need to explain the angle property used in each case.

This takes students through all the skills required to solve simultaneous equations graphically (only linear graphs), by elimination and by substitution including one linear and one non-linear up to GCSE level. Work from the bottom building the skills up to the most complex style of question.

Fenton the dog likes chasing deer and geese through Richmond Park (the original video from YouTube is included in the Notebook file). The Rangers need to calculate the number of distressed animals there are as a result of the chases using the total number of feet chased and the total number of animals.

This worksheet cover negative quadratic graphs. The curves are drawn and students must find the equations using the roots. They can then solve simultaneous equations using their graphs, both y = a number and y= mx+c and we finish off with some differentiation and calculating of gradients and normals. There are 4 parts to this so you can stop or start at the appropriate level for your class.

Calculate how much each person must pay based on their orders at McDonald's. The inspiration came from mrslack_maths and his resource linked here: https://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/McDonalds-Simultaneous-Equations-6406906/ which is very nice so go and have a look at that as well!
