Solving equations using graphs
Lesson presentations and activities
This is a full lesson (PowerPoint, individual LOs for students to stick in their books, main activity, worksheets, extension) on solving simultaneous equations graphically. A lesson plan is attached to give you an idea on how I used it but feel free to use it as you wish.
Requires knowledge of plotting straight line graphs and solving simultaneous equations.
The main activity is a card match that I have adapted from resources found on Mr Barton Maths at
http://mrbartonmaths.com/topics/solving-equations/solving-simultaneous-equations/worksheets.html
Feedback would be much appreciated.
Enjoy!Reviews

This lesson will show students how plotting two linear equations in x and y allows them to solve simultaneous equations. The powerpoint has a full explanation as the starter and there is a sheet of questions for students to practice. Before doing this task they should have covered algebraic versions of simultaneous equations, as well as linear graph plotting. If you liked this resource then please check out my other stuff on TES!

Thank you.
This is a powerpoint and worksheet designed to introduce quadratics functions and using the graphs to solve equations. Both when y=0 and y doesn't =0. Created for the new currciulum to use with my able year 10 group. I have chosen to introduce roots via solving by factorising as my group is confident at this inorder for them to make the link. Includes diagnostic questions for AFL, fully differentaited worksheet with challenge on roots, and answers on on the powerpoint.
Please leave me a review if you download this resource!

This is a topic that is quite hard to explain but hopefully this 2 lesson sequence will help. Pupils should already know how to plot linear and quadratic graphs and this builds up to using the graph of one equation to solve a different one. Everything needed is here but you will need to write on the powerpoint in parts. If you like this resource then please check out my other stuff on here!

Just what I needed

Brilliant! Just what I wanted and clearly explained too.
Practice questions, homeworks and assessments
GCSE Solving simultaneous equations using a graphical method.
This worksheet only has straight line graphs. No curves.
I haven’t put numbers on the axes (way too fiddly in word when I’m on a time limit) but they are intended to go up in ones. As always, if you use it - please review it. Eek! Q6 has a slight mistake. It should be -x+y

Great questions and layout of graphs. Thanks for sharing. Much appreciated.
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!

Two worksheets on using graphs of parabolas to solve equations.
A topic that I've struggled to find decent worksheets on.Reviews

Thanks for this! Looks good for pupils who are targeting grade 6. Like the number of alternative questions you provide.
