LEA R N A N D CO N N ECT At the state fair, Nick wants to buy popcorn for the best value. Vendor A sells a 48-ounce bucket of popcorn for $9.60. Vendor B sells an 80-ounce bucket for $18.40. He wants to see which gives the better value. Nick can use the unit rate, or how much each costs per one unit, to compare the two vendors. To find the unit rate, divide the total by the number of units.

Ask students to work independently to find the values that go in the blank spaces in the table. Review as a class and ask students what methods they used to solve. Explain that this table uses a ratio to evaluate costs, and today’s lesson will review using unit rates and proportions to find and compare rates and find missing values. Guiding Questions: 1. How can we use ratios to find the missing values? [Find the unit rate and use a proportion to solve for a missing piece.] 2. Why is finding a unit rate important when solving? [It allows us to easily calculate any missing value since it is per 1 unit.]

ACTIVITY Carnival Stands Better Buys: This activity allows students to apply their understanding of proportions and unit rates in a real-world context. Divide the class into groups of two or three and assign each group a type of carnival stand, such as a popcorn booth, lemonade stand, or carnival game. Ensure that at least two groups are assigned the same type of stand to create opportunities for comparison later. Each group will design a poster advertising three different price levels for their product (for example, a carnival game might cost a certain amount for three tries, five tries, and ten tries). Remind students that their prices must remain proportional. After all posters are complete, display the similar stands side by side around the room. Have students walk around to compare the stands, calculate unit rates, and decide which offers the better buy. Students should record their findings and conclusions, then share and discuss as a class to reinforce how proportional reasoning helps identify the best deal.
COMMON ERRORS Students may set up the proportions incorrectly. Students may make calculation errors when simplifying.

Skill 4: Estimating Quotients with Compatible Numbers Fill in the blanks. Use compatible numbers to estimate the quotients.
43 ÷ 4 = ? 4 × ? = 43
1.
4 × 10 = 40 4 × 11 = 44 43 closer to 44, so 43 ÷ 4 will be a little less than 11. 43 ÷ 4 = about 11
2.
3.
64 ÷ 7 = ?
170 ÷ 3 = ?
481 ÷ 5 = ?
7 × ? = 64
64 is closer to 63 , so 64 ÷ 7
7 × 9 = 63 7 × 10 = 70
will be a little greater than 9 , 64 ÷ 7 = about 9
3 × ? = 170 3 × 50 = 150
170 is closer to 180 , so 170 ÷ 3
3 × 60 = 180
170 ÷ 3 = about 60
5 × ? = 481 5 × 90 = 450
481 is closer to 500, so 481 ÷ 5 will be a little less than 100.
5 × 100 = 500
481 ÷ 5 = about 100
will be a little less than 60 .
I can use compatible numbers to estimate quotients.

A perfect square is a number whose square root is an integer.
A square is what you get when you multiply a number by itself. The square root is the inverse, or opposite, of a square. It tells you what number was multiplied to make the square. To find the square root, ask: “What number times itself equals this number?” 9 = 3 because 3 × 3 = 9
25 = 5 because 5 × 5 = 25
When taking the square root of a number, we usually write the answer as a positive number, but it can be negative, too!
81 = 9 because 9 × 9 = 81
9 can equal 3 or -3 because 3 × 3 = 9 and -3 × -3 = 9
Therefore, if we want the answer to be negative, we put the negative symbol in front of the square root.
9=3
- 9 = -3

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Read the first paragraph of the Learn and Connect section to introduce the vocabulary terms square, inverse, and square root. Read the examples and ask students if they can come up with more examples [ 4 = 2; 16 = 4 36 = 6]. Explain to students that these numbers are called perfect squares because they have a square root that is an integer. Not all square roots will be nice round numbers. In fact, most are not. Next, ask students if 9 has another answer besides 3. Ask: “What other number can be multiplied by itself to equal 9?” [-3] Read the yellow box in the Learn and Connect section to explain why this is and to teach how we usually give our answers when finding square roots. Caution students that when we put a negative with a square root, it must go outside the square root symbol. Have them think about why that might be. [You can’t do -9 because there is no number that can be multiplied by itself to equal -9.]

For problem 27, encourage students to think about where the square root of 45 falls on a number line and what numbers it is close to.
Since 45 is close to 49 (a perfect square), he can estimate that 45 is close to 7 (the square root of 49) but a little less, since 45 is a little less than 49. Estimate: 6.7

Have students work with a partner on the problems in the Apply section and then go over them as a class to ensure understanding. Next, have students work independently on problems 1-24 in the Exercise section, reminding them to pay attention to when there are negative signs in front of roots. Review the problems together. For problem 21, tell students that we can break down larger numbers to help us solve: 1,600 = (16 x 100) = 4 × 10 = 40. Work together to solve problems 25 and 26, reminding students that to find the area of a square, we multiply its side length by itself.
ACTIVITY Perfect Square Reference Chart: The purpose of this activity is to have students investigate the perfect squares up to 144 and lay them out in a chart to use as a reference during the school year. Have students create a chart of the perfect squares up to 144. Have them write 1 × 1 = 1, 2 × 2 = 4, 3 × 3 = 9, and so on, each on a different line.

CH AL L ENGE 22. There are two boxes in the shape of cubes. The first has a volume of 512 cubic centimeters, and the second has double the volume of the first. A. What is the side length of the first box? 8 centimeters B. What is the side length of the second box? Hint: Use a perfect cube you know to estimate the length. 10.1 cm C. Explain why the side length of the second cube is not double the side length of the first cube, even though its volume is double.
For problem 24, first have students find the volume of the second box. After students answer question a, have them think about question b. Remind them of the hint given - to use a perfect cube close to the volume of the box. When thinking about question c, students can be reminded about growth rates. What happens when you multiply by three versus multiplying a number three times? Which grows faster?
Volume increases a lot faster than the length. Increasing the length by one centimeter does not increase the volume by one square centimeter because the side length is cubed to find the volume. When the volume was doubled, the length only increased by about 25%.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the fraction 31 on the board and ask students how we can change this fraction into a decimal. [by dividing 1 by 3]. Write 1 ÷ 3 on the board set up as a long division problem and have students begin dividing. Ask students: What should we do to help us divide this smaller number (1) by this larger number (3)? [add a decimal after the 1 and a zero.]. Prompt students through the steps of long division if needed. Ask students: How do we know when we are done dividing? [When we have divided every digit in the dividend AND we have a remainder of zero] Help students notice that with this problem, we will never get a remainder of zero, and we will keep on adding 3s to the quotient forever. Show them how to write the answer with bar notation as 0.3. Next, tell students that since everything in math has an inverse, we must be able to change a repeating decimal back to a fraction. Tell them that to do this, we are going to use algebra. Using the number 0.6, set up the equation and go through the steps as they are laid out in the Learn and Connect section. In step 2, tell students that we can multiply both sides by any number, but we chose 10 because the repeating decimal is in the tenths place. In step 3, remind students that because we know what x is equal to, we can use that number when subtracting x. Finally, remind students to simplify their final answer.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the Learn and Connect section to introduce the new vocabulary for this chapter When discussing the terms, use the chart to give examples of each. Discuss how rational numbers include any positive or negative numbers that can be written in fraction form, even if they are often encountered as just a whole number or in decimal form. For example, repeating decimals can all be written in fraction form, so they fall into this category, and the number 5 can be written as 51 , so it also falls into this category. Numbers with no fractional parts are called integers. The term whole numbers is limited to positive integers and zero, sometimes also called “the counting numbers.” Irrational numbers will have decimals that go on forever and have no predictable pattern. Discuss rational numbers that students may have encountered before, such as pi, and new ones that they will be working with, such as square roots and cube roots of non-perfect squares and cubes. Inform students that today, we will focus on classifying, or sorting, numbers into the correct categories.

Next, students should work independently on questions 1-24 in the Exercise section. Before they begin, make sure students understand that for questions 11-24, they may need to draw more than one line from each number to the answer choices. Review the answers as a class, and then work together on questions 25 and 26.
ACTIVITY Number Sort: The purpose of this activity is to get students up and moving while simultaneously sorting numbers into their correct categories. Give students sticky notes with a number on them (be sure to include numbers from each category, with repeats if the numbers fall into more than one category). Post the names of the different categories on each classroom wall. Students may work together to place their number in the correct category. The catch is, if they see that their number was already placed in that category, they have to find another category that it also falls into to put their sticky note in. Guide the discussion so that students can see that some numbers fall into one category, while others fall into two or three!
COMMON ERRORS Students may categorize repeating decimals as irrational numbers because they go on forever. Students may not realize that numbers can fall into more than one category.

Perfect square - a number whose square root is an integer
Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the Learn and Connect scenario to introduce the idea of approximating numbers. Tell students that because irrational numbers have an infinite amount of decimal places, we need to use approximations to represent their values in the real world or on a number line. Ask students when we might use irrational numbers in the real world. [Area of a circle, circumference of a circle] Explain that in this example, George knows that his picture frame is a square, and he knows the area because the label told him the area, but he wants to be sure the frame will fit in the spot on his wall, so he needs to find its length. Because it is a square, he can take its square root to find the length. However, the result is an irrational number. Go through the steps of approximating the square root of a non-perfect square with students. Encourage them to use a chart with the perfect squares and their square roots in order to go about this process.

Finally, have students work on problems 16 - 17 in pairs. Check to ensure understanding.
ACTIVITY Human Number Line: The purpose of this activity is to have students approximate square roots of non-perfect squares in an interactive way. Call up students one by one to be a human on a number line. Call out a number, such as “Square root of 15.” Ask for two volunteers to be the humans on the number line that stand as the boundary for 15. Help students figure out that one should be 9 and the other 16 because 15 is between the these two perfect squares. Then, have a third student come up and stand somewhere between the other two, approximating 15. They should stand closer to 16 than 9. Finally, have the class determine together the exact value of 9, 16, and finally, the approximate value of 15. Repeat with different numbers and different students.
COMMON ERRORS Students may think that all square roots can be approximated to a number ending in .5 instead of trying to be more accurate to show which whole numbers they are closer to.

For problem 21, students need to remember that a circle with a diameter of 2 has a circumference that is actually more than 3 times 2. If needed, remind students that C = 2πr and that diameter is 2r. Once students find the circumference, they can clearly see that Daniel ran more, and they can subtract to find the approximate difference.
Daniel’s distance is 2π, or about 6.28 miles. Tom only ran 3.3 miles. Therefore, Daniel ran almost 3 more miles than Tom.

PRE-LESSON WARM-UP
Jimmy and five of his friends go to a restaurant to celebrate his birthday. At the end, they receive a bill for $100.45. At first, the friends decide to split the bill so that each person will pay the same amount. Then, one friend says that it would be nice to pay for the birthday boy’s meal. Besides the fact that it is a nice thing to do, why else would splitting the bill the second way be a good idea?
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
[When splitting the first way, 100.45 is divided by 6, and the answer is a repeating decimal, 16.7416. When splitting among the five friends, 100.45 is divided by 5, and the answer is 20.09, a number that has just two decimal places, which makes sense for money.] Guiding Questions: 1. When splitting the bill the first way, do you get a rational number or an irrational number? How do you know? [A rational number. The result is a repeating decimal, which can be written as a fraction.] 2. What do we do in real life when a bill or anything to do with money has more than two decimal places? [We round to the nearest hundredth.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the table in the Learn and Connect section to review the concepts from this chapter. First, discuss how taking the square root is the inverse of squaring and how we can use perfect squares we know to find square roots. Ask students what kind of number we simplify to when taking the square root of a perfect square [integer/whole number] and what kind of number we simplify to when taking the square root of a non-perfect square [irrational number]. Next, repeat this process with the box on cube roots. Then, move on to converting fractions to decimals using long division. Review the algebraic process for converting repeating decimals to fractions, and ask students if they recall any of the patterns they found when doing this process [Fractions with a denominator of 9 will always be a repeating decimal with the numerator of the fraction repeating.]. Finally, categorize all these numbers using the Types of Numbers chart. Be sure to review the differences between whole numbers and integers and rational numbers and irrational numbers.

CH AL L ENGE 32. Bobby wants to cover a square countertop with contact paper. He knows the countertop has an area of 900 square centimeters. 30 cm
A. What is the length of one side of the countertop?
B. The contact paper comes in a roll that is 10 centimeters wide. Explain how Bobby will need to cut the contact paper to fit the countertop so that the whole thing is covered.
For the Challenge problem, help students use the square root of 9 to find the square root of 900. Then, have them sketch out what it might look like to cover the counter top with contact paper that doesn’t fit the full width of the surface.
Bobby will need to cut three pieces that are each 30 cm long. By laying them side by side, the three 10 cm-wide pieces will create a width of 30 cm.

Next, model one problem from each section on the Exercise page, and then have students work independently on the rest of the problems. Review all the problems when complete.
ACTIVITY Clothesline Math: The purpose of this activity is to order numbers on a number line in an interactive way. Prepare several notecards with different types of numbers (integers, decimals, fractions, repeating decimals, square roots, cube roots, irrational numbers) between -10 and 10. Fasten a string from one side the room to the other, and put a notecard with the number 0 in the middle, -10 on the left end, and 10 on the right end. Have students work in groups to place their numbers in the correct place on the number line, encouraging discussion. Be sure to remind them about spacing and using approximations for irrational numbers. If any numbers are equivalent, provide clips so that they can be placed in the same spot.
COMMON ERRORS Students may forget the steps for changing a repeating decimal to a fraction. Students may classify a repeating decimal as an irrational number.

After reviewing answers, tell students that these terms are called powers, and they serve as shorthand for repeated multiplication. Identify the base and the exponent in each example. Remind students that the base is the number being multiplied, and the exponent tells you how many times to multiply it. After reviewing, invite students to explore exponent patterns and share what they notice. Explain that today’s lesson will build on this understanding of exponents by introducing new rules for solving exponents. Guiding Questions: 1. When there is no exponent on a number, what exponent is hiding? [The exponent 1] 2. How many times greater than 53 is 54? [five times greater]

Lesson 1
Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by writing 32 × 34 on the board. Ask students to expand this expression so that they can see all the factors being multiplied. [3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3] Ask: How many threes are being multiplied in total? Can you rewrite this expression as one power of 3? [6 threes; 36] Next, ask the same question for the expression 43 × 45 [4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4; 8 fours; 48] Ask students what they notice about the exponents in each expression. [If you add the exponents in the original expression, you get the exponent in the new expression.] Introduce the product of powers property. This property tells us how to simplify expressions where terms with the same base are being multiplied. Tell students that when we multiply powers with the same base, we can simplify by adding the exponents together. Write the product of powers property formula on the board as it is written in the Learn and Connect section. Next, introduce an example that includes different bases: 23 × 29 × 32. Have students help you write out the expanded factors and then circle the twos as one group and the threes as another. Ask why the twos and threes cannot be combined into one term [because the bases are different, so they have a different value]. Finally, guide students to simplify the expression as 212 × 32. Emphasize that the product of powers property can only be applied when the bases are the same.

Each student will then write the simplified version of the expression. The fastest correct response earns 3 points, the second fastest earns 2 points, and the final team earns 1 point. After each round, students rotate so the next person in line is ready, and play continues until every student has had a chance to solve. At the end of the relay, the team with the highest score wins. To increase the challenge and keep students engaged, add in a few “bonus rounds” with trickier problems that involve multiple bases or more complex expressions.
Have students revisit problems 14 and 15 in the Apply section and rewrite the problems using 3 as the base for problem 14 and 2 as the base for problem 15. If they need some direction, ask them how they can rewrite the number 9 with a base of 3 [32], then tell them to rewrite it in expanded form with the given exponents.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problems 39 and 40, place students in small groups to discuss their strategies. Then, bring the class together to collect possible values for problem 39 on the board. For problem 40, have groups share their reasoning out loud, emphasizing not just the answer but the different ways they approached the problem.
COMMON ERRORS Students may multiply powers instead of adding them. Students may combine terms with different bases.

Have students work with a partner to simplify the expression, and then have a student come up to the board to show how they solved it. If the student begins crossing off pairs of fives, introduce the term cancel out by asking, “What happens when we multiply by 5 and then divide by 5?” Next ask, “What is one set of 55 equal to?” [1] and “What happens when we multiply by 1?” [Nothing] Explain that this is the reason we can “cancel out” pairs of numbers in the top and bottom of a fraction that are the same. Once all the pairs of five cancel out, there should be one five left in the top without a partner. Therefore the answer is 5. Ask students what the answer would be if two fives were left in the top. [25 because 5 × 5 = 25] Finally, ask students how we can rewrite the original 6 expression using exponential notation. [ 555 ]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by writing the example 552 on the board and ask students to expand the expression. [ 5 × 5 ×5 ×5 ×5 5 × 5 ]. Next, ask students to simplify by canceling out pairs of fives. [5 × 5 × 5] Have them rewrite the expression using exponential notation. [53] Ask them what they notice about the exponents in the original expression and the new one. [5 − 2 = 3] Tell them that similar to how we add the exponents when we multiply powers with the same base, we can subtract the exponents when dividing powers with the same base. Write the formula for the quotient of powers property on the board as it is written in the Learn and Connect section. Emphasize that this property is only applied when the 6 bases are the same. If the bases are different, such as 632 , the exponents cannot be combined because the bases don’t have the same value. Tell students that a common error is simplifying this expression to 24. This expression actually cannot be simplified without first finding the values of the numerator and denominator. 5
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Begin by working together as a class on problems 1, 4, 7, and 10 in the Apply section to scaffold understanding and model the process of simplifying expressions with exponents. Next, have students work with a partner to Lighthouse MATH Level H | Teacher's Guide

For problem 30, record different combinations that students found on the board. When discussing problem 31, emphasize that this problem was completed correctly. Because 10 and 2 are coefficients without exponents, they can be divided to simplify.
ACTIVITY Exponent Division Match-Up: The goal of this activity is for students to strengthen their understanding of how to simplify division problems with exponents and recognize that the quotient of powers property only applies when the bases are the same. Prepare one deck of notecards with division 5 4 9 problems written with exponents (such as 772 , 332 , or 226 ) and another deck with their simplified equivalents (733, 32, 23). Also mix in a few problems that use different bases (for example, 252 ), so students are reminded that not all expressions can be simplified with this property. Working in pairs or small groups, students sort through the decks by matching each division problem with its correct answer and placing any “different base” problems in a separate pile. After the groups finish, bring the class together to review the matches, discuss common errors, and emphasize that the quotient of powers property only applies when the bases are the same.
COMMON ERRORS Students may divide exponents instead of subtracting them. Students may divide unlike bases.

Once they have completed the sequence, ask each pair to look for patterns in how the values change as the exponents increase. Then, have them write a short statement explaining exponents in their own words, as if they were teaching the concept to someone who has never seen exponents before. After pairs have written their statements, invite different groups to share their explanations with the class. Conclude by discussing similarities across the various statements. Then, draw a general conclusion with the class about how exponents represent repeated multiplication and how the exponent tells us how many times the base is used as a factor. Guiding Questions: 1. What do exponents represent in mathematics? [They are a way to show repeated multiplication of the base number.] 2. What patterns do you notice as the exponent increases? [Each time the exponent goes up by 1, the value is multiplied by the base again.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by using a student’s work from the pre-lesson warm-up or creating the chart given in the pre-lesson warm-up on the board. With input from the students, draw arrows showing that as you move from the bottom value up the chart, each value is divided by the base. Next, ask students to use this pattern to figure out what (base)0 is equal to. Add (base)0 = 1 to the chart above (base)1. Use another student’s chart that shows values for a different base to confirm this pattern, and demonstrate that the value of any base to the 0 power is 1. Write the formula for the zero power property on the board. Then, ask students to think about what negative exponents might mean given this same pattern. With student input, add (base)-1 and its value above (base)0. Continue adding values with negative exponents above to reinforce the pattern. Discuss how negative exponents give the reciprocal of what the same positive exponent 1 (the reciprocal of 52 = 25). Write the formula would give. For example, 5-2 = 25 for the negative power property on the board. Next, give students an example where the negative exponent is in the bottom, such as x1-4 , and show them how to flip it over and make the exponent positive. Finally, use the example given in the Learn and Connect section to show how we can use all the rules we have learned so far to simplify an expression with many powers.

Set up one station for each property—product of powers, quotient of powers, zero exponents, and negative exponents—with a set of practice problems at each. Students work individually or with a partner to solve the problems, recording their solutions on a sheet as they go. To extend learning, include an optional challenge station with problems that combine multiple properties, requiring students to decide which rules to apply and in what order. After all groups have rotated through the stations, review as a class to highlight strategies, address common mistakes, and emphasize how the properties connect to one another.
COMMON ERRORS Students may think negative exponents mean the value of the power is negative. Students mean think zero powers equal zero.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write out the order of operations on the board and add “and roots” after the word Exponents. Explain that because roots are the inverse of exponents, these two operations fall in the same category. Next, explain that radical signs (the name of the symbol used for roots) and fraction bars act as grouping symbols, much like parentheses. Everything under a square root and everything in the numerator or denominator should be grouped and evaluated before continuing with order of operations. Write the first example from the Learn and Connect section on the board, ( 9 + 8(5) − 6). Have a student draw parentheses under the radical to emphasize that the expression under it is one group. Walk the class through each step, asking students to calculate as you go. Then, walk through the second example of the fraction being subtracted from 8. Have students help you group the numerator and denominator with parentheses and walk through the steps to simplify. Emphasize that the last step is to subtract the simplified fraction from 8. Caution them that they must do this in the correct order to get the correct value.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Begin by working through problems 1 and 2 in the Apply section together as a class by first inserting parentheses around the parts that need to be grouped and then following PEMDAS.

Next, have students work with a partner to solve problems 1–12 in the Exercise section. Bring the class back together to review, and invite volunteers to show their work on the board for problems 9–12. Conclude the lesson by working as a class to solve problems 13 and 14. First, create an expression based on the scenario, and then have students simplify it using the skills learned in this chapter: by grouping first, then following the order of operations.
Ask students to write a clean, stepby-step solution for problems 9-12 in the Exercise section. Have them write a brief explanation after each line, for example, “simplified inside parentheses” or “evaluated exponent.” When finished, have them swap papers with a partner and verify each step.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE Recommend to students that they use a colored pencil to draw in parentheses around each part that should be grouped for Challenge problems 15 and 16. Also recommend that they rewrite the problem each time they complete a step in the simplifying process to be sure they don’t mess up the order of terms.
ACTIVITY Order of Operations Relay: The purpose of this activity is to have students practice using the order of operations in a fun and interactive way. Divide students into teams. Write an expression on the board that involves many steps and following the order of operations to simplify. Students will stand in line and simplify the expression, one student per step. They will go to the back of the line once they’ve completed each step. Important rules to note: a student may choose to complete the next step or correct an error that was made previously. Each time, the student needs to write out the entirety of the expression that remains after they have completed their step so that the next person is able to look at the problem as a whole and make a decision about what to do next. The first team to finish with the correct answer wins.
COMMON ERRORS Students may simplify without first grouping and then following the order of operations.

Guiding Questions: 1. How can we use place value to simplify the expressions? [Place value is based on tens, so each time we increase by 10, we go up a place value.] 2. When can we not use the trick of “add a zero onto the number” when multiplying by ten, and what can we do instead? [When multiplying 10 by a decimal. For example 5.1 × 10 is not 5.10, it’s 51. Each digit shifts over by one place value to the left.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by writing the number 50,000 on the board and asking students how to break it apart into two factors. [5 × 10,000] Next, ask students how to write 10,000 as a power of ten. [104] Point out that this means 50,000 can also be written as 5 × 104. Explain to students that the number 50,000 is now written in scientific notation: a way to write very large or very small numbers using powers of ten. Next, demonstrate the process with a very small number, 0.003. This number may be harder for students to break down into factors. Ask them how to read this number using place value. [three one 1 . thousandths] This means that we can also write this number as 3 × 1,000 1 1 Ask students how we can write 1,000 as a power of 10. [ 103 or 10-3] Tell them that we can write this number in scientific notation as 3 × 10-3. Next, tell them the number being multiplied by the power of ten is called the coefficient and must be between 1 and 10, but cannot be 10. Use the second example in the Learn and Connect section to exemplify this. Explain that 0.0013 can be 1 because the first digit after the zeros is 1, and it is in the written as 1.3 × 1,000 thousandths place. Next, use the information in the Learn and Connect section to show students a shortcut for converting numbers from scientific notation to standard form by moving the decimal. Take this opportunity to show them how to use the shortcut to convert from standard form to scientific notation as well. Additionally, reinforce the idea that powers of ten with positive exponents make large numbers, while powers of ten with negative exponents make small numbers.

Students who struggle may benefit from using the shortcut method of moving the decimal to write numbers in scientific notation. Have students put their pencil on the decimal (or write a decimal on the far right side of the number if there isn’t one) and then draw arcs under each digit to count how many places it would need to be moved in order to create a number between 1 and 10. Tell students that this is the number that should be used for the exponent on the power of ten. The number they create by doing this is the coefficient.

Next, work through problems 1-3 and 16-18 in the Exercise section together as a class to reinforce understanding and model the process of changing between the two forms of writing numbers. Once these have been completed, have students work in small groups to solve problems 4-15, 19-30, and 31-34. Conclude with a whole-class review, addressing any questions students have and clearing up any misconceptions.
ACTIVITY Scientific Notation Trivia: Students will strengthen their ability to write numbers in correct scientific notation and convert between scientific notation and standard form. Give each student a whiteboard and marker. In the first round, write a number in standard form on the board and have students convert it into scientific notation on their whiteboards. When you say “Show,” all students raise their whiteboards to show their answers. Call on a student who got the answer right to explain how they did it. Check in with students who got the answer wrong to see where they may have gotten confused. Points are awarded for correct answers and deducted for incorrect ones, with several problems given in this round. In the second round, present a number in scientific notation and have students convert it into standard form. The same scoring rules apply. In the final round, write a number in incorrect scientific notation and have students correct it on their boards. After all rounds are complete, points are tallied to determine the student with the highest score.
COMMON ERRORS Students may use coefficients greater than 10. Students may use the incorrect power of 10.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the numbers 2 × 10-2, 2,500, 2×103, and 25,000 on the board. Ask students to predict which number they believe is the greatest and which is the least, and have them explain their reasoning. Then introduce the lesson by explaining that today’s focus is on comparing and ordering numbers in scientific notation. Explain that to make it easier to compare the numbers, we must first rewrite them in the same form. Begin by asking students which form they would like to put all the numbers into. Convert all of the numbers into that form, then have them place the numbers in order before converting them back to their original forms. Next, guide students to convert all of the numbers into the other form and order them again, then put them back into their original form. Confirm that the order came out the same for both methods. Emphasize that when ordering numbers in scientific notation, the exponent should be considered first, and if that is the same, then the coefficients are compared. When ordering numbers in standard form, place value is used. Conclude by encouraging students to practice both methods so they can strengthen their understanding and flexibility when comparing numbers in scientific notation.

For Challenge problem 28, students will need to write a statement explaining why the error occurred using specific reasoning. For problem 29, students will need to compare numbers where one is not in proper scientific notation. Remind students that while it may not be proper, it does still have a value that we can find. We can compare the numbers by putting both in proper scientific notation or by changing both to standard form. When students finish working, discuss their answers together as a class.
ACTIVITY Human Number Line Race: The purpose of this activity is for students to strengthen their skills of ordering and comparing numbers in both scientific notation and standard form through group collaboration. Prepare two identical set of notecards, each with a number written either in scientific notation or standard form. Divide the class into two teams. Distribute the cards so that each student receives one. Students line up in order from least to greatest, racing to see which team finishes first and most accurately. When both teams are done lining up, they turn to face each other and display their cards. Both teams’ cards should be in the same order. If they aren’t, students with cards in different orders have to justify their placement and reposition themselves correctly. The team that finishes first wins, if they are completely accurate as well. Otherwise, the team with the least mistakes wins.
COMMON ERRORS Students may convert to standard form incorrectly. Students may convert to scientific notation incorrectly. Students may mistake larger negative exponents as larger values.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Remind students that numbers in scientific notation have two parts: a coefficient and a power of ten. Let them know that splitting numbers into these two parts makes multiplication and division easier. Write the example from the Learn and Connect section on the board: (4 × 102) × (3 × 105). Ask students to identify the coefficients [4 and 3] and circle them in one color. Then, ask for the powers of ten [102 and 105] and circle them in another color. Show students how to separate and sort the parts and multiply each by their corresponding part. Have them simplify 4 × 3 and 102 × 105 to get 12 and 107, then put that back together to get the result, 12 × 107. Point out that this number is not in proper scientific notation. Emphasize that the final answer must always be rewritten in correct scientific notation, with a coefficient that is between 1 and 10. Show students how to adjust by changing 12 to 1.2 and 107 to 108. Repeat the process with the division example, (2.4 × 106) ÷ (4 × 103), walking through separating and sorting coefficients and powers, simplifying, and adjusting as needed.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Work through problems 1–2 in the Apply section as a class to review how to adjust a number so that it is in proper scientific notation. Tell students that when we make the coefficient smaller by one place value, we must adjust the exponent by increasing it by one to compensate for the shift.

ACTIVITY Scientific Notation Relay: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice the steps for solving multiplication and division problems with scientific notation through a collaborative relay game. Divide the class into groups of four and provide each group with a whiteboard. Within each group, students select one of four roles: Separator, Coefficient Solver, Exponent Solver, and Checker. Each student also chooses a different dry-erase color. Write a multiplication or division problem in scientific notation on the board. The whiteboard will be passed from one person to the next, beginning with the Separator, who rewrites the problem by separating the coefficients and exponents. Next, the Coefficient Solver multiplies or divides the coefficients. Then, the Exponent Solver simplifies the powers of ten. Finally, the Checker ensures the final answer is written in proper scientific notation, adjusting if necessary. Once the group has completed all steps, they present their final answer. After each round, students rotate roles.

Guiding Questions: 1. How does place value help us make sense of problems when we add and subtract? [It is important to line up place values so that numbers of the same place are added/ subtracted from like numbers.] 2. Why might scientific notation make it easier to add or subtract really large or really small numbers? [Numbers written in scientific notation are usually more compact than their equivalent number in standard form, and we are less likely to lose digits, especially when there are a lot of zeros floating around.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Start the lesson by explaining to students that to add or subtract numbers in scientific notation, the exponents on the powers of ten must be the same. Write the problem from the Learn and Connect section on the board, (7 × 105) + (4 × 103). Ask students why they can’t separate 7 and 4 and add like they would when solving multiplication problems. Point out that it is not possible to simply add 7 and 4 because the numbers 7 and 4 are not actually in the same place values when written in standard form (have a student write these numbers in standard form to prove this). Explain to students that we can temporarily change one of the numbers to improper scientific notation so that the powers of ten match. We can work with numbers that are not in proper scientific notation, as long as we put our final answer in the correct form. Tell students that it is recommended to change the number with the lower exponent so that it matches the higher exponent because it is more efficient, accurate, and prevents having to adjust the exponent after simplifying. Next, demonstrate how to add the coefficients while keeping the common power of ten in the final sum. Tell students that they should always check to make sure their answer is in proper scientific notation at the end. Repeat the process with a subtraction example, this time having students help you convert one number to the same power of ten before subtracting. Emphasize that matching the exponents first is the essential step before solving and that changing the numbers to match the higher of the two exponents will be helpful.

Each pair adds and subtracts their two numbers and writes down the results. After completing the pair work, one row shuffles so that each student now works with a new partner, repeating the process. Continue for five to six rounds so that each student works with all students in the next row. To close, have students share a few of the problems they created and solved with the class. Discuss common pitfalls, such as forgetting to match exponents before combining, and emphasize strategies for avoiding these mistakes.
COMMON ERRORS Students may change the coefficient but forget to adjust the exponent accordingly or adjust it in the wrong way.

Guiding Questions: 1. In what real-world fields might scientific notation be helpful and why? [Astronomy, sociology, biology, chemistry, economics, technology, etc. Scientific notation is helpful in these fields because they often work with very large or very small numbers.] 2. Why is it important to understand scientific notation? [It is widely used in real-world fields such as space science, medicine, technology, and finance, and we may come across these numbers when reading the news or seeing advertisements.]
How much total fuel did the spaceship use during the entire mission? Step 1: Multiply to find how much fuel is used during travel.
Step 2: Add the launch fuel.
2.0 × 103 liters/hour × 195 hours (2.0 × 195) × 103 = 390 × 103 = 3.9 × 105
(3.9 × 105) + (3.2 × 106) (0.39 × 106) + (3.2 × 106) = (0.39 + 3.2) × 106 = 3.59 × 106
Final Answer: 3.59 × 106 liters of fuel were used during the mission.

Tell students that the United States census is a survey given by the government to the citizens of the U.S. every ten years. The survey gathers information about the population in order to be able to better serve the population in each state. According to the U.S. Census, the population of the U.S. in the year 2000 was 281,421,906. Write this number on the board and tell students that often, large numbers such as these are rounded and then changed into scientific notation so that they will look cleaner in presentations, advertisements, or news articles. Ask students to round this number to the nearest ten millionth. [280,000,000] Next, ask them to change this number to scientific notation. [2.8 × 108]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Inform students that today’s lesson will focus on real-life applications of scientific notation. Begin by reading the word problem in the Learn and Connect section aloud and asking students to identify the important pieces of information. [the amount of fuel used for launch, the rate of fuel used in travel, the length of the mission] Next, ask what the first step should be to solve this problem. [multiply to determine the amount of fuel used during travel] Have students help you work through the multiplication together. Then, ask what the next step is. [adding the launch fuel] Write out the addition statement and have students assist in solving it. Have students add a unit to the final answer and explain what the solution means in the context of the problem [in total, the mission used 3.59 × 106 liters of fuel].
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students work in pairs to solve problems 1-4 in the Apply section. Review as a class and ask students to share their reasoning for each answer choice. Next, work through problems 1-4 in the Exercise section as a class, asking students to identify the key words in the problem that tell them which operation they will need to use to solve. As you solve, remind students of the rules for each operation. Then, have students work in pairs to solve questions 5-8, followed by a class review. Conclude by working through any problems students found especially challenging. Lighthouse MATH Level H | Teacher's Guide

CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE In Challenge problem 9, students will need to find the amount of ice lost over a given period of time using a given rate. Then, they will need to decide if the amount of ice lost during another time period - a heatwave - is more than half the amount lost during the initial time period. Guide students towards using division to compare the two quantities since we are talking about a fraction ( 21 ).
Scientific Notation in the Real World Stations: This activity will allow students to see how scientific notation is applied in real-world contexts by practicing with word problems. Set up five different stations around the room, each focused on a specific context: biology, technology, astronomy, finance, and chemistry. At each station, provide a word problem for students to solve that highlights the use of scientific notation in that field. Students will rotate through the stations, working in pairs or small groups to complete the problems and record their solutions. After all groups have visited each station, bring the class together for a discussion. Ask students to share examples they solved, highlight differences between contexts, and reflect on why scientific notation is useful in handling very large and very small numbers.
COMMON ERRORS Students may choose the wrong operation when solving a word problem. Students may forget the rules of multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction of numbers in scientific notation.

Write 1 + 2 + 4 = 7 on the board and ask students to tell you why that is called an equation [because it has an equal sign; because 1 and 2 and 4 combined have the same value as 7]. Ask students to write another equation that is equivalent to this one [such as 3 + 4 = 7]. Next, write 2x + 2x + 3 = 11 on the board. Ask students to tell you why that is also called an equation and how it is different from the first equation. [because it has an equal sign; it is different because it has x’s/numbers we don’t know] Ask students if they can tell you another equation that is equivalent to this one [such as 4x + 3 = 11].

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the equation from the Learn and Connect section on the board: 5(4x − 2) − 19x = 20. Remind students that this is an algebraic equation because it has an equal sign and an unknown value represented by an x. Tell students that before we can solve this equation, we have to simplify it and many equations we will see will need to be simplified before they can be solved. Ask students why we simplify equations. [To make them easier to solve] Ask students which simplification rules could be applied to this equation. Tell students that we cannot combine like terms if some of these terms are inside parentheses and some are outside. You may need to remind students that like terms are terms that have the same variable with the same exponent. If a number is outside parentheses, we need to distribute it to the terms inside the parentheses using multiplication. This is simplifying using the distributive property. Walk through the simplifying steps in the Learn and Connect section to simplify the equation to x − 10 = 20. Finally, solve the equation to get a solution of x = 30. As students transition to practice, tell them to bear in mind as they work that like terms cannot be combined if one is inside and one is outside parentheses. Ask them what needs to get done first in order to be able to simplify an equation in such a scenario. [Distributive property]

go over the answers as a class to ensure understanding. Next, go through problems 2-4 together as a class. Although students are asked to solve the equation, the emphasis in this lesson should be on the simplifying steps. They may need a reminder about how to solve an algebraic equation, including to use inverse operations to solve and to start with addition/subtraction first and then multiplication/division. Have students complete problems 1-9 independently. Go over problems 1, 4, and 7, discussing the steps to get a simplified equation and solve. Finally, work together to create equations for problems 10 and 11, then have students simplify and solve them on their own.
ACTIVITY Simplify Me: The purpose of this activity is to have students work together to practice combining like terms and using the distributive property. Create notecards each with a different (but “like”) term or expressions in which the distributive property can be applied. Shuffle the cards and pass them out to students. Each group should get several cards. They should write down all the terms from their cards and combine them by first applying the distributive property where possible, and then combining like terms until they’ve simplified the expression as much as possible. Give students a few minutes to work, then have them switch their cards with another group and do the process again with the new set of cards. As time permits, shuffle the cards and redistribute to groups to create brand-new expressions that can be simplified.
COMMON ERRORS Students may try to combine like terms before completing the distributive property. Students may forget to distribute to all the terms inside the parentheses.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Tell students that they began simplifying and solving equations in the last lesson, and this lesson will focus on the skills needed to simplify and solve more complex equations involving squares, square roots, and fractions. Use the chart in the Learn and Connect section to go over which operations are the opposite or inverse of one another, and tell students that they will be using inverse operations to solve these equations. Explain that similarly, when solving, the reverse order of operations or SADMEP is used. It is important to remember that roots are in the same category as exponents and that fractions and roots can act like parentheses. Parentheses can be drawn in to remind us of what is grouped. Go over the two examples in the Learn and Connect section that show how to solve equations involving squares and square roots. Emphasize that these inverse operations undo another. Therefore, when they square a square root, all that is left is what was under the root to begin with. Then, they can use SADMEP to solve. Also remind students that there are two solutions to a square root. One is positive, the other negative.

Ask students: How do we solve an algebraic equation? [By isolating the variable] Write the algebraic equation from the Learn and Connect section on the board. Ask students what they notice about it that makes it different from other equations they have solved. [It has an x on both sides.] Ask students to turn to a partner and discuss, “What do you think we have to do to this equation in order to be able to solve it?” Have students share what they discussed. Help students come to the conclusion that in order to isolate x in this equation, we must combine the variables on one side. Tell students that we can do this by using inverse operations and remind them that whatever they do to one side, they must do to the other side. Additionally, when combining variables, always look for a way to make the coefficient in front of the variable positive. Ask: Which inverse operation can be used to combine -7x2 with -4x2? [addition] What should be added so that the result is positive? [7x2] Under the equation on the board, write out the step of adding 7x2 to both sides and the equivalent equation that results. At this point, the equation will have a variable only on one side. Ask students to walk you through the remaining steps of isolating the variable. [adding 82 to both sides, dividing by 3, taking the square root] Be sure to write out each step and the resulting equation. Remind students that when we take the square root of 36, there are two possible answers: 6 and -6.

If students struggle to set up the equation for problem 18, advise them to use smaller numbers first and replace them with the numbers written in scientific notation after. Then, remind students of the rules for adding and subtracting (the exponents on the powers of ten must match) as well as multiplying and dividing (multiply or divide the coefficients and either add or subtract the exponents on the power of ten) in scientific notation. For part B, students will need to use substitution to find out how much each company pays.
Have students solve problems 1 and 3 in the Apply section with a partner. Review the answers and strategies used as a class. Next, have students solve problems 2 and 4 independently. Then, have them swap their work with a friend to compare their answers. Review as a class to ensure understanding. Solve problem 6 from the Exercise section together as a class. Then, have students solve problems 1-5 and 7-12 independently. Solve problem 16 together as a class and then have students complete problems 13-15, and 17 independently. Review the answers, discussing the error made in problem 13, as well as strategies for writing equations for the word problems.
ACTIVITY Equation Walk-the-Room: Prepare notecards with equations that have variables on both sides. Each card should be labeled with a letter. Any card with the same letter has the same solution. Give each student a card to solve. Then, have them walk around the room to find another card with the same letter to see if they solved theirs correctly. If the pair solved correctly, their letters and answers should match. If someone solved incorrectly, they will need to work together to find and fix the error to discover which answer was correct.
COMMON ERRORS Students may forget to combine all like terms. Students may forget negative or positive sign rules when combining like terms.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by writing the problem 6p + 22 = 4p − 8 on the board and ask students to solve. Write the solution, p = -15. Ask: How many solutions are there to this equation? [one] Write “one solution” at the bottom. Next, write 12m + 18 = 6(2m + 2) on the board and ask students to solve. Ask: What do we need to do first? [Distribute] What should we do next? [Move our variables to one side] What are we left with? [18 = 12] Is 18 = 12 a true statement? [No] Say: Since 18 cannot equal 12, we know that this problem has no solution. An equation has no solution if the values at the end do not equal one another. Write “no solution” at the bottom. Next, write 10q + 4 = 2(5q + 2) on the board and have students solve. When students get the solution, 4 = 4, ask: Is this a true statement? [yes] Explain that when this happens, it means that if any number is inserted for x it will always be right. There are infinitely many solutions to this problem. Have students check by inserting 6, 9, 12, and 0 for x. Write “infinitely many solutions” at the bottom of this problem. Ask students if, looking back at their work, they can see why the second problem has no solution [Because the variable m on both sides has a coefficient of 12, but the constant is different. It can’t be true that you have 12 “m”s and 18 but also 12 “m”s and 12.] and why the third problem has infinitely many solutions. [Because the variable q has the same coefficient on both sides, and the constant is the same; it’s the same expression on both sides.]

APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students simplify each equation in the Apply section without solving. Then, have students make a prediction as to whether each equation will have one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. Then, solve each equation together. Have students look back at their work to see if they predicted correctly or not. Next, have students complete problems 1-12 in the Exercise section. Then, model problem 15 and have them go back and complete problems 13 and 14. Guide students through problem 16, and then have them complete problem 17 independently.
ACTIVITY Equation Relay Races: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice solving and recognizing equations with different types of solutions. Split students into two teams. Give each team a pile of equation cards. Draw a chart on the board for each team with sections titled: one solution, no solution, and infinitely many solutions. Have the teams race to complete an equation and place it under the correct answer category. The first team to complete all their cards correctly wins!
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 18, students will need to create equations for each category. If they have not yet figured out what makes an equation end up with no solution or infinite solutions, give them the following example: 4x + 7 = 4x + 15. Ask: What do you notice is the same, and what is different about the two sides of this equation? [Equal coefficients will cause the variables to cancel out. Since the constants are different, we will be left with an untrue statement.] Then, use “What if” variations: Change one constant so that instead of no solution, the equation will have infinitely many solutions, and ask students to tell you why.
COMMON ERRORS Students may forget to follow the order of operations. Students may confuse no solution with completing the problem incorrectly.

APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Read the problem in the Apply section together with students. Then, ask them to fill in the blanks below to write an equation. Check with students to be sure they filled in the blanks correctly. Ask: What does w represent? [the number of weeks] Ask students to solve the equation independently, then review the answer and have a volunteer explain the solution in context of the problem. Next, have students work with a partner to solve each problem in the Exercise section. Remind them to first determine what is being compared as well as what the variable represents. Then, have them write and solve an equation. Review the answers together as a class and address any questions to ensure understanding.
ACTIVITY Creative Equations: The purpose of this activity is to have students work together with a partner to come up with a scenario that an equation could model. Provide a notecard with one equation for each pair of students. Students need to work together to create a scenario that matches the equation. They must write down what the variable represents, what question we are asking about the variable, and what is being done mathematically to that variable that matches the equation. Have students check with another pair to be sure their work is accurate, then have pairs share their scenarios with the class.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 8, point out to students that they are not looking for when Nancy and Emily will have equal amounts of money saved up; rather, they want to know when Nancy will have more savings than Emily. This means that they will not use an equal sign; they will use a greater than sign. Explain that the problem is solved the same way. However, the explanation changes in context. At three weeks, the girls have the same amount of savings, and once the three-week mark passes, Nancy’s savings are higher than Emily’s.
COMMON ERRORS Students may misinterpret what the variable represents in a given problem.

For part B of problem 15 in the Exercise section, point out that instead of solving for the number of rooms, they now need to solve for Dave's price per room. Students will need to calculate the amount that Ben would charge for 10 rooms (1000 + 50) and set that equal to 10x (x being Dave's unknown rate and 10 being the number of rooms) and solve for x. They will then do the same for 5 rooms (500 + 50 = 5x) and for 1 room (100 + 50 = x) and solve for x each time.

Tic-Tac-Toe: Split the class into two teams, Team X and Team O. Draw a tictac-toe board on the board. One student from Team X is called up and chooses a square. In order to claim the square, the student must solve an equation. If solved correctly, the student marks an X in the box for their team. If solved incorrectly, the team loses their turn to place and Team O gets a chance to solve. The first team to get three boxes in a row wins. Continue playing rounds until each student gets a turn. For an added bonus, have one or two mystery squares per tic-tac-toe board. If chosen, the student is given a word problem to solve. If solved correctly, the team gets a double turn. If solved incorrectly, the problem is given to the next team. If the next team solves it correctly, they get to fill in the square and go again.
COMMON ERRORS Students may forget to combine all like terms. Students may confuse “no solution” with solving the problem incorrectly. Students may forget positive or negative answers when solving problems with square roots.

Lesson 1
Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the table in the Learn and Connect section to review how to find the input and output values when a rule is given. Tell students that the rule is really an equation because it tells us what to do with our input, or x-value, in order to get the output, or y-value that goes with it. When a number is put into a equation, we replace the x in that rule with that number and then follow the order of operations to find the corresponding output or y-value. Then, we can use the table to create a set of ordered pairs to graph the relationship described by the rule. Go through the examples in the table, asking students to help you calculate the output for each input. Next, help students compile the corresponding x’s and y’s into ordered pairs, reminding them that x always comes first. Then, show students how to graph an ordered pair by starting at the origin, finding the x-value on the x-axis, moving up or down based on the y-value, and then drawing a dot at that point. Ask students what shape we see on the graph after plotting all of the ordered pairs from the table. [a line]
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students work with a partner to complete the tables in the Apply section. Tell students that in problem 2, they need to find some y-values and also some x-values. Remind them that they will need to replace the y-value in order to solve for x.

Tell students that today, we are going to be talking about a concept that is similar to a vending machine. Explain that a vending machine is loaded so that each lane is filled with one type of product. Ask students: After you give money to a vending machine, how do you choose your product? [You press the button that identifies the lane your desired product is in.] Then what happens? [The machine dispenses the product.] Use the Guiding Questions below to begin a discussion that will lead into the unit on functions. Guiding Questions: 1. What is the input and what is the output in the vending machine scenario? [input - the button(s) you press; output - the product you get] 2. What is the relationship between the input and output in this scenario? [The product you get (output) depends on what button you press (input).] 3. What happens if the person behind you in line presses the same button as you? [They will get the same product.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Read the definition of a function from the Learn and Connect section and ask students how a vending machine represents a real-life situation that is a function. [Each input - the button you press - has exactly one output - your desired product.] Use the table in the Learn and Connect section to teach students how to recognize a function in different forms and how to recognize when a relationship is not a function. Emphasize that in the broken keyboard example, sometimes the letter R will be typed when the R button is pressed, and sometimes the letter T will be typed. Since it could be either, this is not a function. Show students that the x-value 1 repeats in the list of coordinate pairs and in the table in the non-function column. Contrast the equations that are listed in the next row. Have students notice that when the equation says x = 2 (or any number), we are being told what the input is, and since there is no output listed, all the outputs will be valid, therefore the same input will have multiple outputs. Show students how the graph for x = 2 is a vertical line to reinforce this idea. Leave this graph on the board as you begin to explain about the graphs of functions. Tell students that there a special test we can do to see if a graph is truly a function. It is called the vertical line test. Any vertical line drawn anywhere on the coordinate plane will cross the graph of a function only once. Remind students that the graph of x = 2 was a vertical line, so it is automatically not a function. Show students the example and non-example from the graph row on the table in the Learn and Connect section.

ACTIVITY Function Fix: The purpose of this activity is to have students become comfortable recognizing when something is not a function. Give students a list of non-functions in all the different forms and have them fix them in some way so that they will be valid functions. Using the examples of non-functions from the table in the Learn and Connect section, students could say, “Fix the broken keyboard so that only R will type, change (1, 3) to (3, 3) so that each x-value has exactly one unique y-value, change the output for the second 1 in the table so that it is also 4, change x = 2 to y = 2. Now it is a horizontal line. Eliminate the bottom curve on the graph so that a vertical line will only pass through once."
COMMON ERRORS Students may think that a function with a repeating output is not a function. Students may think that any graph with a curve is not a function.
ASSESS Have students choose one modality of representing a function and write a valid function and non-function example. They should write one sentence explaining why each is a function or not. Lighthouse MATH Level H | Teacher's Guide

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Read aloud the scenario in the Learn and Connect section about Morris’s bike trip. Ask students to follow along with their finger on the graph as you read. Next, ask students to put their finger on the title of the graph. Explain to students that it is important to read the title of a graph because it helps us understand what is going on and interpret the story the graph is telling. In this case, we are graphing Morris’s distance from home over time. Next, ask students what the x-variable and y-variable are and how they are measured. [x: time measured in hours; y: distance from home measured in miles] Ask students to put their finger on the point that shows how far away from home Morris is when no time has passed. [0,0] Ask a student to interpret this point on the graph. [When no time has passed, Morris is zero miles away from home; he is at home.] Next, ask students to put their finger on the point where Morris turned around. [(3,18)] Ask a student to explain what this point means. [After 3 hours, Morris has gone 18 miles.] Ask students how they know that Morris turned around here. [Because after this point, the line starts to slope downward, meaning that as more time goes on, Morris is getting closer to home (the y-value is decreasing).] Point out to students that the two lines that form the graph are straight lines. This means that Morris is moving at a constant speed along each line.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Tell students that some functions will form a straight line on a graph, and these functions are called linear functions. Any function that is curved or made up of more than one different straight line is called nonlinear. Show the students the two graphs in the Learn and Connect section to emphasize the difference between the graphs of linear and nonlinear functions. Have students compare the equations under each graph. Tell students that an equation for a linear function is called a linear equation, and it will not have any exponents, while an equation for a nonlinear function might have exponents. Next, have students create a table of values for the graph of the linear function based on the ordered pairs listed on the graph. Have them tell you what patterns they see in the table. [The x-values increase by 1, and the y-values increase by 2.] Explain that the reason the graph forms a straight line is that both the y-values and the xvalues follow a pattern. In all linear functions, as the x-values increase by 1, the y-values will always change by a given amount. The x- and y-values of nonlinear functions will not follow a pattern like this. Each time the x-values go up by 1, the y-values will change by a different amount. Students can create a table of values for the graph of the nonlinear function to prove this.

Have students complete problems 1-3 in the Apply section independently, then check the answers as a class. To ensure understanding, ask students to explain how they knew that the linear functions were linear, besides the fact that the graph is a straight line. Next, have students complete problems 1-4 in the Exercise section independently and review the answers and strategies as a class. Work together to complete problem 5 as a class by first creating an equation that serves as the rule for the function, then creating a table of values, and finally, plotting and connecting the points on the graph. Ask students at each step whether they think the function is linear or not and why. Finally, work together as a class to determine if the equations in problems 6-9 are linear or not.
ACTIVITY Match It: The purpose of this activity is for students to familiarize themselves with linear and nonlinear functions as they are represented in tables and graphs. Give each student a notecard with either a table or a graph that is either linear or nonlinear. Tell students to go to the right side of the room if their function is linear and the left if it is nonlinear. Then, have students find the table or graph that matches their card. Finally, once students find their match, have them write one sentence with their partner explaining why their function is linear or nonlinear.
COMMON ERRORS Students may graph ordered pairs in order to determine if a function is linear and forget that they can look for patterns in how the variables change. Students may think that the x- and y-variables need to increase in the same way in order for the function to be linear.

Tell students that this lesson will cover two important features that all linear equations have: a y-intercept and a slope. Using the graph in the Learn and Connect section as a guide, ask students to put their finger on the y-intercept, the point where the line cross the y-axis. Ask: What are the coordinates of this point? [(0, 1)] Tell students that no matter what the y-intercept is, the x-value of the coordinate pair will always be 0. Ask them why that is. [Because for a point to be on the y-axis, it can’t be to the left or right at all. Therefore its x-value (which tells us how much to move horizontally) must be 0.] Next, ask students to navigate from the y-intercept to the point (4, 4) which is on the line, but tell them they can only move vertically and horizontally, not on a diagonal. Ask them how many boxes it takes to go up [3] and how many it takes to go right to get there. [4] Explain to students that this vertical movement is called the rise, and the horizontal movement is called the run. The ratio of the rise to the run tells us the slope, or steepness, of the line. Next, show students the graphs that show a positive slope and a negative slope and emphasize that we describe graphs as increasing or decreasing based on how their y-values change while the x-values increase.
Guiding Questions: 1. How do you know that the functions are linear from looking at the table? [The numbers in both the x and y columns follow a consistent pattern.] 2. How are the functions similar? How are they different? [Similar: straight lines, y-values change by 2 each time; Different: one goes up from left to right, one goes down from left to right.]

Students can create a graph of a linear function. They should give their graph a title and label the axes with the variables and how they are measured. Then, they should give their graph to another student to find the y-intercept and the slope and explain what the slope means in the context that is given on the graph.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 8, suggest to students that they draw a graph, identify the y-intercept, and then change it while keeping the slope the same. Have them describe what happens to the new graph.
Complete problems 1 and 4 in the Apply section together, then have students complete problems 2 and 3 with a partner. Review the the answers to ensure understanding. Next, have students independently complete problems 1-7 in the Exercise section. Review the answers and strategies as a class. When discussing the slopes for problems 1-4, use the context given on the graph to describe what the slope means in each situation. For problem 6, ask students how they know that the graph on the left is the one with the slope of 4 and how it differs from the graph on the right. [The one on the right has a slope of 41 . It goes up 1 over 4 instead of up 4 over 1.] Ask students which graph is steeper. [The one on the left] Finally, when going over problem 7, ask students to explain why the other answer choices do not work for that graph.
AACTIVITY Positive and Negative Sort: Students will work in groups to sort graphs based on whether their slope is positive or negative. Create a set of cards for each group. Have students find the slope based on the rise and run from one point to another, then have them divide them into separate groups based on if they are positive or negative. Finally, students should identify the y-intercept on each graph.
COMMON ERRORS Students may calculate slope as run/ rise. Students may forget a negative sign when writing a negative slope.

Lesson 6
Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Explain to students that in the last lesson, we found the slope of a line by looking at its rise and run. Ask students what “rise” means. [How much you move in the vertical direction from one point to another] Ask students what “run” means. [How much you move in the horizontal direction from one point to another] Tell students that another way to find rise is to subtract the y-coordinate of one point from the y-coordinate of another point. The difference between the two y-coordinates tells us the how much the line rises from one point to the next. Tell students that another way to find run is to subtract the x-coordinate of one point from the x-coordinate of another point. The difference between the two x-coordinates is the how much the line runs from one point to the next. Tell students that we can divide these two values to find the slope. Next, present the slope formula to students with the example coordinates given in the Learn and Connect section. Have students calculate the slope, emphasizing the importance of the order of the coordinates. Tell them that it doesn’t matter if you do y2 − y1 or y1 − y2 as long as you subtract the x’s in the same order. Also emphasize that the y-values are always divided by the x-values for slope. Next, remind students that the x-coordinate for the y-intercept is always 0. Use the table in the Learn and Connect section to show students how they can easily identify the y-intercept using this knowledge.

One person’s numbers represent (x1, y1) and the other (x2, y2). Next, the pair will calculate the slope between their two points. Have students repeat this process several times, then reconvene as a class to discuss what happened when their y-values were the same [slope of 0] and what kind of line that would make [horizontal line] and what happened when their x-values were the same [undefined slope] and what kind of line that makes.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Replicate the graph from the Learn and Connect section on the board. Include the axes and line, as well as the labeled points, but not the triangles. Ask a student to come to the board and connect point A and point B (first horizontally and then vertically). Ask the class what shape was formed [triangle]. Ask another student to come up to the board and do the same to points B and C in another color. Define these triangles as similar triangles. Ask students why they are similar. [They are the same shape but not the same size.] Explain that triangles drawn this way along the same line will always be the same shape even if they are different sizes. (If students are up for a challenge, you can ask why they think this is the case. [Because the way the line is positioned creates two of the same angles for each triangle drawn on it, and the third angle is a right angle. When all the angles are the same, the shape will be the same, even if the line lengths are different.]) Ask students to find the lengths of both sides of the triangles using the graph boxes as units. Explain that the side lengths of both triangles are proportional and that this is true for any triangle of any size drawn anywhere along this line. Demonstrate this by creating a proportion using the side lengths of each triangle. For the sake of connecting this back to slope, put the y-values in the numerators and the x-values in the denominators. Have students put their finger at any point on the line and go up three boxes, then over one. Have them continue to do this as many times as possible. Their finger should always end up on the line after going up three and over one.

For problem 10, students will need to use the information in the map key in order to set up a proportion for the two triangles and find the missing length of the red trail. Then, they will need to find the total length of the red trail. Next, they will need to compare the length of the blue and red trails combined to the length of the black trail.
Exercise 7

Have students complete the two problems in the Apply section on their own and then review the answers as a class. Next, have students work with a partner to complete problems 1-9, reminding them that they can set up a proportion for all the problems because any triangle drawn on a line will be proportionate to any other triangle drawn on the same line. Review the answers and strategies as a class to ensure understanding.
ACTIVITY Lining Up Triangles: The purpose of this activity is for students to see how similar triangles relate to slope in a hands-on way. Have students draw a horizontal line that is three boxes long on a piece of graph paper. Next, have them draw a vertical line from the end of their horizontal line that is five boxes long. Tell them to connect the remaining two endpoints to form a right triangle. Ask them to create three more triangles that are proportionate to this triangle. Remind students that they can use various scale factors to find the lengths of their additional triangles. After they have drawn all their triangles, have them cut out their triangles and then arrange them on a diagonal so that their third sides are all lined up to form a straight line. They can use a straight edge to assist them with this. Ask them to tell you the slope of the line that they created when lining up their triangles in this way. [ 53 ]
COMMON ERRORS Students may set up proportions incorrectly by not lining up y-values in the numerators and x-values in the denominators.

Next, ask students to recall what the x-value is at the y-intercept. [0] Tell students that for this exercise, we will write the coordinate of the y-intercept as (0, b) since the x-value is always 0 and b represents any y-intercept. Next, have students place this coordinate in the slope formula for point (x1, y1). Write it on the board as follows: m=
y−b x−0
Next ask students: What if we wanted to figure out the value of y (for a given x)? What would the equation have to look like? Walk students through the process of rearranging the equation so that it says y = instead of m = by multiplying both sides by x and then adding b to both sides. Tell students that the resulting equation, y = mx + b, is the standard formula that is used for all linear equations. Guiding Questions: 1. Why is the x-coordinate of the y-intercept always 0? [because to get to that point on the graph, you don’t travel right or left at all] 2. How can we rearrange an equation? [Use inverse operations and always do the same thing to both sides.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Remind students that all lines that are graphed have linear equations. These equations describe the line and act like a formula for us to use to find more points along the line and make predictions about where the line, or the variables described, are headed. Use the Learn and Connect section to show students that the formula for a linear equation is y = mx + b. Tell them that this is called slope-intercept form because the m represents the slope of the line, and the b represents the y-intercept of the line. Use the graph in the Learn and Connect section to show students how to find the slope and the y-intercept and input them into the formula to find the equation of the line.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students complete the problems in the Apply section on their own and then review the answers as a class to ensure understanding. Next, complete problems 1, 6, 11, and 15 in the Exercise section together as a class to model the processes. Then, have students complete the rest of the problems on the page independently. Review some answers and strategies as a class and discuss how students knew which lines pass through the origin in problem 19. Remind students that the origin is (0,0) on a graph, therefore, the y-intercept would have to be 0, and the b-value would also need to be 0.

Lesson 9
Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Tell students that the equation for a linear function gives us all the information we need to graph the line. Use the steps in the Learn and Connect section to show students how to use this information to graph the line defined by the formula y = 2x + 1. The first step is to plot the y-intercept at (0, 1). Step two is to use the slope to find another point on the graph. Remind students here that slope is rise/run. If the slope is a whole number and not a fraction, recommend that students change the whole number to a fraction over 1. Now, the slope has a rise and a run. Show students how to start at the y-intercept (0, 1), go up two boxes (the rise), move over one box to the right (the run), and put a dot at (1, 3). At this point, students can use a ruler to connect the two dots and extend the line in either direction. It may be beneficial to show students how to work backwards with the slope, as well. Have them go to the point (0, 1) and go down two boxes, over one box, and plot a point at (-1, -1). This point should be on the line they already drew. Having them plot this extra point will help them to see how working backwards can also help them find a point on the line. Finally, use the example in the Learn and Connect section to show students how to choose an x-value to find another point on the line by plugging the x-value into the equation and solving for y. Have students plot this point on the graph as well. Ask: If we know a y-value, how can we find a corresponding x-value? [Plug in y and solve for x.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the example provided in the Learn and Connect section to model for students how to translate a word problem into a linear equation that can then be graphed. First, read aloud the word problem. Then, have students read it to themselves a second time. Next, explain to students the four things we need to identify to help us create a linear equation: the input (or what x represents), the output (or what y represents), the slope (the rate of change), and the y-intercept (the starting point). Ask students to identify each of these in the example problem, one by one. [Input (x) is the number of weeks, output (y) is the amount of money in Sam’s wallet, slope is $1.50, and y-intercept is $20.] Next, show students how to compile this into an equation, emphasizing that y and x remain as letters because they are variables; they change. [y = -1.5x + 20] Finally, have students sketch the graph of the scenario. Ask them whether the graph increases or decreases and why. [Decreases, because as time goes on, the amount of money in Sam's wallet goes down. Or, the line slopes down from left to right.]

Exercise 10
For problem 4, students will need to calculate the rate at which the vehicle was traveling by first finding the distance it traveled [51 − 6 = 45] and dividing it by the time traveled [45 3 = 15]. They will need to identify the y-intercept as 6 and define the x and y variables as time in hours and distance traveled in miles. After interpreting the slope as the speed of the vehicle, challenge students to write the linear equation that models this scenario.

1-3 in the Exercise section. In problems 1 and 2, ensure that students complete all parts, including creating an equation, defining variables, graphing the line, labeling the axes, answering a question about the graph and plotting a point. In problem 3, students will need to recognize that the line will pass through (0, 0), meaning that it has a y-intercept of 0, and they will need to interpret that in the context of the problem.
ACTIVITY Identify and Define: The purpose of this activity is to have students practice identifying slope and y-intercept as well as variables in a real-world situation. Divide students into groups. Create a set of notecards for each group with different phrases such as “52 miles per hour,” “started 18 miles from home,” and “traveled along a road for a period of time.” Students should identify which card is the slope, which is the y-intercept, which is the input, and which is the output. Then they will write an equation that models the scenario and graph it. Finally, they should think of two questions they can ask, such as “How far from home is the car after three hours?” and “How long would it take to travel 20 miles?”
COMMON ERRORS Students may be unsure what x and y represent in a problem. Students may confuse slope and y-intercept.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
Ask students to tell you the four features of a linear function that help us write a linear equation and graph the function [input, output, slope, and y-intercept]. Explain to students that because all linear functions have these features, we can use them to compare different linear functions. Use the table and the graph in the Learn and Connect section to show this process. Explain that these show how much water is in two different buckets over time. Have one student explain how to find the slope from the table [The y-values increase by 2 as the x-values increase by 1, so the slope is 2], and have another student explain how to find the slope on the graph. [There is a rise of 1 for every 2 boxes on the run, so the slope is 21 .] Ask students what these slopes tell us about the buckets and how they know. [Since the slopes are positive, the buckets are filling with water.] Ask students to contrast the two functions given their slopes. [Bucket A is filling faster than bucket B.] Next, have a student explain how to identify the y-intercept from the table [when x = 0, y = 0]. Have a student explain how to find the y-intercept from the graph [the line crosses the y-axis at (0, 2)], and have another student explain what the y-intercepts mean. [Bucket A starts off empty, while bucket B starts off with two inches of water already in it.]

Have students return to the example in the Learn and Connect section. Have them graph the data for Bucket A on the same coordinate plane that Bucket B is graphed on. Ask them to determine if the buckets will ever have the same amount of water at the same time, and if so, about how much water would be in the bucket at that time [Yes, almost 3 inches]. Then, have them compare how long it will take each bucket to fill up to six inches of water [bucket A - 3 minutes, bucket B, 7 minutes].
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 11, students will need to create an equation for Anna and an equation for Sara to model how many stickers they each have in their collections. Then, they will need to use 100 as an output (y-value) to find how long it takes for each to reach 100 stickers in their collection.
Have students work in pairs to complete problems 1-7 in the Apply section. They will need to identify the slope and y-intercept of each function and then answer which has the greatest and least slope and y-intercept. Review answers as a class, and then have students work independently on problems 1-10 in the Exercise section. Review the answers as a class, focusing on problems 7-10, which compare different functions in different forms that all track temperature in different cities.
ACTIVITY Linear Function Investigation: The purpose of this activity is to have students explore what lines with the same slope but different y-intercepts look like on a graph. Ask students to graph y = 21 x + 3 on a piece of graph paper. Then, have them graph y = 21 x − 1 on the same coordinate plane. Ask students what they notice about both equations. [Their slopes are the same.] Ask them what they notice about the lines they graphed. [They are parallel.] Alternatively, ask students if the two lines they graphed will ever touch. [No.] Have students write two more equations with the same slope and different y-intercept to see if these lines will behave in the same way. Ask students to think about what would happen if two lines have different slopes but the same y-intercept? [The lines would cross at the y-axis.]
COMMON ERRORS Students may misinterpret negative numbers as larger than positive numbers.

Guiding Questions: 1. Why is it important to define the x- and y-variable of a function? [We need to know what the input is and what the output is in order to understand the relationship.] 2. Why does a linear function form a straight line when graphed? [Because the rate of change stays the same; as x increases, y always changes in the same way] 3. How are similar triangles related to slope of a line? [Similar right triangles (which are proportionate) can be drawn all along the slope of a line. The ratio of their side lengths is the same as the slope of the line.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the table in the Learn and Connect section and the example of the function defined as a tank leaking over time as an in-depth review into how slope and y-intercept show up in different forms. Begin by reading the word form text in the column on the left. Then, ask students to pick out the words that tell us about the slope [rate] and y-intercept [full]. Be sure that students understand that the slope is always the rate of change, and the y-intercept is the starting point. Next, show students the table of values and have a student explain how to find the slope from the table. [The x-values consistently increase by 1, while the y-values decrease by 2.] Have another student choose two points from the table to use to calculate the slope with the slope formula. Ask another student to pick out the y-intercept from the table and explain their reasoning. Move to the graph next. Have students put their finger on the y-intercept, and then have them move their finger down two boxes to the right, one box at a time repeatedly, until they get to the bottom of the line. Confirm with students that they always end up with their finger on the line after going down 2 over 1. Finally, have students note the equation in the right hand column on the table. Ask them why the x-variable is defined as time, while the y-variable is defined as water in the tank. [The y-variable is the output, and it depends on the input. The amount of water in the tank depends on how much time has passed.]

At the state fair, Nick wants to buy popcorn for the best value. Vendor A sells a 48-ounce bucket of popcorn for $9.60. Vendor B sells an 80-ounce bucket for $18.40. He wants to see which gives the better value. Nick can use the unit rate, or how much each costs per one unit, to compare the two vendors. To find the unit rate, divide the total by the number of units.

Explain that this table uses a ratio to evaluate costs, and today’s lesson will review using unit rates and proportions to find and compare rates and find missing values. Guiding Questions: 1. How can we use ratios to find the missing values? [Find the unit rate and use a proportion to solve for a missing piece.] 2. Why is finding a unit rate important when solving? [It allows us to easily calculate any missing value since it is per 1 unit.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin the lesson by writing the key vocabulary terms, unit rate, proportion, and better buy, on the board. Ask students to define each word as a brief review and discuss their meanings as a class. Next, read aloud the word problem about Nick buying popcorn at the state fair and ask how they could compare the two vendors’ prices. Guide students to recognize that finding the unit rate allows a fair comparison. Then, work through setting up proportions for both vendors and demonstrate how to simplify them. Discuss how the resulting unit rates confirm that Vendor A offers the better buy. Continue with the next part of the problem by asking students how to set up a proportion to find the missing value. Review the steps of cross multiplying and dividing to solve, and emphasize interpreting the answer in context. Conclude by explaining that this is just one of many real-world situations where proportions and unit rates are useful.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Work through problems 1-3 in the Apply section together as a class to review solving proportions. Emphasize how to correctly set up each ratio, identify the corresponding terms, and use cross multiplication to solve for the missing value.

ACTIVITY Carnival Stands Better Buys: This activity allows students to apply their understanding of proportions and unit rates in a real-world context. Divide the class into groups of two or three and assign each group a type of carnival stand, such as a popcorn booth, lemonade stand, or carnival game. Ensure that at least two groups are assigned the same type of stand to create opportunities for comparison later. Each group will design a poster advertising three different price levels for their product (for example, a carnival game might cost a certain amount for three tries, five tries, and ten tries). Remind students that their prices must remain proportional. After all posters are complete, display the similar stands side by side around the room. Have students walk around to compare the stands, calculate unit rates, and decide which offers the better buy. Students should record their findings and conclusions, then share and discuss as a class to reinforce how proportional reasoning helps identify the best deal.

Explain to students that when proportional relationships are graphed, they form a straight line that passes through the origin. Draw the price chart for renting a boat from the Learn and Connect section on the board. Then, ask a student to sketch the graph of these rates on the board while the other students check to see if they are in a proportional relationship. [Yes, the unit rate is $12 per hour.] Next, ask the students to find the slope of the graph. [12] Ask students if they think it's a coincidence that these two have the same value. Remind students that the slope of the graph is its rate of change. For a linear function, the slope is always the same. For a proportion, the unit rate is always the same. Therefore, the unit rate will show up as the slope of the graph. Have a student demonstrate that this unit rate is the same as the slope, using any of the points plotted to confirm consistency. Conclude by emphasizing that in proportional relationships, the slope and the unit rate represent the same constant of proportionality: the rate of change per one unit on the graph, in the equation, and in the real-world context.
Ask students to work with a partner to confirm which tables show a proportional relationship. [cups of sugar to cups of flour] Once students determine which tables show proportional relationships, ask them to explain how they know. Then ask students to predict how this table would look like when graphed. Have students assist with plotting the table on a graph on the board. Ask students what they notice about the graph. [Straight line through the origin] Inform students that today’s lesson is focused on reviewing graphs of proportional relationships. Guiding Questions: 1. How can we determine if a table has a proportional relationship? [All values simplify to the same ratio.] 2. How can we tell if a graph shows a proportional relationship?

through the origin, while non-proportional relationships do not. Next, model problems 1 and 4 in the Exercise section as examples for students to reference. Then have students work with a partner to solve problems 2-9, discussing their reasoning and checking their answers together. Conclude by reviewing the set as a class and selecting a few problems to solve on the board, reinforcing key ideas about identifying proportional relationships and interpreting slope.
ACTIVITY Proportional Graph Matching: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice connecting real-world scenarios to the graphs that represent them. Have students work in pairs to write a short real-world scenario that involves a proportional relationship on an index card (for example, the cost of renting a bike per hour or the number of miles traveled at a constant speed). On a second card, have them draw the corresponding graph of the relationship. Collect all the cards and organize them into four stations, keeping each matching pair together at the same station. Divide the class into four groups and assign each group to a station. At each station, students work together to match each scenario card with its corresponding graph card, recording their reasoning on a response sheet. After a set amount of time, have groups rotate through all four stations to complete each set. Conclude by reviewing the matches as a class and inviting groups to share their thinking. Emphasize that proportional graphs always form a straight line through the origin and that the steepness, or slope, represents the constant of proportionality that connects the situation to its graph.
Have students write a short reflection explaining how the unit rate and slope are connected in proportional relationships. Ask them to describe in their own words why a proportional graph must pass through the origin and what the slope tells us about the situation. Encourage them to include a real-world example in their explanation.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE Work through problems 10 and 11 together as a class. For problem 10, ask students to give examples of nonproportional linear equations and graphs and then discuss how these differ from the graphs and equations of proportional relationships (for instance, lines that do not pass through the origin or have an added constant). For problem 11, create a class list of different methods for finding the unit rate, such as using a table, an equation, or the slope from a graph, and discuss how each method connects to the others.
COMMON ERRORS Students may divide x by y instead of y by x to find the slope. Students may forget that graphs of proportional relationships must go through the origin.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Start the lesson by asking students to use their prior knowledge to come up with an equation for a proportional relationship. Say: In the last chapter, we wrote equations for lines. What was the formula? [y = mx + b] What did m and b stand for? [m = slope, b = y-intercept] In this chapter, we’re talking about proportional relationships. What is something special about a line that is a proportional relationship? [It goes through the origin.] How does that affect the equation y = mx + b? [It makes the y-intercept 0, so there's no b; y = mx] How do you know? [When x = 0, it tells you what the y-intercept is, so it must always be 0 in a proportional relationship since all these lines go through (0,0)] Write the formula y = kx on the board. Ask students: What does the k represent? [The slope or unit rate] Read the word problem in the Learn and Connect section about Eitan and Mannie's homework times. Start with Eitan’s table and ask students how to find the unit rate. [Divide the y-values by the x-values.] Then, evaluate the unit rate using each data point to confirm consistency. Next, ask students to create the equation that represents the time it takes for Eitan to solve a math problem, reminding them that the unit rate is the slope. [y = 1.4x] Move on to Mannie’s graph and ask students how to find the unit rate from the graph. [Find the slope.] Ask students how we know that it remains constant. [It's a straight line.] Then, ask students to write the equation that represents Mannie’s rate. [y = 1.5x] Finally, ask students who solves problems faster and how they know. [Mannie, because his unit rate is higher.] Explain that unit rates and equations of proportional relationships can be used to compare proportional relationships and their rates of change.

Have students select one problem from the Exercise section and write two new equations for the same scenario: one showing a greater unit rate and one showing a lesser unit rate. (For example, if the original equation is y = 2x, they might write y = 3x and y = 1.5x.) Ask them to explain how these new rates compare to the original and what that difference would mean in context (e.g., working faster, costing more, or traveling farther per unit).
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 12, students will need to identify slope as a rate and therefore the correct place to look to compare the runners' speeds. Students will need to be able to describe a graph as steeper than another graph based on the angle of the line.
Have students work in pairs to solve problems 1-6 in the Apply section, then review the answers together as a class to ensure understanding. Next, have students work in small groups to complete problems 1-7 in the Exercise section, reminding them that the unit rate is the slope in the equation. Then, have students work with a partner to solve problems 8-11 reminding them to read through the whole problem carefully to find which two things they are comparing. Review the answers and strategies as a class to ensure understanding.
ACTIVITY Comparing Rates in the Real World: Students will extend their understanding of proportional relationships by comparing rates in real-world contexts. Prepare a set of notecards, each containing a short word problem that compares two proportional situations (for example, two people running, two machines producing items, or two stores with different pricing structures). Divide the class into groups of three or four and assign each group three to four word problems from the set. Have students work collaboratively to create a table, a graph, and an equation for each problem to represent and compare the two given rates. Encourage them to determine which scenario shows the greater rate of change and explain how they know. Once all groups have completed their assigned problems, have them present their findings to the class. Conclude with a discussion highlighting how proportional relationships can be represented in multiple ways and how unit rate (the constant of proportionality) allows meaningful comparisons across different real-world situations.
COMMON ERRORS Students may divide x by y when evaluating the unit rate.

y Students will review concepts introduced in Chapter 5.
What is a proportional relationship? When two quantities increase or decrease consistently, they are in a proportional relationship. The ratio of y to x, the unit rate, is always the same. When graphed, the line goes through the origin (0,0). Solving Proportions:
PRE-LESSON WARM-UP
Guiding Questions: 1. How does an equation show a proportional relationship? [It has the form y = kx, where k is constant and the slope.] 2. How does a table show a proportional relationship? [The ratio y ÷ x remains the same for all values.] 3. How does a graph show a proportional relationship? [It forms a straight line that passes through the origin.]

Write or draw a mix of proportional and nonproportional relationships on the board using a variety of tables, graphs, and equations. Include an equation in the form y = kx and one with an added constant, a table with a constant ratio, and a graph that does not pass through the origin. Have students work in pairs to identify which examples represent proportional relationships. Then, ask them to prove their reasoning by showing the same relationship in another form: for example, creating a graph from a table or an equation from a graph. After the groups finish, review as a class to ensure all forms of representation (table, graph, and equation) are clearly connected and understood.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
Write the term “proportional relationship” on the board and ask students to define it in their own words. As students share their ideas, record each definition on the board, continuing until all aspects of proportional relationships have been mentioned, including representations in a table, equation, and graph. Guide students to notice the common features, such as a constant ratio, the equation y = kx, and a straight line through the origin. Then, connect this discussion to the concept of unit rate. Ask students what a unit rate is and how it relates to proportional equations, tables, and graphs. Walk through the table in the Learn and Connect section showing how the unit rate appears as the constant ratio in a table, the coefficient k in an equation, and the slope of the line on a graph. Review the importance of understanding how these forms are connected and how they all describe the same relationship in different ways.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Explain to students that in this lesson, we will explore what two lines that are graphed on the same coordinate plane can tell us. This is called a system of equations. Just like we can find the solution to an equation, we can find the solution to a system of equations. Have students open their books and look at the table in the Learn and Connect section. Begin on the left with the graph with one solution. Point out the equations for each line and ask students to compare and contrast them. [They have different slopes and different y-intercepts.] Emphasize that when lines have different slopes, they will intersect on a graph. The point where the two lines cross is the solution to this system. Next, ask students what they notice about the lines in the second graph. [They don't cross; they are parallel.] Ask them what they notice about the equations for the two lines on this graph. [They have the same slope and different y-intercepts.] Emphasize that when lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, they will be parallel and there will be no solution to the system. Ask students why they think that is. [Parallel lines will never cross, so there is no point of intersection.] Finally, have students notice the final graph on the right with two overlapping lines and the same equation. Explain that when this happens, it means there will be an infinite amount of solutions. Ask students to explain what that means. [Every point on the graph is an intersection because the lines were graphed one on top of the other.]

go over the answers as a class to ensure understanding. For problem 1, point out to students that although we can’t see the lines intersecting on the graph, if they were extended, they would in fact cross each other, therefore, there is one solution. Have students continue to work independently on problems 1-8 in the Exercise section. Pause here to review the answers as a class. For problem 2, ask students at what point the lines cross. [(1,-2)] Explain that this is the numerical solution to the system. After going over problems 5-8, ask students why they are being asked to compare the slopes and y-intercepts of two lines. [because it can help us determine whether the lines intersect and how many solutions there are] Next, have students complete problems 9-18 and then review the answers as a class.
ACTIVITY Speed System: The purpose of this activity is for students to compare equations to see how many solutions the system has. Give each student a card with one equation written in slope-intercept form. Be sure that some of the equation cards are repeats of the same equation, that some have just the same slope as another card, and that some have different slopes and different y-intercepts than other cards. Have students form two circles, an inner circle and an outer circle, so that they pair up with one other student in the class. Have the students compare their equations and decide how many solutions their system has. Then call out, “Switch!” and have the inner circle rotate so that each person has a new partner. Have them complete the exercise again until the circle has made one complete turn. Conclude with a discussion of strategy, asking students what they looked at first to compare the equations. [slope]

CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE Explain to students before completing problem 19 that solutions to systems have a meaning based on the context of the problem. First, students will need to write an equation for each person, and then, they need to notice that the slopes and y-intercepts of these equations are different. This will help them conclude that there is one solution to the system. They will need to guess and check to find the number of miles at which the friends will have spent the same amount of money.
COMMON ERRORS Students may think there is no solution on a graph where the lines do not appear to intersect but will eventually intersect somewhere off of the graph. Students may think that if the y-intercepts are the same, there is no solution even if the slopes are different.

Guiding Questions: 1. When all we knew was the total number of chickens the farmer has, could we figure out how many of each type he has? [No, we didn’t have enough information.] 2. Once we were told that he has twice as many hens as roosters, how could we find the solution? [We found the spot on our table where the number of hens was double the number of roosters.]

y = 11x – 7
The solution to a system of equations is an ordered pair that makes each equation true. That means that when you plug in the same x value to each equation, they will both equal the same y value.
3x + 4y = 5 The system has no solution 3x + 4y = 9 because 3x + 4y cannot equal both 5 and 9.
On a graph, this is the point where both lines meet.

Have students take a minute to discuss the answer with a partner, then have a discussion about possible answers. Make a table of values to show possible solutions and ask students what equation can be written from this scenario. [x + y = 9] Then, provide students with another bit of information: The farmer has twice as many hens as roosters. Have students give an equation that models this. [2x = y] Ask students to discuss with a partner, and then as a class, use the table of values to find the solution [6 hens and 3 roosters]. Use the Guiding Questions to lead a discussion about how we needed both equations to figure out how many of each type of chicken he had and how there was only one right answer; the one that worked for both equations.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Ask students: When a system has one solution, where will you see it on a graph? [the ordered pair at the point where the lines cross] The solution is both an x-value and a y-value and it works for both equations in the system. We can test the ordered pair to see if it is a solution by plugging in both the x-value and the y-value to BOTH equations to see if we get two true statements. Use the table in the Learn and Connect section to show students what this process looks like for an ordered pair that is a solution and an ordered pair that is not a solution. Then, show the example of the system below the table that has no solution. Ask students if they can think of a combination of x- and y-values that would work in this system. [No. There is no pair of x- and y-values that would make both true because the left sides are both 3x + 4y, but the right sides are different values. It’s not possible for 3x + 4y to equal both 5 and 9.]
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students work with a partner to complete problems 1-3 in the Apply section. They should work together to plug in each ordered pair to each equation until they find the one that works for a pair of equations. Next, have students continue to work with a partner to complete problems 4-8. Review the answers to problems 1-8 before moving on to ensure understanding.

Answer the question. 18. Explain why the following system has no solution.
Have students return to problem 3 in the Exercise section to graph the two equations listed on the same coordinate plane. Then, have them use this graph to help them find the correct solution.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 19, students will need to create two equations. Then, they will need to simplify these equations by dividing each by a common factor. Each equation can be simplified to the same equation, which means that they are actually the same equation. Thus there are infinite solutions.
problems 1-10, remind students to check that the ordered pair works in both equations. For problems 11-15, students will need to find the missing part of the ordered pair. Review the answers and discuss what strategies students used to solve. Next, have students complete problems 16-17 by filling in the x/y tables and finding the matching ordered pair to solve the system. Review the answers and have students complete problem 18, an error analysis.
ACTIVITY Let’s Table It: The purpose of this activity is for students to use reasoning to find the solution to a system and to practice checking their solutions for correctness. Create six cards, each with a blank x/y table and a unique equation. Use: y = 4x, y = -2x + 6, y = -x + 5, y = x − 3, y = - 21 x , and y = x + 3. Divide students into six groups and give each group a card. Instruct them to fill in the x/y table by plugging in x-values from -1 to 10 and writing their corresponding y-values. Then, each group will pair up with another group, and they will find the solution to the system they created by finding the ordered pair that matches. They will check their answer by plugging in the x- and y-values to their equations to check for a true statement. One set (y = x − 3 and y = x + 3) will not have a solution. Ask students to figure out why. [Because the lines have the same slope so they are parallel]

ACTIVITY Graph It: The purpose of this activity is to have students practice graphing and looking for the solution to a system on a graph. Give each pair of students a notecard with a system of equations on it. The systems should have one solution. Have the students work together to graph their system on a piece of paper, find the solution, and label it. Next, ask students to make a change to one of their equations so that the system will have no solution. Ask them to graph again to test their change. Next, ask them to make one more change so that the system has an infinite amount of solutions. Have them graph one more time to test their change. Conclude by holding a discussion about what makes systems have no solution or an infinite amount of solutions and what that looks like on a graph.
For problem 10, students will need to create two equations based on the scenario. Since each equation needs to be graphed, they will need to begin with y = and should be in slope-intercept form. Tell students that if a total of 20 cookies are sold, we can find the number of sandwich cookies (y) by subtracting the number of chocolate chip cookies (x) from 20. The equation they should write is y = 20 − x. Ask students: How can we rearrange this equation to be in proper slope-intercept form? [y = -x +20] What is the slope? [-1] What is the y-intercept?

What does x equal? What does y equal?
You can isolate a variable so that x or y is alone on one side of the equation. Then, you can see what x or y equals. Use inverse operations:
Solve for x
Solve for y
Step 1: Add or subtract an entire term from both sides so that x and y are on opposite sides of the equal sign.
6x − 2y = 6 + 2y + 2y
6x − 2y = 6 − 6x − 6x
Step 2: If your x or y is left with a coefficient, multiply or divide to isolate the variable.
6x 6 + 2y = 6 6
-2y 6 − 6x = -2 -2
Step 3: Simplify. Make sure to multiply or divide each term.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the equation and questions from the Learn and Connect section on the board: 6x − 2y = 6. What does x equal? What does y equal? Students may say, “We can’t figure it out without another equation.” Acknowledge that this is an excellent answer, and tell students that we can figure out what x and y are equal to by rearranging the equation. We can isolate a variable to find what it is equal to “in terms of” the other variable, meaning we would still need to know the value of the other variable to find the value of the isolated variable. Tell students that we can isolate a variable by using inverse operations just like we would in an algebraic equation with one variable. Begin by going through the steps to isolate the x-variable. Tell students that we can move the entire term -2y by adding 2y to both sides. Have a student tell you the resulting equivalent equation. [6x = 6 + 2y] Ask students what they think we should do next. [divide both sides by 6] Have students tell you the resulting equivalent equation. [x = (6 + 2y)/6] Tell students that the final step is to simplify and emphasize that just like with the distributive property, we need to make sure that all the terms are divided by 6. [x = 1 + 31 y] Say: Now we know what x is equal to. Ask: Why is this helpful even though we don’t know the actual value of x? [If we know the value of y, we can substitute it in to easily find the value of x.] Finally, explain that we could have chosen to isolate y, and have a student come to the board to go through the process again, solving for y.

Go through one column in the table in the Apply section together as a class, and have students go through the other column independently. Check in with students to be sure that they are subtracting the correct term and simplifying all the terms in the equation. When students are comfortable with the process, have them complete problems 1-20 in the Exercise section independently, then have them check their answers with a partner. Review the answers to the odd-numbered problems. Have students work with a partner on problems 21 and 22. Review the answers and strategies used as a class and then ask students why it may be helpful to rearrange each equation so that one variable is isolated given the context provided. [We can try out different lengths to see what the width would need to be; we can figure out how many loaves of bread we would be able to make given any number of cakes.]
ACTIVITY Science Application: The purpose of this activity is for students to see how isolating a variable is helpful in a real-life scenario. Write the formula for changing from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit on the board: F = 95 × C + 32. Tell students that this formula is helpful if you know the temperature in Celsius and you want to convert it to Fahrenheit, but it is less helpful if you want to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius. Ask them to work with a partner to rearrange the equation so that C is isolated to make it easier to change a temperature in Fahrenheit to Celsius. [C = 95 × (F - 32)]
COMMON ERRORS Students may use the wrong inverse operation when rearranging an equation. Students may forget to divide both terms when simplifying.

y Substitution - when one variable is solved for and substituted into the other equation. y Expressions - a combination of numbers, variables, and operations
Another way to solve systems of equations is with substitution. You can solve for either x or y by plugging in an expression instead of a number. Step 1: Isolate a variable. Check to make sure at least one equation has an isolated variable. If not, isolate a variable in one of the equations.

Step 2: Substitute. Now, you can substitute an expression into the other equation. When you simplify, you should get a number value for the other variable.

We can solve for the y-variable.
y = 2x + 3 4x + 4y = 24 We can substitute 2x + 3 for y to find x.
Step 3: Solve for the other variable. The value of x is substituted into either equation to find the value of y. The solution to the system is written as an ordered pair (x, y).

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Remind students that in the last lesson, we learned how to isolate a variable so that we know what one variable is equal to. In this lesson, we will use this idea and substitution to solve systems. Write the system from the Learn and Connect section on the board (y − 2x = 3; 4x + 4y = 24) and ask students if any of the variables are isolated. [No] Ask students which equation we can more easily manipulate so that one variable is isolated. [y − 2x = 3] Ask: Which variable should we isolate? [y] Ask a student to walk you through the steps of isolating a variable. [add 2x to both sides to get y = 2x + 3] Ask: What is y equal to? [2x + 3] Tell students that we can now replace the y in the second equation with this expression because it is equal to y. Ask a student to help you rewrite the second equation with the substitution for y. [4x + 4(2x + 3) = 24] Emphasize the importance of using parentheses around the quantity that y is equal to. Ask a student to walk you through the steps of simplifying (including using the distributive property) and solving for x. [x = 1] Finally, ask students what the last step is for solving systems. [Substitute again to find the value of the other variable, y = 5.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the system from the Learn and Connect section on the board. [2x − 4y = 10; 4x + 4y = 8] Set it up vertically so that the like terms are lined up, and ask students how to add these two equations together. [Add the like terms.] Have a student walk you through the process and discuss the resulting equation. [6x = 18. Since -4y and 4y are opposites, they cancel each other out, and now there’s only one variable left.] Tell students that now, we can solve for x. [x =3] Ask students how we can use this information to finish solving the system. [We can plug in 3 in the place of x in one of the equations to get y = 1.] Tell students that this process of solving systems is called elimination because one of the variables disappears when we add the two equations together. Tell them that we can add or subtract the equations, but in order to use this method, one pair of variables needs to be opposites so that they will cancel out. If we don’t have opposites, we can multiply one or both equations to make it so that the coefficients (the number in front of a variable) are opposites. Write the second example from the Learn and Connect section on the board. [3x + 6y = 6; 2x + 5y = 6] Tell students that the process is a bit like finding a common denominator in fractions. If we want to make the coefficients in front of the x the same, we can multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3 so that both will have a coefficient of 6. Remind students that we have to multiply the entire equation, so the resulting equations will be 6x + 12y = 12; 6x + 15y = 18. Ask students if adding these two equations together will make the x-variable disappear. [no] We need to subtract the two equations to eliminate the x-variable. Have students walk you through subtracting the like terms, solving for y, and using substitution to find x. Finally, remind students to write the solution as an ordered pair.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Read aloud the problem from the Learn and Connect section about adult and children’s tickets at the zoo. Ask students how many variables there are in this scenario. [two] Ask students how many equations we can write with the given information. [two] Assign the variable x to represent the number of adult tickets and the variable y to represent the number of children’s tickets. Ask students to help you write the two equations. Explain that we can add x and y to get the total number number of tickets, and since we know the total number of tickets sold was 100, we can set this equal to the sum of x and y. [x + y = 100] We also know the cost of each ticket. Ask students how to find the cost of all the adult tickets [Multiply 10, the cost of each adult ticket, by x, the number of adult tickets.] and how to find the cost of all the children’s tickets. [Multiply 5, the cost of each children’s ticket, by y, the number of children’s tickets.] Tell students that we can set the sum of these two expressions equal to 720, the total amount of money brought in by ticket sales. [10x + 5y = 720] Ask students how they would solve this system. [Answers vary: graphing, substitution, elimination] Have students walk you through solving, using any method. The substitution method is shown in the Learn and Connect section. Remind students to give their final answer with context from the problem.

A farmer with cows and chickens has 20 animals. The animals have 54 legs in total. This can be represented by the following system of equations
STRUGGLING LEARNERS
x + y = 20 2x + 4y = 54
Have students use different colored highlighters to mark off important information in the problems. Also provide them with a checklist for solving: y Define the variables y Create two different equations y Choose a method to solve (graphing, substitution, elimination) y Solve for one variable, then use substitution to solve for the second variable y Write the answer with context
A. Why is there a 2x in the second equation and only x in the first equation? The second equation has a 2x because we are counting legs, while the first equation has x because we are counting the number of chickens.
B. What do x and y represent? How do you know? x is the number of chickens, and y is the number of cows. I know because chickens have 2 legs, and cows have 4 legs, and x is multiplied by 2, and y is multiplied by 4.
C. How many of each type of animal does the farmer have?
13 chickens and 7 cows

PRE-LESSON WARM-UP
Write a system of equations: x + y = 45
Ask students to tell you what a system with one solution looks like on a graph and what must be true about each equation in the system. [Two lines lines that intersect; they must have different slopes.]
10x + 5y = 275 Solve by Graphing
Solve by Substitution
Solve by Elimination
x + y = 45 → y = -x + 45
x + y = 45 → y = -x + 45
x + y = 45 → 5(x + y = 45)
10x + 5y = 275 → y = -2x + 55
10x + 5y = 275
10x + 5y = 275

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Divide students into three groups. Read aloud the question in the Learn and Connect section about the different types of flowers that were potted. First, as a class, define the x-variable as the number of roses and the y-variable as the number of tulips. Then, have students work together in their groups to create two equations from the given information. Be sure that all groups have the same equations. [x + y = 45; 10x + 5y = 275] Next, assign each group a task: solve by graphing, solve by substitution, or solve by elimination. When students finish, have each group present their process to the class, explaining all the steps that are needed to be done in order to solve this way. Be sure the final answer is given with context in each case.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Remind students that angles are formed when two lines or rays meet at a vertex point. Tell students that today we are going to use what we know about how angles are related to each other to find missing pieces. Go through the chart in the Learn and Connect section outlining the angle relationships and use the examples shown to describe how to recognize each one. Ask students how some pairs of angles can fit more than one description. Discuss what complementary angles would look like if they were adjacent and what they would look like if they were not adjacent. Next, ask students to look at the figure below the chart and tell you what the relationship is between AEB and AEC. [They are adjacent; they form a straight line; they are supplementary; they add up to 180°] Go through the process of finding the measures of the missing angles as shown. Tell students that in this lesson, they will be writing equations using all the rules we covered. Explain that not all equations will be constructed the same. Ask: How would we set up an equation with vertical angles? [Set the value of the two angles equal to each other.] How would we set up an equation with complementary angles? [Add the value of the two angles together and set them equal to 90.]

Have students work independently on problems 1-4 in the Apply section, then review the answers and strategies used as a class. Next, work together as a class on problems 1, 5, and 9 in the Exercise section. Once students show a good understanding of each type, have them complete problems 2-4, 6-8, and 10-12, and review the answers when complete.
ACTIVITY Angle Mash Up: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice creating equations based on angle relationships and use them to find missing pieces. Have each student write an expression with no more than two terms (such as 4x or 3x + 5). Then, assign partners and give them a category: either complementary angles, supplementary angles, vertical angles, or adjacent angles. (If they are assigned adjacent angles, give them a total amount that their angles add up to.) The pair will need to work together to draw a picture of their angles, label it with their expressions, and create an equation that befits their angle relationship using these two expressions. Have students solve for x and then find the measure of each angle. Students can share their work when complete.
COMMON ERRORS Students may use the wrong angle relationship when setting up equations. Students may use the wrong inverse operation when solving equations.
ASSESS Exit Ticket: Angles A and B are complementary. Angle A has a measure of 3x − 3, and angle B has a measure of 2x + 8. Write an equation and solve for x to find the measure of each angle. Lighthouse MATH Level H | Teacher's Guide

Ask students to show parallel lines using their arms. Ask them to explain what parallel means. [The two lines will never touch.] Ask students to name the line that crosses through lines AB and CD. [line EF] Tell them that this line is called a transversal, a line that crosses through a set of lines and forms angles. Remind students that we named these angles in the warm-up activity. Next, have students open their book and refer to the chart in the Learn and Connect section. Go through each angle, pairing one at a time, and explaining their relationship. Have the students fill in the last column of each line, naming another example of each pairing, and have them mark and color-code them on the diagram at the top of the page. Tell students that in this lesson, we will practice recognizing these relationships, and we will use them to set up equations and solve for unknowns.

A. Jonathan wrote the equation 6x + 5 = 2x + 3 to solve for x in the diagram. Do you agree with him? Why or why not? No, the two angles are same side interior angles, so they add up to 180°. He should have written 6x + 5 + 2x + 3 = 180.
B. Solve for y. Explain how you found your answer. 8x + 8 = 180 (same side interior angles), so x = 21.5. Therefore, the angle labeled 2x + 3 is equal to 46°. Y = 46 because these angles are alternate interior angles.
CH AL L ENGE 15. Explain why same side interior angles add up to 180° using what you know about angle relationships. Use the diagram shown as a reference. Angle 6 and angle 7 are supplementary angles; therefore, they add up to 180°. Angles 7 and 3 are corresponding angles, therefore, they are equal. Since angle 3 is equal to angle 7, and angle 7 and angle 6 add to 180°, angle 3 and angle 6 (same side interior angles) must also add to 180°.

ACTIVITY Angle Chain: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice finding angle relationships. Divide students into groups. Each group gets a piece of paper with parallel lines crossed by a transversal drawn across the page. Each group also gets a set of cards with the names of the angle relationships. The first student to play will put a finger on an angle and then draw a card. The next student will need to put their finger on an angle that satisfies the relationship shown on the card. If done correctly, the first student only then removes their finger and the second student will draw a card next. The third student will put their finger on an angle that satisfies the relationship shown. The second person only will then remove their finger and the third student will draw a card for the next student and so on.
COMMON ERRORS Students may think that all angle pairings are equal. Students may think corresponding angles must be on opposite sides of the transversal.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Draw a triangle on the board and label the top angle a and the bottom two angles b and c. Then, extend the base out to one side to form a new exterior angle and label it d. See the diagram in the Learn and Connect section for reference. Ask students to tell you what rule we know about the angles inside a triangle. [They add up to 180°.] Write m a + m b + m c = 180° on the board. Then, ask what we know about angle c and angle d. [They form a straight line, so they add up to 180°.] Write m c + m d = 180° under the first equation. Ask students what they see in both equations. [m c and 180°] Help students use logic to derive a new rule. [Since both (m a + m b) and m d equal 180° when added to m c, we can say that m a + m b = m d.] Give students another way to understand where this idea comes from by asking them to find m d if m c is 50°. [130°] Next, ask students to find the combined measure of angles a and b. [130°] Tell students that since a triangle’s angles add up to 180° and since a straight line is also 180°, the measure of angle d and the combined measure of angles a and b will always be the same.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Draw a right triangle on the board. Say: This is a right triangle because it has a right angle in it. Have a student come and draw a right angle symbol in the spot where they think the right angle is. Ask: Do you see the two sides of the triangle that make up the right angle? Highlight each side with a different colored marker. Label one a and one b, and say: These are called the legs of the triangle. Ask: What do you notice about the third side of the triangle? [It does not form the right angle, it is opposite the right angle, it is the longest side in the triangle] Say: The side across from the right angle is called the hypotenuse. Label it c. Write the Pythagorean theorem on the board. Say: This rule called the Pythagorean theorem can help us find a missing side of a right triangle. The legs are a and b and the hypotenuse is c. Draw the example given in the Learn and Connect section on the board. Ask a student to help you fill in the equation for the Pythagorean theorem. Ask students if it matters which leg is a and which leg is b. [No. Since addition is commutative, it can be added in any order.] Ask students if it matters which side is c. [Yes, this must be the hypotenuse and not a leg of the triangle.] Ask a student to walk you through solving the equation. Remind students to follow the order of operations. After taking the square root, ask students if we want to list the answer c = -1 as a possibility. [No, because lengths of sides cannot be negative.] Tell students that in this chapter, we will only give the positive square root for an answer.

Next, work together to set up problems 1 and 5 in the Exercise section together as a class. Then, have students solve and complete problems 2-4 and 6-12 independently. Review the answers and strategies used as a class.
ACTIVITY Picture Proof: The purpose of this activity is for students to show the Pythagorean theorem using a picture. Have students draw a right triangle on graph paper. Tell them to use a ruler to draw one side with a length of three boxes. Tell them to turn their ruler 90° at one end of the line and draw another line from there that is four boxes long. Finally, have them connect the two open ends with a third line to close the triangle. While they do this, have them measure the length of the third side. Next, ask students to draw two squares, each time using one leg of the triangle as one side of the square. Ask students what the areas of the squares they drew are. [9 square units and 16 square units] Finally, have students use their ruler to draw a square anywhere on the page along the gridlines with side lengths equal to the third side of the triangle. If measured and lined up with the grid correctly, the sides should all be 5 units long. Ask them to find the area of this square. [25 square units] Ask them to relate this back to the Pythagorean theorem they just learned. [If you add up the area of the two leg squares, you get 25, the area of the hypotenuse’s square.]
COMMON ERRORS Students may always solve for the hypotenuse, even when a leg is missing. Students may use the length of the hypotenuse for a or b in the Pythagorean theorem.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
Have students look at the graph in the Learn and Connect section and locate the line segment between point A (4,5) and point B (8,8). Ask: Can we find the length of AB just by looking at the graph? [No, because it does not line up with any gridlines.] Tell students that this lesson is going to focus on finding the length, or distance, of a diagonal line on the coordinate plane. Tell them that we can draw in a right triangle with AB as the hypotenuse and we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find its length. First, have students find the length of the vertical distance by subtracting the y-values of the endpoints of the vertical line [8 − 5 = 3] and the horizontal distance by subtracting the x-values of the endpoints of the horizontal line. [8 − 4 = 4] Next, have a student volunteer to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse. [c = 5] Tell students that we can sum up what we did in one big formula called the distance formula: c = √(y2 − y1)2 + (x2 − x1)2. Explain that the two differences being squared under the square root are the legs of the triangle. We subtract here just like we subtracted earlier to find the vertical and horizontal distances. Ask: When evaluating, what is the first step in order to solve? [Subtract in each parentheses.] What is the second step? [Square each difference.] What is the third step? [Add the squares.] What is the last step? [Take the square root.] Emphasize the importance of following the order of operations, and remind students that the square root acts as a grouping symbol, so everything inside must be done first before the square root is taken.

Then, work together as a class to fill in the blanks for problem 1 in the Exercise section. Have students complete problem 2 on their own, then review the answer. Work as a class to set up the distance formula for problem 3, then ask students to solve on their own and work on problem 4. Review the answer and then have students work independently on problems 5-7. Review all the answers to ensure understanding.
ACTIVITY Coordination: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice using the distance formula. Have students choose a point anywhere on the coordinate plane. Tell them they can choose any point in any quadrant but to stay within -10 to 10 on each axis. Next, randomly assign them a partner. Have them work together to find the distance between their two points on the coordinate plane using a right triangle and/or the distance formula. Students will likely have to estimate the value of a square root. Remind them to use perfect squares that they know to help them with this. Afterward, discuss as a class what about the formula allowed us to have all positive answers even though many of the points had negative coordinates. [Squaring a negative number always results in a positive number.]
Ask students to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal in a square with a length of 1 and compare it to the length of each side of the square. Then, have them use their results to explain why we can find the length of a horizontal or vertical distance by counting the boxes, but not the length of a diagonal line. [We can find the length of a horizontal or vertical distance by counting the number of boxes it lines up with, but a diagonal line does not line up with boxes. The Pythagorean theorem proves that the length of a diagonal in a square is more than the length of each side of the square. Therefore, we cannot just count the boxes a diagonal line passes through to find its length.]
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 8, students will need to plot several points on the graph as described. They will then need to complete the distance formula to find the lengths described. Tell students to take it one piece at a time so that they do not get confused when drawing the lines on the graph.

Ask students to find a right angle in the classroom. Ask them how they knew it was a right angle. [e.g. the sides of the desk are square, the wall is perpendicular to the floor and not slanted] Next, ask them to identify the rays or sides that make up the right angle. Ask them what we can find (what is c?) if we use the Pythagorean theorem with the lengths of their sides as a and b. [The diagonal length of the desk (distance from one corner to the opposite corner), the diagonal length of a piece of paper from one corner to the opposite corner] Tell students that today, we are going to see how the Pythagorean theorem can be used practically in real-world situations.
Randall finds the difference: 70 yards − 50 yards = 20 yards. The orange trail is longer than the blue trail by 20 yards.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) As a class, read the problem in the Learn and Connect section about the map with the blue trail and the orange trail. Be sure to pause to talk about each part of the problem. Ask students: What does Randall want to know? [Which trail is longer and by how much] Why does Randall choose the Pythagorean theorem to help him answer the question? [The map is rectangular; therefore, it has right angles. The orange trail takes up two edges of the map, bending on the right angle.] Ask students what information we are given on the map [the lengths of two parts of the orange trail] and what information is missing [the length of the blue trail]. Point out to students that the blue trail goes from one end of the orange trail to the other. Ask them what part of the right triangle the blue trail is. [the hypotenuse] Next, ask a student to help set up the equation, leaving the missing piece blank. [302 + 402 = c2] Ask students to walk you through solving, reminding them to follow the order of operations. [c = 50] Ask students if solving answered the question that was asked. [No, we need to know the lengths of both trails to compare them.] Finish off solving by finding the length of the orange trail [70 yards] and the difference between the lengths of the two trails.

ACTIVITY Triangulation: The purpose of this activity is for students to use the Pythagorean theorem in a way that it would be used in the real world. Explain to students that sometimes we cannot measure a distance directly, but we can use a right triangle and the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown distance. Tell students that their task is to find the distance from the top right side of the classroom to the bottom left side of the classroom without measuring it directly. They will find and measure the legs of a right triangle with their unknown distance as the hypotenuse. Then, they will input these measurements into the Pythagorean theorem and solve to find the unknown distance. They will likely have to estimate the length using perfect squares that they know, or they can use a calculator for a more accurate measure.

Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the words congruent and similar on the board. Tell students that when a shape is exactly the same as another shape, we call those two shapes congruent. Draw two congruent shapes under this word on the board. Then under the word similar, draw two triangles with the same shapes but different sizes. Tell students that these triangles are called similar because their shape is the same, but they are different sizes. Similar figures will have different side lengths than each other, but they will be proportionate, and their angle measures will be the same. Explain that we can check if two figures are congruent or similar by looking at their corresponding sides and angles. Have students look at the chart in the Learn and Connect section. Explain that ABC and JKL might be positioned differently, but each side in triangle ABC matches up with a side in JKL, and each matching or corresponding side is the same length. Have students highlight the corresponding sides and angles with colored highlighters. Explain to students that when looking for corresponding sides and angles, always start by looking for two features that stand out, like a marked angle, a right angle, or a side that is obviously longest or shortest. Match each of those features to the same features in the other triangle, and use them as a guide to find which are the corresponding angles and sides. In this triangle, point A corresponds with J because A and J have the same angle measure. Point B corresponds with point K, and point C corresponds with point L. Continue by explaining the symbols and comparisons in the Congruent Figures box, and then move to the Similar Figures box. Ask: What do you notice about the sides and angles of these two figures? [The sides are not the same length, but the corresponding angles are equal.] Have students highlight the corresponding sides and angles. Next, have students set up a proportion, lining up the corresponding sides. Explain that we can use a proportion to prove that the figures are similar by

Model problems 1, 4, and 7 in the Exercise section for the class before having students work independently on the rest of the problems. Review the answers and strategies used.
ACTIVITY Figure Match up: The purpose of this activity is to reinforce students’ understanding of congruent and similar figures. Prepare sets of congruent and similar figures on index cards (with labeled angles and sides). Place one pair of each set face down on the board and hand out the other pair to students. One student comes up to the board and turns over a card. All students, including the one at the board, have 15 seconds to observe the card and determine if it is congruent or similar to theirs. If the student at the board has the similar figure, they must prove it mathematically by writing and solving a proportion using corresponding sides. If their figure is not similar, they turn the card back over as in a classic matching game. Continue in this fashion until all cards are claimed. For a competitive element, the class can be split into two teams, and the first team to have all teammates matches claimed is the winner.
COMMON ERRORS Students may match corresponding sides incorrectly. Students may set up inconsistent proportions by not lining up proportional sides.

Have students observe the graphs and discuss with a partner the Guiding Questions below. Reconvene to discuss as a class. Encourage students to use the words congruent and similar when describing the two figures. To conclude, say: In math, when we change a figure by moving it, flipping it, turning it, or resizing it, we call that a transformation. A transformation is a change. Circle the graph that shows a translation and say: Today, we will learn one kind of transformation: When a figure is moved from one place to another. Guiding Questions: 1. How did the figure change in size, direction, and location? [It moved, it was resized, it was flipped over, it was turned on its side.] 2. Are the two figures the same or different?

Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Have each student place their workbook at the left side of their desk and shift it to the right. Ask: Did the size and direction of the workbook change? [no] Explain that in geometry, this movement of shifting is called a translation. Say: A translation is a transformation that moves every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction. It slides an object from one position to another without rotating, resizing, or deforming it. Ask: What are the four possible straight line directions that a figure can be moved on a coordinate plane? [right, left, up, down] Say: Notice, we can’t move diagonally, so when translating a figure, we may need to move in more than one direction to get it to our desired location. Next, have students observe how the blue triangle was moved to become the purple triangle in the Learn and Connect section. Be sure to emphasize that each point/vertex of the figure must be moved the exact same distance in order to keep the transformed figure congruent to the original. Also be sure to explain how to say the name of the the purple figure (A’B’C’: “A prime, B prime, C prime”) and that these ‘prime’ marks are used to let us know that it is the new transformed figure.

[Yes, a translation does not change the size of a figure.] Have students use the distance formula to confirm.
ACTIVITY Translation Relay: The purpose of this activity is to practice translating figures on a coordinate plane. Give each student a piece of graph paper and a cutout of a shape that can be moved around on the graph to show translations. Prepare note cards with different translation tasks on each. The card should tell them where to place their cutout to start and how to translate it. For example: Place one vertex at (-3,4) and translate up 4 right 2. Give each student a card and then have them complete the translation task listed on their card. After a minute or two, have students switch cards with a partner and complete their new task. Then, have students check their two translations with their partner to see if they completed them correctly. Have the partners pass their cards to the next group so that everyone will have two new task cards to complete.
COMMON ERRORS Students may move vertices diagonally. Students may forget to move all vertices the same distances. Students may flip figures instead of sliding them.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
Start by asking students to explain what is seen when a person looks into a mirror. [The person sees themselves in reverse.] Say: In geometry, an image that has been reversed is called a reflection. Read and explain the definition for a reflection in the Learn and Connect section. Be sure to explain to students that it is important that when a figure is reflected, it is drawn the same distance away from the line of reflection as the original image is. Go through each graph in the Learn and Connect section. Ask students: How did the figure change when it was reflected over the y-axis? [It was flipped horizontally.] Next, ask students to contrast the x and y coordinates for the blue and purple images. Ask students to share what happens to the x and y coordinates when an image is reflected over the y-axis. [The x-coordinate flips/becomes its opposite, the y-coordinate stays the same.] Next, have students count the distance from point C to the y-axis in both figures to confirm that it is the same. Ask students to look at the middle graph to see how an image changes when it is reflected over the x-axis. [It is flipped vertically.] Ask students how the coordinates changed. [The y coordinate became its opposite.] Have students confirm that the original and new shape are the same distance from the x-axis. Finally, have students observe the graph on the right to see that any line can be used as a line of reflection. Have them confirm that both figures are equidistant from x = 1, the line of reflection.

ACTIVITY Reflect the Word: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice reflecting coordinates using abstract art. Hand out a sheet of graph paper to each student. Students should draw in the x and y axes. Give the students the following points to plot on their paper. (9, -9), (9, -8), (4, -9), (5, -8), (2, -8), (4, -2) and (0, 0), (1, -1), (1, 1), (2, -1), (1, -3), (-1, -4), (-3, -3). The result will be two separate images. Then tell students that the line of reflection for this art is y = x. When a figure is reflected over this line, the x and y coordinates flip. Have students flip each coordinate and plot it on the graph using a different color. The two images together should spell the word ‘wow’.
COMMON ERRORS Students may confuse the x- and y-axes. Students may move an image over a line of reflection but forget to flip its orientation. Students may not place the new image the proper distance from the line of reflection.

A rotation is a transformation where a figure is turned around a point called the center of rotation. When the center of rotation is the origin, the signs and placement of the x- and y-coordinates may be flipped. Rotations can be clockwise, which is the direction a clock’s hands move, or counterclockwise, which is the opposite direction. 5

Lesson 4
Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Write the following vocabulary words on the board: Rotation, center of rotation, origin, clockwise, and counterclockwise. Ask for student input as to what they may mean based on the introduction. Start by explaining that a rotation means a turn. Explain that in order for a rotation to happen, there must be a specific point that the object spins around, much like a pivot turn (one foot remains in place while the body turns). Tell students that when we rotate figures, we rotate them around the origin. This specific point is known as the center of rotation. Draw a graph on the board and ask a student to come up and mark the origin/center of rotation on the graph on the board in red. Next, lift a paper and ask: If i were to rotate this paper on the graph, what are the only two directions I can rotate it in? [left and right] Say: In geometry, we call rotating to the right clockwise and rotating to the left counterclockwise. Review the four quadrants and say that we name them in a counterclockwise direction from I-IV. Say: We will rotate shapes 90°, 180°, or 270° in either direction. Have students go through each rotation in the Learn and Connect section, being sure to point out what happens to the coordinates once the rotation is complete. It may be helpful for students to use a paper cutout the same size as the triangle in the figure to physically demonstrate each rotation. Ask students what happens when they rotate an image 360° in either direction. [It ends up in the same place it started.] Have students notice that a 90° clockwise rotation is the same as a 270° counterclockwise rotation and ask them to think why this may be true. [They are the same distance from the starting point/360°/0°.]

ACTIVITY Rotation Challenge: The purpose of this activity is to have students practice completing rotations while also reinforcing rotation vocabulary. Set up four stations around the room, each with a pile of rotation problems for students to complete. Put the solutions on the back of each card so students can selfcheck. Split the class into groups, putting one group at each station. Each student chooses a problem at their station to complete. Then, at the teacher’s command, students are told to make a rotation of 90°, 180°, 270°, and 360° clockwise or counterclockwise to the next station. Students rotate to the corresponding station and choose another problem to solve.
COMMON ERRORS Students may confuse clockwise and counterclockwise. Students may confuse the 90° and 270° coordinate shift rules.

Lighthouse Math
INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Start by asking students if they have ever gone to an eye doctor and had their eyes dilated. Have students share what occurred when their eyes were dilated. [Their pupils were made bigger so that the doctor could see inside their eyes]. Explain that just like a dilation of an eye makes the pupil bigger, a dilation of a figure is when a figure is changed in size. Emphasize that the shape and orientation are preserved, and only the size changes. Ask students: What are the two ways a figure can be changed in size? [bigger or smaller] Explain that the term in math for bigger is called an enlargement, while the term for smaller is called a reduction. Tell students that the important thing to remember about a dilation is that the figure is changed proportionally. Ask: How can I ensure that my dilated image will be in proportion? [by scaling the image with a scale factor] Explain that the scale factor is the number that is multiplied by the coordinates of each vertex to get the dilated image. Say: When making an enlargement, the scale factor must be above the number one. However, when making a reduction, the scale factor must be between zero and one. Work through the two problems in the Learn and Connect section on the board.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Use problems 1-3 in the Apply section to play a quick game of Showdown. Have students take out a blank sheet of paper.

Have students also plot point (8,12) as the starting point for the dilation they are about to do. Tell students to place one end of the rubber band at the origin (0,0) and hold it down with their finger. Next, have them place their pencil in the other end of the rubber band and pull their pencil until the knot of the rubber band is directly over vertex A and their pencil is on point (8,12). Then, tell them to trace the original triangle with the knot. Tell them that their pencil is drawing the new dilated triangle. As students reach each vertex with their knot, they should plot the new points with their pencil on their graph. Follow up by asking: Is the new image an enlargement or reduction? What do you think the scale factor for this dilation is?

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by telling students that today they will explore how multiple transformations can be combined. Tell them that as they saw in the warm-up activity, the order of transformations affects the final image. Explain that when determining a sequence of transformations, they should look closely at the orientation, direction, and size of the figure to identify what is preserved and what has changed. Have students tell you which transformation will change the orientation of a figure. [Rotation] Have them tell you which will change the direction of a figure. [Reflection] Have them tell you which will change the position of a figure. [Translation] And finally, have them tell you which will change the size of the figure. [Dilation] Ask students what is always preserved no matter the transformation. [The shape] Have students look at the two figures in the Learn and Connect section. Students can use a paper cutout of the black triangle to model the movements of each transformation. Explain to students that the black figure is the original figure, the blue is the figure after the first transformation, and the purple is the figure after the second transformation. Refer to the image on the left. Ask students how we can tell from the coordinates that the black triangle was translated two units up and three units to the right to become the blue triangle. [The y-values increase by two and the x-values increase by three.] Then have them tell you how we know the blue triangle was reflected over the y-axis. [The x-coordinates become their opposites, and the figure moves from quadrant I to quadrant II and changes its direction.] Refer to the image on the right. Have students describe what happened to the triangle after the first transformation. [It moved from quadrant II to quadrant IV, and now it’s upside down.] Ask how we know that this is not a reflection. [If it were reflected, it would have been a mirror image of itself.] Ask students how they can tell that the next transformation was a dilation. [The triangle got larger.] Finally, ask students to tell you the scale factor based on the coordinates. [2]

Have students create their own transformation path (without saying which transformations took place) and switch with a partner to solve.
CHALLENGE AND EXPLORE For problem 10, have students use a piece of tracing paper to help them map the new figure. Once the figures are plotted, have students observe the two figures and rule out any transformation that will not make sense based on preservation rules.
155
Have students work in pairs to identify which transformations were made to the shapes in the problems in the Apply section. Discuss the answers and students’ reasoning as a class. Next, complete problem 1 in the Exercise section as a class to ensure student comprehension. Then, have students complete problems 2-6 independently. Have students check their work with a partner and then review the answers as a class, addressing any problems that gave students difficulty. Next, complete problem 7 together as a class to model this type of problem. Then, have students complete problems 8 and 9 independently.
ACTIVITY Transformation Telephone: The purpose of this activity is to have students review combining transformations in a collaborative and engaging way. Divide students into groups of four and give each group four sheets of graph paper with a simple shape on each. The first student writes a two-step transformation sequence for the shape and passes it to the second student, who performs the transformations and draws the new image. The third student receives only the final image and must describe what sequence of transformations they think produced it. The fourth student then compares the original instructions, the drawing, and the guessed sequence for accuracy. If correct, student 4 becomes student 1, student 1 becomes student 2, and so on. The group picks a new problem from the sheets and repeats this process. If incorrect, student 4 must correct before picking a new problem.
COMMON ERRORS Students may confuse the x- and y-axes. Students may confuse a rotation and a reflection. Students may confuse clockwise and counterclockwise.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)

Begin by writing the four transformations on the board. Beneath each transformation, list the words “shape,” “size,” and “orientation.” Then, have students come up and circle what is preserved and cross out what changes for each transformation. Hold a discussion about which aspect is preserved in all transformations and why. [Shape. In a translation, reflection, and rotation, the figure is only moving to a different place on the graph. In a dilation, even though the figure changes size, the figure gets bigger or smaller in proportion to the original figure, so the shape will be preserved.] Next, have students come up to add the definition for each transformation on the board. Have students look at the chart in the Learn and Connect section. Going box by box, ask students to explain each transformation that occurred to the blue triangle and how the image and the coordinates show this. [Translation: to the right 6 and down 6; Reflection: over the y-axis; Rotation: 90° clockwise; Dilation: by a factor of 2]
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students pair up to complete the problems in the Apply section. Review the answers and strategies used as a class.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Segueing from the pre-lesson warm up about prisms and their volumes, introduce the cylinder, a prism with a circular base. Draw a cylinder on the board. Tell students that the same volume formula applies to the cylinder because it is a prism. Ask students what information we need to know to be able to find its volume. [The area of its base and its height] Ask students what dimension, besides height, needs to be filled into the picture. [the radius of the circular base] Ask students to help you write out the formula for the volume of a cylinder. [V = πr2h] Next, draw a radius on one of the bases and write 2 m next to it. Then, label the height of the cylinder as 10 m. Ask students to calculate the volume of the cylinder using 3.14 for pi. [V = 125.6 m3] Tell students that to follow the volume formula, you can multiply the radius by itself, then multiply by the height, and then multiply by 3.14. Ask students: What would we need to do if we were given the diameter of the circular base and not the radius? [Divide the diameter by 2 to find the radius before putting it in the formula for volume.]

and complete problem 5. Once students have a good understanding, have them work on problems 1-8 in the Exercise section independently, checking their answers with a partner. Review the answers as a class, then work together to set up the formulas for problems 9-12. Have students complete the problems on their own. Review the answers as a class, ensuring that students use the correct cubic unit.
ACTIVITY Height of the Impact: The purpose of this activity is for students to see that the volume of a cylinder is more affected by the radius of the base than by the height of the cylinder. Divide the class into groups of four. Each student in the group will need to calculate the volume of a different cylinder. Then, students will compare the volumes of each cylinder. Finally, hold a class discussion about what affects the volume of a cylinder more: changing its radius or its height. Use the following dimensions for the four cylinders: Cylinder One: radius 2, height 2 [V = 25.12] Cylinder Two: radius 6, height 2 [V = 226.08] Cylinder Three: radius 2, height 6 [V = 75.36] Cylinder Four: radius 2 height 18 [V = 226.08] Students should notice that Cylinder Two has a radius that is triple the radius of Cylinder One, but its volume is nine times as large as Cylinder One and that Cylinder Four has a height that is three times the height of Cylinder Three but its volume is only three times the volume of Cylinder Three. These results tell us that changing the radius has more effect on the volume than changing the height.
For problem 13, students will need to use the formula for the volume of a cylinder to find the missing height. Remind students that we can work backwards using inverse operations to solve for h. Also remind them that they are given a diameter, not a radius.
COMMON ERRORS Students may use the diameter instead of the radius. Students may forget to square the radius. Students may forget to multiply by the height. Students may not use a cubic unit in their final answer.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Using the images from the pre-lesson warm-up, hold a discussion with students about how a cylinder and a cone are the same and how they are different. [Both have a circular base, but the cone only has one, while the cylinder has two. They both have a height, but the cylinder’s height goes from one circular base to the other while the cone’s height goes from the circular base to a tip. The sides of a cone come in towards each other and meet at a point.] Emphasize that the cylinder and the cone are very similar because of their circular bases, and therefore, the formula for the volume of a cone is similar to the formula for the volume of a cylinder. Write the formula for the volume of a cylinder on the board (V = πr2h) and remind students that we discovered in the warm-up that the cylinder was three times bigger than the cone with the same dimensions. Ask them what we should add to the formula for the volume of a cone to show this. [Divide by 3, or multiply by 31 ] Write the formula for the volume of a cone on the board and have students practice finding the volume using a radius of 2 m and a height of 10 m. Tell students that to follow the volume formula, you can multiply the radius by itself, then multiply by the height, then multiply by 3.14, and then divide by 3. Remind students that the height is perpendicular to the base and not one of the slanted sides.

Tell students that a sphere is another 3D shape that is related to a circle because it has a radius/diameter but unlike a cylinder and a cone, which both have heights, the points on the edge of a sphere are all equidistant, or the same distance, from the center of the shape. Tell students that to find the volume of a sphere, we use the formula V = 43 πr3h. Point out to students that this formula differs from the formula for a cone because it has an improper fraction ( 43 instead of 31 ), and the radius is cubed rather than squared. Tell students that to follow the volume formula, you can multiply the radius by itself and then multiply it by itself again. Then, multiply by 3.14. Then, multiply by 4 and divide by 3. Have students practice using this formula to find the volume of a sphere with a radius of 2 meters.

Model It: The purpose of this activity is for students to compare the three 3D shapes related to circles and how their volumes are affected by their radius. Give students three slices of different colored modeling clay that are exactly the same size. Have them shape one slice into a sphere, one slice into a cylinder, and one slice into a cone. Ask them to compare the diameters of each shape. They will need to cut the sphere down the center in order measure its diameter. Hold a discussion about which diameter is the biggest and which is the smallest and why they think that is. [The sphere spreads out its volume evenly, so it’s more “efficient.” It can hold the most volume for the least diameter. The cone must have a wider diameter to hold the same amount of volume due to all of the missing space above its base where it comes to a point. The cylinder is in between the two extremes.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Tell students that as we discussed in the pre-lesson warm-up, it can be helpful to know the volume of a 3D shape in order to figure out how much material needs to be used to make it or to figure out how much a substance the item can hold. Tell students that when solving volume word problems, they will need to use key words from the chapter to figure out which formula to use. Ask students to brainstorm what those key words could be. [cylinder, cone, sphere, radius, diameter, height] Read each word problem from the Learn and Connect section aloud for students and ask them what shape the problem is about, which formula we need to use, and what is the radius and (if applicable) height. Have students work in pairs to fill in the formula for each problem and solve it. Then, go through the process together. Conclude by emphasizing that each answer must have the proper unit for volume (a cubed unit).
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students work with a partner to solve problems 1-3 in the Apply section. Review the answers as a class, asking students to name key words that helped them. Next, work together as a class to set up problems 1 and 2 in the Exercise section.

Shape Calculation Game: The purpose of this activity is to have students practice solving problems for all the different shapes from the chapter together with their peers. Divide students into pairs and give each a six-sided die. One student will roll the die three times. The first roll will tell the student the shape, the second roll will tell them the radius, and the third roll will tell them the height (if applicable). Rolling 1 or 2 on the first roll means cylinder, 3 or 4 means cone, and 5 or 6 means sphere. The number rolled on the second roll is the length of the radius. The number rolled on the third roll is the height. Students will not roll a third time if they roll 5 or 6 on the first roll. The second student will write down the formula needed to calculate the volume of the shape, sketch a picture of the shape, and fill in the radius and height. Then, the students will calculate the volume of the shape together. When they finish, they will switch rolls.
COMMON ERRORS Students may confuse the formulas for the volume of a cylinder, cone, and sphere. Students may use a diameter instead of a radius. Students may forget to multiply by the height.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
Have the students work in groups to create a poster displaying the three shapes and their volume formulas that were studied in this chapter. Students should draw a cylinder, a cone, and a sphere, and after writing their formulas next to them, they should embellish their drawings to make them look like a real-life cylinder, cone, and sphere. Next, they should work together to think of a real-world problem that could apply to each shape. They should write their problems under each shape and then give their poster to another group to solve. When all the groups finish, they should get their original posters back, check the work done by the other group, and present their posters to class.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students work with a partner to solve problems 1-6 in the Apply section, then review the answers as a class and address any questions that came up along the way. Next, have students work independently on problems 1-12 in the Exercise section and go over the answers and strategies used to ensure understanding. Finally, have students work with a partner on problems 13-18, where students analyze the three shapes they have studied, each with the same sized radius, to see which has the largest volume when their other dimensions are held constant. They will see that the cylinder has the largest volume, then the sphere, and then the cone. Have a class discussion as to why this may be. Lighthouse MATH Level H | Teacher's Guide

Problems 13-18 in the Exercise section can be compared to the Activity done in Chapter 9-3 (Model It). Discuss with students how, when the radius and height were held constant in problems 13-15, the cylinder held the most volume, then the sphere, then the cone. But in Model It, the volume was held constant, and we saw that the cone had the largest diameter, the cylinder was in the middle, and the sphere had the smallest diameter. Discuss why this is, how diameter (or radius) is related to the volume of each shape, and how this affects each formula.
171
Shape Calculation Game Take Two: For extra practice, have students do the Shape Calculation Game from Chapter 9-4. This activity can be modified for students who are ready for a challenge by having them roll more than once to create a compound shape. Then, they should sketch the shape they have created and find its volume. Students can play around with their compound shape to make it reflect something in the real world. For example, if a sphere and a cylinder are rolled, they can make them look like a ball balancing on an upturned bucket.
COMMON ERRORS Students may square the radius instead of cubing it when finding the volume of a sphere. Students may forget to divide by three when finding the volume of a cone. Students may not use a cubic unit in their answer.

A scatter plot is a graph that shows the relationship between two sets of data. It shows one dot for each piece of data. When you look at a scatter plot, you can see the association. This is the pattern you see (or don’t see) between two sets of numbers. Positive Association As x increases, y increases.

[To see how the two variables are connected and to help us make predications or prepare for the future. For example, tracking the number of pages read and the time spent reading can tell us the reading speed. Finding the number of days of rainfall and the number of inches of water collected can tell us the average amount of rainfall over time, etc.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin the lesson by drawing a simple table with x- and y-values on the board. Review with students that when plotting points on a graph, the x-value represents the input, and the y-value represents the output. Explain that when we want to represent a scenario visually and track how the variables change together, we can use a scatter plot. Explain that a scatterplot is a visualization of the relationship between two numerical sets of data. Have students look at the three different scatter plots in the Learn and Connect section. Explain that each one shows a different relationship between the x-coordinate (number of weeks) and the y-coordinate (test scores). Ordered pairs were collected and then plotted as dots on a graph. Ask students what they notice about the collection of dots on each graph. [The dots on the graph on the left are grouped together forming an upward slope, the dots on the graph in the middle are grouped together forming a downward slope, and the dots on the graph on the right are not grouped together but are all over the place.] Tell students that sometimes on a scatter plot, a pattern, or association, can begin to appear as more data is added. Review the three types of associations, discussing what each means in their context: positive (as the weeks go on, the test scores increase), negative (as the weeks go on, the test scores decrease), and no association (no clear connection between the number of weeks and the test scores). For positive and negative associations, prompt students to connect the patterns they see to positive and negative slopes, reinforcing how scatter plots build on prior graphing knowledge.

Play a quick game of Showdown using the problems in the Apply section. Have students observe the scatter plot, then write which association it is on a piece of paper. When “3,2,1, showdown” is called, students raise their answer. Scan the room to see which students may need clarification. Work on problem 1 in the Exercise section together. Next, have students work in pairs to complete problems 2-4. Then pull the class back together to review the answers and strategies used.
ACTIVITY Build the Scatter Plot: The purpose of this activity is for students to create a scatter plot and determine its association in a hands-on way. Prepare sets of index cards with one ordered pair on each card. Divide the class into groups. Give each group graph paper and a set of index cards. Have students work together to plot all the points. Then, have students label their graph with the type of association: positive, negative, or no association. Next, ask students to think of a scenario that depicts their scatter plot. Have them label the x- and y-axes and give their graph a title. Finally, have groups share their scatter plot and scenario with the class.
COMMON ERRORS Students may confuse no association and negative association. Students may confuse the input and output when plotting data on a graph.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect)
© Lighthouse Curriculum. Copying strictly prohibited.
Have students observe the graph in the Learn and Connect section. Explain that the graph shows the amount of money that Monty has in his bank account over several months, during which time he is doing renovations on his backyard. Ask students: What is happening to the amount of money he has over time, and why do you think that is? [It is decreasing because he is spending it on his renovation project.] Tell students that we can use this data to predict how much money Monty will have left after nine months. We can show it visually by creating a line of best fit. Explain that a line of best fit is a straight line that we can draw through the center of the data points on graphs with a positive or negative association. Say: Use a ruler to draw a line of best fit, making sure that the amount of points above and below the line are about the same. The line does not have to pass through all the points, but it needs to pass through the middle of the data. Next, tell students that we can write an equation of the line of best fit in slope-intercept form. Have students use the points (3,14) and (4,12) to find the slope of this line. Tell students that to find the slope, they can use any two points on the line that are easiest to read, including the y-intercept. Ask: What does a slope represent? [how much the y-value changes when x is increased by one] Ask: What does the slope -2 tell us? [Monty spends $2,000 a month.] Next, have students find the y-intercept. Ask: What does the y-intercept represent on a graph? [the starting value] What does the y-intercept represent in this problem? [How much money Monty started out with] Tell students that we can input any number of weeks in the place of x to predict the amount of money (y) that Monty will have at that time. Ask students to find how much money Monty might have after 9 months. [$2,000] Be sure to explain that Lighthouse MATH Level H | Teacher's Guide

For problem 6, hold a discussion about what happens when prices go up and what happens when prices go down. Do consumers buy more or less? Then have students apply this information to the problem to come to the conclusion that the more expensive the lemonade is, the less cups will be sold.
Negative. As the price would go up, people would buy less because they would not want to spend more. Since this is a negative association, it would have a negative slope.

a prediction is not an answer for sure. It is just an educated guess, so we write our answer as “about $2,000.”
Have students complete the problem in the Apply section independently, and discuss the answer as a class. Next, have students work independently on problems 1-3 in the Exercise section. Review the answers as a class to ensure understanding. For problems 4 and 5, have students work in pairs and review the answers and strategies used to solve.
ACTIVITY Beat the Clock: The purpose of this activity is for students to practice drawing lines of best fit. Give each student a card with a scatterplot with a positive or negative association on it. Have students place the end of their ruler where they think the y-intercept should be. Then, have them adjust their ruler so that it goes through the center of the data. They should count how many points fall above the top edge of the ruler. Then keeping the top edge of the ruler where it is, they can flip the ruler upside down to count the number of points that fall below this edge. If the amount of points are about the same, and the line seems to go through the center of the data, instruct students to draw in their line of best fit. Next, have them find the equation of their line using the y-intercept and the slope formula. They should use two points that they can find on their line of best fit to find the slope. Students should trade their card with a partner to check their work.
COMMON ERRORS Students may believe that the line of best fit should go through all the data points. Students may think that the line of best fit should go through the first and last data points on the scatter plot.

Read the opening paragraph of the Learn and Connect section and have students observe the table. Ask: What variables are being looked at in this scenario? [whether students are right-handed or left-handed and their choices of writing utensils] Say: We can create a table that will make it easier for us to understand and interpret this data. The colorful table below the gray table does that. It is called a two-way frequency table. Explain that this table is used to show how often (the frequency) something occurs when we have more than one category for each variable. Go through the categories and where they are placed in the table. Then, explain to students that each square in the center of the table is the intersection of two variables and shows one possible combination, for example, the combination of a student who is a righty and chooses a pen. Then, show students how the end of each row and column shows the total number for the category in that row and column and that the total number of students surveyed is written in the right column and bottom row (the intersection of all the totals). Have students confirm that the totals in each row and column and the grand total of students surveyed match up.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Tell the class that today, we will use percentages to find out if there is an association between the variables in a table. Read the opening paragraph of the Learn and Connect section and have students observe the two-way table. Read the two questions that are being posed. Work through how to find these percentages, being sure to review the formula for finding a percentage (part/whole x 100). Explain that the total for the first percentage comes from the bottom of the first column because we are looking for the percent of all people living in an apartment who bus. Similarly, the total for the second percentage comes from the bottom of the second column because we are looking for the percent of all people living in a house who bus. Ask students to explain when we would use the totals at the end of each row. [If we were looking for the percent of people who bus who live in an apartment or a house] Finally, explain that we can compare the percentages we found to see if there is an association between the variables. Since these percentages are not close together, we can reasonably conclude that there is an association between whether someone takes the bus and whether they live in a house or an apartment. Ask students what conclusion we can draw from this data. [People who live in an apartment are more likely to take the bus.] Tell students that if the percentages were close together, we would not be able to reasonably drawn conclusions like this. Work as a class to find the percentage of people who live in an apartment and take a bus and the percentage of people who live in an apartment and take a car. Have students draw a conclusion based on these percentages. [60%; 40%; People who live in an apartment are more likely to take the bus than a car.]

ACTIVITY Roll and Tally: Divide students into pairs and give each two dice and a sheet of paper. Have students draw a 7×7 table. They should designate and label the top row for player A with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, and do the same for the leftmost column for player B. Each player takes one die and starts to roll. Students should record the results of each roll in a list outside of the grid. For example, if player A rolls a 3, and player B rolls a 5, they will record 3,5. Repeat the process of roll and record until the students hit 50 rolls. Then, have students put their data into their two-way table by marking off the number of times each roll was rolled. For example, if 6,6 appeared on their list a total of five times, write a 5 in the bottom right cell of the table. Then, have students work together to answer the following questions: 1) What percentage of times did Player A roll a 3? 2) Of all the times Player B rolled a 5, what percentage of those rolls matched with Player A rolling a 2? 3) Which roll combination happened most often and what percentage of the total rolls does that represent?
COMMON ERRORS Students may use the wrong totals when finding percentages.

Guiding Questions: 1. On a scatter plot, what are the three types of associations we may see? [positive, negative, no association] 2. Why is it helpful to look for associations between variables? [So we can make predictions about the data] 3. When there is a positive association, how do the data points change as you move from right to left on the graph? [They get higher.] 4. When there is a negative association, how do the data points change as you move from right to left on the graph? [They get lower.] 5. What does no association tell us about the two variables on a graph? [There is no connection between them; neither one influences the other.] 6. How can I use the line of best fit to help make predictions? [Use the slope and y-intercept to make an equation for the line. Then, input a variable for x to get a possible outcome.] 7. Give an example of categories you would like to observe on a two-way table. [Answers will vary.] 8. How can we use the frequencies in a two-way table to predict if there is an association between the variables? [We can calculate percentages and compare them. If the percentages are close, there is no association. If they differ greatly, there is an association.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Review the three associations on the chart in the Learn and Connect section with the class. For each graph, ask students to identify the two variables and describe how they are related within that context. [As the hours of studying increase, test scores increase; as the hours of cleaning increase, the number of germs decreases. There is no relation between the number of pets someone has and their income.] Ask students how we can use the line of best fit. [Find the equation of the line using the slope and y-intercept, and plug in an x-value to make a prediction.] Ask students how to create a line of best fit. [Use a ruler to draw a line that follows the trend of the data with the same number of data points above and below the line.] Ask: Why can no line of best fit be drawn for the graph with no association? [because there is no trend] Move to the twoway table, and read the sentence on the left. Have students observe the table, and ask: What are the categories that are being observed? [number of students who come to school on time and not on time, number of students who eat breakfast and do not eat breakfast] Ask: What does each cell of the table tell? [The number of students who satisfy a specific combination of variables] What does the total represent? [The total number of students for each column and row. The grand total is the total number of students being observed altogether.] Finally, ask students to guide you to find out the percentage of students who eat breakfast and come on time to school.

For problem 4, students will need to look for and compare the percentage of students who sleep more than seven hours and feel rested and the percentage of students who sleep less than seven hours and feel rested. Since these percentages differ greatly, there is an association between the amount of sleep students get and whether or not they feel well-rested.

Have students work in partners to complete problems 1 and 2 in the Apply section. Review the answers and strategies used as a class, asking students to explain why the association is true. For example, “When the temperature rises, people tend to shut off their heat. Therefore, heat is not being used as much, so the bill for heat will go down.” Have students complete problems 1-3 in the Exercise section independently, checking with a partner. Discuss the answers and strategies used as a class when complete.
ACTIVITY Problem Round Up: The purpose of this activity is to have students create a two-way table of their own. Divide students into groups and have them select two variables with at least two variations to collect data on, for example, whether or not a student wears glasses and the number of siblings a student has. They should collect data from students in the class and then create a two-way table with the results. They should calculate the percentages for each category and decide if there is an association between their two variables. When complete, have groups present their findings to the class and discuss the significance of the results.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the table in the Learn and Connect section to review the concepts from this chapter. First, discuss how taking the square root is the inverse of squaring and how we can use perfect squares we know to find square roots. Ask students what kind of number we simplify to when taking the square root of a perfect square [integer/whole number] and what we get when taking the square root of a non-perfect square [decimal (usually an irrational number)]. Next, repeat this process with the box on cube roots. Then move on to converting fractions to decimals using long division. Go over the algebraic process for converting repeating decimals to fractions, and ask students if they recall any of the patterns they found when doing this process [Fractions with a denominator of nine will always be a repeating decimal with the numerator of the fraction repeating.]. Finally, categorize all these numbers using the Types of Numbers chart. Be sure to go over the differences between whole numbers and integers and rational numbers and irrational numbers.
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Complete the chart in the Apply section together, being sure to address any misconceptions along the way.

[Separate and sort the coefficients and the powers of 10, multiply each set, and adjust so that it is written in proper scientific notation.] Next, rewrite the same example but as a division problem instead. Ask students how they will solve this differently. [Divide the coefficients 4 and 6 to get 0.67, subtract the exponents on the powers of 10 to get 10-1, and rewrite in proper scientific notation, 6.7 × 10-2.] Finally, write the example addition problem from the Learn and Connect section on the board. Ask students what the first step is to help them simplify this expression. [Change one of the numbers so that they have the same power of 10.] Remind students that it is helpful to change the number with the smaller power to match the number with the larger power.

39. Why is it important to write numbers with the same exponent when adding or subtracting in scientific notation? It makes sure the place values line up correctly and that the final numbers are accurate.
Scientific notation helps shorten very large or small numbers and makes calculations easier. For example, scientists use 3.0 × 108 meters per second to represent the speed of light instead of writing 300,000,000.

APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Have students work independently to solve problems 1-13 in the Apply section, then have them check and discuss their answers with a partner. Review the answers as a class and address any questions or problems that students found challenging. Have students work independently on problems 1-37 in the Exercise section, checking with a partner as they go. Conclude with a full-class review, selecting a few representative problems from each section to work through on the board, and reinforce key concepts.
ACTIVITY Solving Group Showdown: The goal of this activity is for students to practice and apply key concepts from the unit by solving exponent and scientific notation problems collaboratively. Begin by dividing the class into five groups and giving each group a whiteboard and a dry-erase marker. Write one problem on the board and have groups work together to solve it on their whiteboards. When a group finishes, they hold up their board to display their answer. The first group with the correct answer earns five points, the second group earns four points, the third group earns three points, and so on. After each round, reveal the correct answer and briefly explain which rule applies (for example, multiplying exponents, dividing powers, or performing operations in scientific notation). Continue for several rounds, using a mix of problem types. The group with the most points at the end wins.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the scenario described in the table in the Learn and Connect section to review with students how to find the slope and y-intercept (the defining characteristics of a linear function) using word form, a table, a graph, and an equation. Remind students that the slope represents the rate of the function, and it tells us about the steepness of the line on the graph of the function. Remind them as well that the y-intercept of the function is the starting point of the function, or the y-value when x = 0. It is where the line crosses the y-axis. When talking about slope from a graph, we use the terms rise and run. Tell students that sometimes a rise can be a drop, and we use this term to talk about vertical change, while we use the term run to talk about horizontal change. Finally, remind students that in order to be a function, each input (x-value) must have exactly one output (y-value), and to be a linear function, the graph must be a straight line (the rate of change stays the same always).
APPLY AND DEVELOP SKILLS (Practice) Work together as a class to find the slope of all the linear functions in the Apply section. Then have students work independently on all the problems in the Exercise section. Review the problems together as a class to ensure understanding, and correct any misconceptions.

What is a proportional relationship? When two quantities increase or decrease consistently, they are in a proportional relationship. The ratio of y to x, the unit rate, is always the same. When graphed, the line goes through the origin (0,0). Solving Proportions: a c = b d
a×d=c×b

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by reminding students about what a proportional relationship is using the opening text from the Learn and Connect section. Then, go through the example, which uses a proportion to find a missing quantity. Next, have a student define unit rate [the rate per one unit] and use the table to review how to find a unit rate in different ways. Explain that this review focuses on finding the unit rate from equations, tables, and graphs. Start with the equation example, y = 3x. Ask students what the 3 could represent and review that the coefficient in front of x (the k in y = kx) is the unit rate. Prompt students to explain that this shows how y changes for each unit of x. Next, review the table with Miles (y) and Hours (x). Have students recall how to find the rate by dividing y by x in any column. Confirm that the ratio stays constant across all pairs, showing a proportional relationship. Then, review the graph of “Cost of a Venue Rental.” Ask students how to find the unit rate from the graph and guide them to identify it as the slope. Walk through the example given, being sure that students divide the change in y by the change in x. Emphasize that proportional graphs always form a straight line through the origin. Conclude by connecting all three methods. Review that the unit rate, slope, and constant of proportionality all represent the same value in different forms.

To solve problem 10, first have students define a linear equation and a proportional relationship. Then, discuss which parts overlap and which do not. Have students provide examples of linear equations that are proportional relationships and linear equations that are not proporational relationships.
10. Why is every proportional relationship also a linear equation, but not every linear equation represents a proportional relationship? Proportional relationships are always linear because they are straight lines. However, a linear equation does not have to pass through the origin, while the graph of a proportional relationship does.

Have students work in pairs to complete problems 1-6 in the Apply section. Review as a class to reinforce understanding of how to find the unit rate. Then, have students work in groups to solve problems 1-9 in the Exercise section. Review as a class and go over any problems students found challenging.
ACTIVITY Unit Rate Stations: Students will review how to find and interpret unit rates by working with equations, tables, and graphs in a hands-on, group-based activity. Set up three stations around the classroom, each focused on one representation of proportional relationships. At the equation station, provide examples such as y = 2x or y = 0.5x, and have students identify the unit rate and give an example of what it represents in context. At the table station, give students tables showing pairs of values, such as distance and time or cost and quantity, and have them find the unit rate by dividing y by x in each row to confirm the ratio remains constant. At the graph station, display proportional graphs and have students determine the unit rate by finding the slope between two points on the line. Divide students into small groups and have them rotate through each station every few minutes. After all groups rotate through the stations, review as a class and discuss how the unit rate connects across all three forms, emphasizing that the unit rate, slope, and constant of proportionality all represent the same relationship in different ways.
COMMON ERRORS Students may divide x by y when finding a unit rate. Students may think that graphs for proportional relationships don’t have to go through (0,0).

y Students will understand and solve systems of linear equations by analyzing their solutions as one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. They will apply methods such as graphing, substitution, and elimination to find solutions and interpret points of intersection. Additionally, students will use these techniques to model and solve real-world problems involving systems of linear equations.

[It means the two lines intersect at exactly one point, and there is a single pair of values that satisfies both equations.] 2. What does it mean when a system has infinite solutions? [It means the two lines are the same line, and every point on the line satisfies both equations.] 3. How can you tell when a system has no solutions? [The equations form parallel lines with the same slope but different intercepts, so they never intersect.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Begin by reading aloud the scenario in the Learn and Connect section and asking students to help you create two equations from the given information. [x + y = 60 and 2x + 6y = 528]. As you create the equations, have students explain their reasoning. Emphasize that the first equation represents the number of items sold, while the second equation represents the total amount of money made. Ask students: What are the steps for solving this system using a graph? [Put each equation in slope-intercept form, graph both, and look for the coordinates at the point of intersection.] Ask students what the point of intersection means in the context of the problem. [They sold 28 sandwiches and 32 bottles of soda.] Next, ask students for the first step for solving the system using substitution. [Isolate one of the variables in one equation.] Ask them which equation seems easier to do this for. [The first one] Have students work with a partner to solve the system using substitution, and then have one pair put their work on the board for the class to look over. Remind students that we are solving for both x and y. Point out that the solution when solving with substitution matches the coordinates we found when graphing. Finally, have students tell you the first step to solve the system using elimination. [Multiply the first equation by six so the coefficients in front of the ys match.] Ask students whether we will need to add or subtract these equations to eliminate a variable. [Subtract] Ask: Which variable will be eliminated, and which will we solve for? [y will be eliminated, and we will solve for x.] Ask: How will we solve for y afterward? [By substituting the solution for x in either equation] Have students work with a partner to solve. Emphasize that all three approaches lead to the same solution, and ask the class which method felt most efficient and why.

ACTIVITY Systems of Equations Shuffle: Students will practice solving different types of systems using multiple methods. Place students in groups and give each group ten notecards. Each group creates ten different systems of equations and writes each system on the front of a card. Once all groups have finished, have them rotate their entire set of cards to another group and receive a new set from a different group. Students then solve each system using one of three methods and show all steps on the back of the card. After solving, each group selects one example solved by graphing, one by elimination, and one by substitution to share with the class, explaining why the chosen method worked well for that particular system.

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the chart in the Learn and Connect section to review the different angle relationships. Remind students that some angles are related because they are equal, and other angles are related because they add up to 90° (complementary angles) or 180° (supplementary angles, same side interior or exterior angles in parallel lines, interior angles in a triangle). Some angles, such as adjacent angles, are just related by their position to each other, not by their angle measures. Finally, review the Pythagorean theorem with students and how to use to it to solve for a missing side in a triangle.

Real Angles Challenge: The purpose of this activity is to have students apply what they have learned to the real world. Students will look around the classroom and outside the window for angle relationships in real life. Provide them with a table of the different angle relationships and challenge them to find one of each. Have them sketch what they saw and say if the angles are equal. If not, they should describe how they are related (e.g., add up to 180°).

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Review the chart in the Learn and Connect section with students. As you go through it, remind students that the figures are changing in a predictable way based on set rules. Ask students to notice what stays the same and what changes in each example. For translations, remind students that the figure slides or shifts its position without flipping or turning. Have students figure out the directions for the translation done in the top left box of the chart, noting how point A (-4, 4) becomes A’ (2, -2). [The x-value increased by 6, and the y-value decreased by 6, so it was a translation right 6, down 6.] For reflections, point out that reflecting across the y-axis changes the sign of the x-coordinate, and reflecting across the x-axis changes the sign of the y-coordinate. Remind students that any line can be a line of reflection and that the new figure should be the same distance away from this line as the old figure. For rotations, review the rules for coordinate changes for each rotation. A 90° clockwise turn: (x,y) → (y,-x); A 90° counterclockwise turn: (x,y) → (-y,x); a 180° turn (x,y) → (-x, -y). Have students figure out which rotation was done in the bottom left box of the chart. [90° clockwise] Remind students that dilations scale a figure so that they become larger or smaller proportionally. Ask students to figure out how the figure in the bottom right box was dilated. [by a factor of 2] Ask: What happens to a figure when each coordinate is multiplied by a scale factor that is a fraction? [It would make the figure smaller.] Close by highlighting that translations shift, reflections flip, rotations turn, and dilations resize, all while maintaining the original shape of the figure. Recognizing these patterns helps students predict and check their transformations accurately.

ACTIVITY Transformation Relay: Students will practice transforming figures on the coordinate plane while working collaboratively. Divide the class into groups and prepare two sets of notecards, one set with the coordinates of various shapes and another set with single-step and two-step transformations. One member from each group draws one card from the coordinates stack and one from the transformations stack. Students will work together to find the new coordinates and draw the transformed figure. The first group to solve correctly earns four points, the second earns three, the third earns two, and the last earns one. Continue rounds until the target number of points is reached, rotating through group members each time.
COMMON ERRORS Students may confuse the x- and y-axes. Students may reflect an image but forget to flip its orientation. Students may confuse clockwise and counterclockwise. Students may forget to keep the image in proportion with the preimage. Students may not count the proper distance for both sides of the line of reflection.

Then lead a brief discussion about how volume is determined for each shape, emphasizing how the radius, height, or diameter affects the final volume. Guiding Questions 1. How would changing the radius affect the volume of each shape? Which shape’s volume would change the most? [Increasing the radius increases the volume more than increasing the height by that same amount. The sphere’s volume changes the most.] 2. How are the volume formulas for cylinders, cones, and spheres the same, and how are they different? [They all use the radius of the shape, but a sphere’s radius is cubed. A cylinder and a cone have a height that is multiplied, but a sphere does not.]

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the chart in the Learn and Connect section to review the names of the shapes that were studied and their volume formulas. Ask: What do r and h represent? [Radius and height] Ask: How are the formulas for the cylinder and cone the same? How are they different? [They both use r2h, but for the cone, you divide by 3.] How is the formula for the sphere different? [It uses r3, and it is multiplied by 43 .] Have students find the volume of a cylinder and a cone, each with a radius of 2 inches and a height of 5 inches. [63.8 in3; 20.9 in3] Then, have them find the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 4 inches. [33.5 in3] When modeling a calculation, ask, “After plugging the radius and height into the equation, what operation comes first?” [Squaring or cubing the radius] Remind students that when they are given the diameter, they need to remember to divide it by 2 to find the radius before squaring or cubing it.

Have students work with a partner to solve problems 13-15. Afterwards, discuss as a class that we can use these examples to compare the volumes of cylinders, cones, and spheres because they have the same radius and height. After completing problems 16-18, ask students how they can use the formulas and the pictures of the shapes to come to the same conclusions.

Work through problems 1 and 2 in the Apply section as a class to review the steps for solving volume problems. Have students work independently on problems 3-6. Review the answers as a class, walking through any problems students found challenging. Then have students work with a partner on problems 1-12 in the Exercise section. Review the answers as a class to ensure understanding.
ACTIVITY Roll for Volume: Students will work in pairs to practice calculating volume. Give each pair three notecards and two dice. Have students draw one shape on each of the notecards (cylinder, cone, and sphere), turn them upside down, and shuffle them. Students draw a card to determine the shape and roll the dice to generate dimensions. For cylinders and cones, one die represents the radius and the other represents the height. For spheres, add the numbers rolled to determine the radius. Students should solve at least two volume problems for each shape. Review as a class and invite pairs to share their results.
COMMON ERRORS Students may forget to square or cube the radius. Students may forget to multiply by 3.14 or the height. Students may forget to divide by 3 or multiply by 43 .

INTRODUCE THE LESSON (Learn and Connect) Use the chart in the Learn and Connect section to review what positive, negative, and no association look like. Highlight how the trend of the points helps determine the type of relationship. As students observe the examples, ask: “Do the points move upward, downward, or show no clear pattern as you move from left to right on the graph?” and “What does the line of best fit help you notice about how the variables change together?” Emphasize that the line of best fit is not an exact match to the data but shows the overall pattern. Discuss how the slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit help us understand the trend of the data. Ask: If this line continued, what prediction could you make? Guide students to recognize that graphs with points that are further from the line of best fit show a weaker association, while closely clustered points suggest a stronger one. Next, have students examine the two-way table and review how it organizes categorical information. Point out how rows, columns, and totals work together to tell a bigger story about the data. As students examine the table, ask: What do you notice when you compare the rows? [More students in both grades completed homework than not.] How do the totals help you answer questions about the group as a whole? [You can find percentages.] Have students find the percentage of sixth graders who did not complete their homework [31.8%] and compare that to the percentage of seventh graders who did not complete their homework. [35.7%; a slightly higher percentage of seventh graders did not complete their homework.] Ask students if they think, based on these percentages, that grade level influences homework completion. [No, the percentages are too close to show an association.]

For problems 6 and 7, have students work in groups to discuss possible solutions. Review the results as a class and invite groups to share the reasoning behind their explanations. For problem 7, ask students why a line of best fit may give a non-realistic answer such as the one in this scenario.

Work together as a class on problem 1 in the Exercise section, and then have students complete problems 2-5 independently. Conclude by reviewing the problems as a class, addressing any questions students found challenging and clarifying common misconceptions.
ACTIVITY Scatter Plot Posters: The purpose of this activity is for students to collect real data, create a scatter plot, and interpret the relationship between two variables. Students will work in groups of at least five and receive a poster board and a stopwatch. Each group selects one simple timed activity for all members to perform, such as jumping jacks, push-ups, counting aloud, or tossing a ball. Students should complete the activity for as long as they are able and work together to record how long they did it for and how many of the action they were able to do in that time. On the poster board, groups should label both axes, create an appropriate scale, and plot their data points to form a scatter plot. They should determine if there is an association between their variables and draw a line of best fit if applicable. To finish the activity, each group will present their poster to the class with an explanation. Follow up with a brief whole-class discussion comparing trends and observations across groups.
COMMON ERRORS Students may believe the line of best fit should connect all the data points. Students may think that a line of best fit represents actual values.
