3. Objectives –Using appropriate computation methods 1.2.a –Use multiple forms of linear equations 2.1.b –Represent linear functions using a table, graph equations, and convert from one form to another 2.1.c –Solve equations for one variable in terms of another 2.4.c –Solve systems of linear equations with two and three variables 2.5.c

4. Directions Use a piece of paper to record all attempts at each problem. If you get the wrong answer, look for your mistake and rewrite the problem with your correction so you have a fully written correct response. Have fun and remember, you are practicing for a great performance on your upcoming assessment.
