Problem 1
The table below contains single equations in a single variable, single equations in two variables, and pairs of simultaneous equations in two variables. Check the appropriate box to show whether there is no solution, exactly 1 solution, or if there is an infinite number of solutions.

Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Description: 
Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.

Answer: 
Yes. The last three rows of the table in the first problem involves solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations. The second word problem can also be represented as two simultaneous linear equations.

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity aligns with the provided description.

shot_info: fl_problem_001392_pos_0

8
standard_description: Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).
problem_activity: Optional activity
This optional activity is an opportunity to practice the methods in this lesson to calculate products of decimals, and students have an opportunity to practice multiplying decimals in a real-world context. Students can choose to use area diagrams to help organize their work and support their reasoning. However, the goal of the activity is to have students practice using the multiplication algorithm on decimals.
Launch
Give students quiet think time to complete the activity and then time to share their explanation with a partner. Follow with whole-class discussion.
Representation: Internalize Comprehension.
Activate or supply background knowledge. Provide students with access to a blank area diagram to support information processing.
Supports accessibility for: Visual-spatial processing; Organization
Student Facing
Calculate each product. Show your reasoning. If you get stuck, consider drawing an area diagram to help.
\((5.6) \boldcdot (1.8)\)
\((0.008) \boldcdot (7.2)\)
A rectangular playground is 18.2 meters by 12.75 meters.
Find its area in square meters. Show your reasoning.
If 1 meter is approximately 3.28 feet, what are the approximate side lengths of the playground in feet? Show your reasoning.

Are you ready for more?
Write the following expressions as decimals.
\(1-0.1\)
\(1-0.1+10-0.01\)
\(1-0.1+10-0.01+100-0.001\)
Describe the decimal that results as this process continues.
What would happen to the decimal if all of the addition and subtraction symbols became multiplication symbols? Explain your reasoning.

Activity Synthesis
Select students to share their strategies, being sure to highlight approaches using area diagrams and vertical calculations. Record the representations or strategies students share and display them for all to see.
Representing, Conversing: MLR8 Discussion Supports.
Use this routine help students prepare to share their strategies with the class. Give students time to discuss how they calculated each product for the first problem with a partner. Consider using this prompt to begin the conversation: “How did you use the multiplication algorithm to calculate the product of these two decimals? Provide a step-by-step explanation.” The listener should press for details by asking clarifying questions such as, “Why did you do that first?” and “Could you explain that a different way?” Allow each student an opportunity as the speaker and listener. This will help students build confidence in explaining the process of multiplying decimals before students are selected in the whole-class discussion.
