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.

standard_description: Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to make sense of and then use exponential notation to represent large numbers, namely 1 million and 1 billion. Students should be encouraged to say the names of the numbers in a way that makes sense to them. Contexts, in the form of human populations, are provided for each of the large numbers to help students conceptualize the magnitude of the number. Students recognize that the purpose of exponential notation is to write large numbers efficiently and recognize how many factors of ten are in a given number.
When students relate 1 million and 1 billion to products of 10 and powers of 10 they look for and make use of base-ten structure (MP7).
MLR2 Collect and Display.
Circulate, listen for and collect the language students use as they use exponential notation to represent large numbers. On a visible display, record words and phrases such as: million, thousands, billion, powers of 10, exponential notation, represent, times, multiply by ten, number of zeros. Invite students to borrow language from the display as needed, and update it throughout the lesson.

3–5 minutes: independent work time.
3–5 minutes: partner discussion
Monitor for students who:
call 1,000,000,000 a thousand million or a million thousands
make up names such as a zillion
know that 1,000,000,000 is called a billion

Activity Synthesis
Ask previously selected students to share their names for 1,000,000,000 in the given order.
“How many millions are in this number? How do you know?” (A thousand because there are 3 more zeros and that means multiplying by 10 three times.)
“How do you write this number using powers of 10? Why?” (
\(10^9\)
because there are 9 factors of 10.)
“This number is called a billion.”
“Using powers of 10, can you write a number that is bigger than a billion?” (Yes,
\(10^{10}\)
,
\(10^{11}\)
,
\(10^{100}\)
.)
“Why are powers of 10 useful for representing really big numbers?” (I would not want to write 100 zeros. I would also have to count all those zeros to see how big the number is.)
