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: 
Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions.

Answer: 
No. Completing neither of these problems requires replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other equation.

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

standard_description: Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to compare methods that can be used to count numbers between 100 and 999. Students see images of beans that are put in groups of 5 and another in groups of 10. A third image uses groups of 100, groups of 10, and single beans. Students make connections to place value and their understanding of the base-ten structure (MP2, MP7). They also consider opportunities for accuracy and efficiency when they articulate pros and cons for each method.
Launch
Groups of 2
Display image of a cup of beans or display a cup of beans.
Read the context aloud.
Activity
1 minute: quiet think time
5 minutes: small-group discussion
Monitor for students who:
describe the organization and group sizes in each method
describe Clare’s method in terms of hundreds, tens, and ones
discuss ideas such as efficiency (how long it takes) and accuracy (chances of mistakes)
Student Facing

Activity Synthesis
Invite previously selected students to share their observations.
“Which of these strategies do you believe would be the fastest or slowest? Explain.”
“Do you think it would be easier to make a mistake using one of these strategies? Which one and why?”
“Which strategy do you prefer? Why?”
