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.

8
standard_description: Solve quadratic equations with real coefficients that have complex solutions.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this True or False is for students to demonstrate strategies and understandings they have for adding decimals. These understandings help students deepen their understanding of the properties of operations and will be helpful later in the lesson when students will need to be able to add decimals.
Launch
Display one equation.
“Give me a signal when you know whether the equation is true and can explain how you know.”
1 minute: quiet think time
Activity
Share and record answers and strategy.
Repeat with each equation.
Student Facing
Decide if each statement true or false. Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
\(0.99 + 0.1 = 0.9 + 0.1 + 0.09\)
\(0.99 + 0.01 = 0.9 + 0.1\)
\(0.99 + 0.1 = 1.99\)

Activity Synthesis
Display the first and third equations.
“How can you justify your answer without evaluating both sides?” (For the first problem, I noticed that there are 9 tenths on the right and left and also 10 hundredths. For the third problem, I saw that the right hand side is almost 2 so it's much larger than the left hand side.)
