Narrative
The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.


Standard options: 
A. Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m.
B. Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?


Your response:
Thought: In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.
Answer: B

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Solve a simple system consisting of a linear equation and a quadratic equation in two variables algebraically and graphically. For example, find the points of intersection between the line y = –3x and the circle x^(2 )+ y^(2) = 3.

Represent a system of linear equations as a single matrix equation in a vector variable.

Solve systems of linear equations exactly and approximately (e.g., with graphs), focusing on pairs of linear equations in two variables.

Find the inverse of a matrix if it exists and use it to solve systems of linear equations (using technology for matrices of dimension 3 × 3 or greater).

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.
problem_activity: Task
Lisa is working with the system of equations $x + 2y = 7$ and $2x - 5y = 5$. She multiplies the first equation by 2 and then subtracts the second equation to find $9y = 9$, telling her that $y = 1$. Lisa then finds that $x = 5$. Thinking about this procedure, Lisa wonders
There are lots of ways I could go about solving this problem. I could add 5 times the first equation and twice the second or I could multiply the first equation by -2 and add the second. I seem to find that there is only one solution to the two equations but I wonder if I will get the same solution if I use a different method?
What is the answer to Lisa's question? Explain.
Does the answer to (a) change if we have a system of two equations in two unknowns with no solutions? What if there are infinitely many solutions?
