In the procedure and analysis, students use pen, paper, pencil, metric ruler, and centimeter graph paper to work with simultaneous equations. An extension problem concerns two aircraft that have taken off from different runways at the same time. The students determine if there is danger of a collision by plotting the two equations on a graph and explain their answers. An Our Findings section can be used by teachers and students to compare their own responses to the analysis questions with the expected results. The projects are reproducible and have comprehensive instructions so that students may work with little direction from the teacher.
Appendices contain a list of math symbols, definitions, and directions for constructing a pinboard.
