Download or read book Mathwise Linear Equations written by Peter L. Wise and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-05-02 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Note, this workbook does not include an answer key. The workbook with answer key should be ready by the end of December. Master the fundamentals of linear equations, grow in mathematical thinking skills, gain proficiency with number sense, and understand how and why math works the way it does. MathWise Linear Equations will help teach and explain basic, as well as progressively advanced, graphing skills. The fun, comic-style format appeals to a wide range of students. Speech bubbles are used throughout to give hints and explanations while students are solving math problems. MathWise Linear Equations starts with the basics of graphing and line slopes and progresses gradually to cover increasingly advanced topics such as solving for intercepts, Standard Form equations, Point Slope equations, linear inequalities, and systems of equations. Tips and Tricks Students have found the tips and tricks to be helpful and memorable, and they have also found that they add interest and excitement to their math studies. Speech Bubbles with Teacher Insights Speech bubbles are used to provide guidance, point out insights, or give helpful hints as students are solving math problems. Students learn best by doing, and the instruction given in the speech bubbles is designed to (1) sharpen students' powers of observation, (2) increase number sense, and (3) instruct in digestible chunks. Simplicity of Instruction Concepts are explained clearly and simply. Every page (excluding review pages or quizzes) has a specific focus. Most pages have generous amounts of white space to keep students focused. Movement is from the simple to the increasingly complex. Step-By-Step Procedures Students learn best when given explicit, step-by-step instruction. When several steps are involved, the steps are numbered. This makes learning much more logical and memorable. Depth and Complexity Logical-Sequential Instruction Math problems are presented in a logical sequence, so that previous problems contribute to students' abilities to solve future problems. The order in which math problems are presented is critical to promoting number sense.

What are Kuratowski's theorem and Wagner's theorem? What is the motivation behind triangulation? What is quadrilateral switching? What is vertex splitting? What is the three-edges theorem? Is there an algorithm for four-coloring a map or graph? What is a Hamiltonian cycle? What is a separating triangle? How is the four-color theorem like an ill-conditioned logic puzzle? Why is the four-color theorem true? What makes the four-color theorem so difficult to prove by hand?

You will be hard-pressed to find one single area of mathematics that is taught after algebra in which algebra is not practiced in almost every situation. The most general and the most commonly used definition of algebra is the study of mathematical symbols as well as the study of the manipulation of these symbols. Mathematical symbols are one of the most basic elements of mathematics, aside from numbers themselves and operation symbols, so the study of these symbols is one of the most important studies that one can take up as far as mathematics is concerned. To that end, in this book, you will find some of the most important topics regarding algebra. These include but are not limited to the following: understanding integers and basic operations, inequalities and one-step operations; fractions and factors; the main rules of arithmetic; linear equations in the coordinate plane, expressions, equations and functions; real numbers; solving linear equations; visualizing linear functions, linear equations, linear inequalities, systems of linear equations and inequalities; exponents and exponential function; polynomials, quadratic equations, radical expression, radical equations, rational expressions; and finally, intermediate topics in algebra.
