A student should be able to . . .

Solve a linear equation in one variable using the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and

division properties of equality.

Solve a linear equation in one variable involving multiple steps.

Identify a linear equation as a conditional equation, identity, or contradiction and

describe its solution.

builder notation.

14. Solve single inequalities using the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division

properties of inequality and graph inequalities of the form x > a, x < b, a < x > b.

15. Set up and solve applications of linear inequalities.

16. Interpret graphical representation of data.

17. Plot points on the rectangular coordinate system.

23. Find the slope of a line given two points.

24. Find the slope of a line given a linear equation.

25. Given the slope of a line, identify a slope that is parallel or perpendicular to this line.

26. Determine whether two lines are perpendicular, parallel, or neither given two points or

the equation of a line.

28. Graph a line using the slope and intercept.

29. Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form given the slope and intercept.

30. Use the point-slope formula to write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form given

the slope and intercept.
