Book excerpt: DESCRIPTION The ALGEBRA 1 SINGLE VARIABLE LINEAR EQUATIONS WORKBOOK is a resource that students can use to practice applying the properties, concepts, and computational techniques that are used to solve one-step, two-step, three-step, and multiple-step single variable linear equations. This workbook contains examples of step-by-step solutions for these types of equations as reference for students. This workbook also contains a review of the Commutative Properties of Addition and Multiplication, Associative Properties of Addition and Multiplication, the Additive Inverse Property, the Multiplicative Inverse Property, the Subtraction Property, the Identity Properties of Addition and Multiplication, and the Distributive Property of Multiplication. Additionally, this workbook provides examples of equations that are conditional, an identity, and a contradiction. There are step-by-step solutions for every problem in this workbook. This enables students to verify their work and solutions, and correct any mistakes. If students adhere to this process diligently, they should develop confidence in their abilities to solve the types of singe variable linear equations. HOW TO USE THIS WORKBOOK As students work their way through the different types of equations in this workbook, they may find some of the equations a bit of a challenge to solve. This is intentional so students get practice in solving various complex problems. If they get stuck on a problem, they can take a quick look at the solutions for the next step in how to proceed. Then, they should go back to the problem and keep working on it until it's finished. Afterwards, they should check their work and answer. If students can do the majority of these challenging problems correctly on their own, they can feel a sense of accomplishment knowing that they solved difficult problems. Note: These problems will definitely improve their computational skills if they minimize their use of calculators. APPLICATION PROBLEMS This workbook contains a total of 147 problems. The last 37 problems are word problems; twelve which ask students to find a number under a given set of conditions. Some problems are percentage problems and distance problems. There is a pair of word problems where students are asked to convert temperature given in degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit, and vice versa. There are other word problems where students have to determine how to use the information in the problem to substitute for one or multiple variables to reduce the equation to a single variable linear equation.
