Applications of Linear Equations I Test
About Applications of Linear Equations I:

When solving a word problem, the most important step is to understand the main objective. This gives the student a laser focus. We can then filter through all of the information, leading to an equation that can be solved. We then provide an answer and check to make sure it is reasonable.

Test Objectives:

•Demonstrate the ability to read a word problem and understand the main objective

•Understand how to setup an equation based on the information given in a word problem

•Demonstrate the ability to check the solution to a word problem
