In this real-world application for systems of inequalities, students will create and graph linear inequalities, find the feasible region, and defend their decisions using mathematical evidence.
With this activity, your students will be tasked with creating an equitable process for distributing donated canned goods to community members in need using systems of inequalities.
This can be done in groups or as an individual, alternative assessment.
This resource includes:
– 3 pages of student material
– room for extensions of this activity
– critical thinking and reflection questions
Your students will:
– writing and graphing systems of linear inequalities
– determine and analyze solutions
– defend their choices using evidence
How I have used this real world algebra application:
⭐Whole Group: This real world math activity is perfect for modeling how to write linear inequalities from word problems.
⭐Small Group: Your students can work together to complete this activity and have discussions about different solutions of systems of linear inequalities.
⭐ Individual: You can use this activity as a formative assessment for your Algebra 1 students. It will usually take them about one class period to complete on their own.
