Solving Systems of Equations Check
This is just a Nspire file that affords the teacher some flexibility in terms of approach. It consists of ten problems with simple substitution.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solving-systems-of-equations-check
Extraneous Solutions
Students will solve quadratic equations step by step graphically. They will discover that some of the equations have an extraneous solution and they will investigate at which step in solving the equation that these extra solutions appear.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/extraneous-solutions
What does "i" do?
The purpose of our lesson is to allow students to foster an understanding of what happens geometrically when a number is multiplied by i. This shall be achieved by working through the lesson using an investigative approach.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-does-i-do
