QLD (Nspire): Moveable Lines

by Bozenna Graham

Objectives

  • General solution of equations involving a single parameter

Vocabulary

  • Linear
  • Infinite
  • Parameter
  • Parallel

About the Lesson

Students are provided with two sets of linear simultaneous equations each containing a parameter. A slider is automatically created when the graphs are produced so that students can explore how the parameter effects the interaction of the two graphs, students then work on the interpretation of the algebraic solutions.
