Algebra Quiz

Place in mathematics curriculum:

This activity can be used to:

• Allow students practice with solving various types of one-variable equations.

This activity allows the user to practice solving algebra problems in both linear and quadratic forms. The student can choose to solve linear equations involving various properties of equality as well as solving quadratic equations in standard form. They can also choose the difficulty level and amount of time given to solve each problem. This activity would work well in groups of 2 for about 25-30 minutes if you use the exploration questions and 15-20 minutes otherwise.

Preparations for this activity:

• Explain the difference between solving a quadratic equation vs. solving a linear one.
• Encourage students to try more difficult problems and decrease the allowed time.
