Sep26-30

**Tuesday - Ch 3 -Equations - 3-1 The Distributive Property**
a. ▲ commutative, associative, distributive, and substitution properties; e.g., we need to place trim around the outside edges of a bulletin board with dimensions of 3 ft by 5 ft. Explain two different methods of solving this problem and why the answers are equivalent. 7. Solve linear equations in one variable. b. Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding ex-pressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms.
 * Current Kansas Standard 1.2.1a -**The student generates and/or solves real-world problems with rational numbers using the concepts of these properties to explain reasoning:
 * Common Core Standard 8EE-** Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
