Grade 8 - Patterns and Relations

Standard 8.RP.1.2 - Practice evaluating variable expressions with whole numbers.

Included Skills:

Students will be expected to model and solve problems, concretely, pictorially, and symbolically, where a, b, and c are integers, using linear equations of the form
ax = b
x/a = b, a ≠ 0
ax + b = c
x/a + b = c, a a ≠ 0
a(x + b) = c
