Chapter 3: Systems of Linear Equations & Inequalities (pp. 154 – 213)
It is the goal of the instructor that the students will:
·         identify a system of equations as consistent, inconsistent, dependent, or independent
·         solve a system of equations by graphing, substitution and elimination
·         solve mixture and part-part-whole problems
·         solve a system of inequalities by graphing
·         organize and solve a problem involving linear programming
·         graph a set of parametric equations by hand and on the graphics calculator
·         create an equation in two variables by removing a parameter
·         create a set of parametric equations by adding a parameter
·         apply parametric equations to describe the path of a projectile and to graph equations and their inverses
