Systems of linear equations and inequalities
-
Modeling Linear Systems - Activity B
Experiment with a system of two lines representing a cat‑and‑mouse chase. Adjust the speeds of the cat and mouse and the … head start of the mouse, and immediately see the effects on the graph and on the chase. Connect real‑world meaning to slope, y‑intercept, and the intersection of lines.

Distance-Time Graphs
Create a graph of a runner's position versus time and watch the runner complete a 40-yard dash based on the graph you made. Notice … the connection between the slope of the line and the speed of the runner. What will the runner do if the slope of the line is zero? What if the slope is negative? Add a second runner (a second graph) and connect real-world meaning to the intersection of two graphs.

Distance-Time and Velocity-Time Graphs
Create a graph of a runner's position versus time and watch the runner run a 40-yard dash based on the graph you made. Notice the … connection between the slope of the line and the velocity of the runner. Add a second runner (a second graph) and connect real-world meaning to the intersection of two graphs. Also experiment with a graph of velocity versus time for the runners, and also distance traveled versus time.
