Expressions, Equations, and Inequalities

6C: Inequalities

I understand what it means for a number to make an inequality true.I can explain what the symbols ≤ and ≥ mean.I can represent an inequality on a number line.I can write an inequality to represent a situation.I can describe the solutions to an inequality by solving a related equation and then reasoning about values that make the inequality true."I can solve inequalities by solving a related equation and then checking which values are solutions to the original inequality.I can graph the solutions to an inequality on a number line.If I have a situation and an inequality that represents it, I can explain what the parts of the inequality mean in the situation.I can match an inequality to a situation it represents, solve it, and then explain what the solution means in the situation.I can use what I know about inequalities to solve real-world problems.

6D: Writing Equivalent Expressions

I can re-write subtraction as adding the opposite and then rearrange terms in an expression.I can organize my work when I use the distributive property.I can organize my work when I use the distributive property.I can use the distributive property to rewrite expressions with positive and negative numbers.I understand that factoring and expanding are words used to describe using the distributive property to write equivalent expressions.When possible, I can write an equivalent expression that has fewer terms.I can figure out whether two expressions are equivalent to each other.When possible, I can write an equivalent expression that has fewer terms.I am aware of some common pitfalls when writing equivalent expressions, and I can avoid them.I can solve story problems about percent increase or decrease by drawing and reasoning about a tape diagram or by writing and solving an equation.Given an expression, I can use various strategies to write an equivalent expression.When I look at an expression, I can notice if some parts have common factors and make the expression shorter by combining those parts.
