Worksheets for Algebra I, Module 1, Lesson 23 (pdf)Lesson 23 Student Outcomes
Students create systems of equations that have the same solution set as a given system.
Students understand that adding a multiple of one equation to another creates a new system of two linear equations with the same solution set as the original system. This property provides a justification for a method to solve a system of two linear equations algebraically.
