Activity – I TLO: To solve linear equation in one variable by activity method.

To solve x + 4 = 7

 Start by taking one white rectangular piece to represent ‘x’ and 11 white square pieces
to represents constant 4 and 7.

 Create two separate work areas – one for LHS and the other for RHS of the equation.
Keep the white rectangle piece and 4 white square pieces on LHS and 7 white square
pieces on RHS.

 To remove the constant 4 on LHS, add three green (negative) colour square pieces to
both areas. This is equivalent to adding –3 to both sides. This is done to create 0 pairs.

Prepared by: M. S. KumarSwamy, TGT(Maths) Page - - 5

 Remove the 4 zero pairs from each side to obtain the solution x = 3.

Activity – II
TLO: Group Activity – Constructing linear equations from Real Situations

This activity will have students construct and solve linear equations that they derive from real
world situations.

Group size: 4 people

1. Construct a linear equation in which the solution is the number of apps that you have on
your smartphone. (If you do not have a smartphone then your solution should be a = 0).
The equation should require at least two operations. For example:
3(61 – a) = 63 where a represents the number of apps.

2. Pass your paper to the student sitting to your right. That student will solve the equation and
verify that the answer is correct.

3. Next, construct another linear equation. The solution to this equation should be the number
of movies that you have seen in a theater in the last year. For this equation, be sure to have a
variable on each side of the equation. For example:
4m – 6 = 2m + 2 where m represent the number of movies.

4. Pass your paper to the student sitting to your left. That student will solve the equation and
verify that the answer is correct.

5. Each of you will construct another equation in which the solution is the number of classes
that you are taking this semester. This time include fractions in the equation.
2
For example: c  11  13 , where c represents the number of classes.
3

6. Pass your paper to the student sitting across from you, diagonally. That student will solve
the equation and verify that the answer is correct.

7. Construct a linear equation whose solution is the price per gallon of gas that you most
recently purchased (rounded to the nearest cent). For example:
100p – 201 = 188 where p represents price per gallon.

8. Take all four papers and exchange them with another group. Those students will solve the
equations and verify that the answers are correct.

Activity – III
TLO: To solve linear equation in one variable trial and error
method.

Solve linear equation in one variable trial and error method

Let the equation is 7x + 2 = 51.
We can try some numbers, adjust them, and see if we manage to hit the right answer.
For example, trying 3 as our x, we get 7 x 3 + 2 = 23 and with we get 7 x 5 + 2 = 37
As we increase our x it seems that we increase our result, so if we want to get 51 then we
will want to try an even higher x.
If we try a considerably higher x such as 8, then we get 7 x 8 + 2 = 58, which has passed the
mark a little. Coming down to 7, we find that it does the trick, since 7 x 7 + 2 = 51. Therefore
the required solution is x = 7

Sample Activityangles
–2 of a Parallelogram are equal

To verify the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal by using activity method.
 Take 5 toothpicks to form a parallelogram and one diagonal.

 Find the measures of the two acute angles and two obtuse angles.
 Toothpicks are the same length, therefore each of the triangles is an equilateral triangle.
So, x equal to 600.
 Each of the acute angles of a parallelogram has a measure of 600. So, y equal to 2 x 600 =
1200.
