To apply your knowledge involving linear equations in one variable, you are to
play the role of a teacher. You are tasked to investigate the relationship
between the physical quantities that are found in the environment or find
real word problems that models a linear equation. You are tasked to write
the corresponding equations and related questions to the problem. Write
your explanation. You are to organize your work on a chart or poster which
shall include the problem/situation that you investigated, your observations,
the corresponding linear equation/model, related questions, explanations
and reflection. Your presentation will be judged by your classmates.

16. STAGE 3

17. INTRODUCTION
You are a farmer and supplier of rice in your
community. If the approximate numbers of
families is above 45 and each family needs a
cavan of rice per month, how many cavans of
rice are needed for 2 months? 5 months? One
year? What do you think will happen if the
number of families increases by 2 per year.

18. INTRODUCTION
Complete the table to show the demands of
rice.
Year No. of Families No. of Demands per
Year
2010 45
2011
2012
2013
2014

19. INTRODUCTION
 Based on the given information on the
table, form an equation.
 How can you construct an equation to get
the number of demands for the succeeding
years?
 How can we use the first degree equation in
one variable to solve real life problems where
certain quantities are unknown?

20. INTERACTION
On Properties of Equality
 Say: Earlier, you were able to represent and solve the
unknown by using linear equation in one variable. For
further understanding of the topic, ask: What is
equilibrium? Solicit students’ answers.
 Discuss the different properties of equality. Illustrate
each through examples and mathematical models. Use a
number line or algebra tiles whenever necessary.
Emphasize the said properties are used to simplify and
solve mathematical equations.

21. INTERACTION
 Let the students answer Activity # 1.
 Ask them to choose a partner and discuss their work.
 Let them work on Activity # 2.
 You may also ask the students to access the website for
their independent study on the properties of equality.
http://www.mathwarehouse.com
Topic on Properties of Equality and Exercises
 Let the students have a journal and answer the
question: “When do we say that equality exists between
men?”

22. INTERACTION
 On Solving Linear Equations
 Say: In the activities that we have done, we
understand/realize the importance of having equality among
men, object, and things. Then ask: Given an equation, when
do we apply APE, SPE, MPE, and DPE. Tell the students
that in the next activity they will apply the different
properties in solving equation in one variable.
 Ask the students to perform Activity # 3. Allow them to
work for 10 – 15 minutes. Ask them to get a partner, to take
turn in showing and explaining their work in front of the
class and write at least two comments on their partner’s
work.

23. INTERACTION
 Discuss the reason why zero should not be
used as a multiplier [or a divisor] in
transforming equations. Differentiate between
the terms undefined and indeterminate.

24. INTERACTION
Review PEMDAS. Have students
remember the order of operations in a multi-
operation expression or equation.

25. INTERACTION
 Let the students work by group in answering Activity
#4. Let them explain their work on the board.
 Ask the students to give procedure in solving
mathematical equations. Relate the steps to the different
properties of equality.
 Emphasize the importance of reading a word problem
carefully. List down the related terms of operations like
addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
 Word problems are difficult for many beginning algebra
students. It is important for students to realize that
when they need to apply mathematics to real life
problems, they must isolate or identify relevant data from
extraneous data. Emphasize that sometimes there are not
enough facts available to solve a given problem.
Let them work on Activity 5. (Word problem)

26. INTERACTION
You may also ask the students to access the following
websites to answer more activities on solving equations.

 Let the student do the Performance Task.

27. Integration
 Summarize what you have learned about linear
equations and inequalities by doing the activity below.
Give the students 3 to 5 minutes and ask some students to
present and explain their answers to the class.

28. Integration
Values Integration
 Ask them to answer the following questions in a
Journal to process the learning experience of the
students.
 What knowledge and skills did you learn from the
lesson that you can use in real life? What are the
attitudes of men that can be developed in the study
of first degree equations in one variable?
 How can you use your knowledge of linear equations to
lessen/eliminate corruption in our government?

29. closure
 Linear equations can be expressed either in verbal or
mathematical manner. Properties serve as a guide in
solving equations. After performing the activity, we can
say that linear equations can help in solving problems in
real life. As we continue the lessons, you can see more
applications in our everyday life.
