Introductions
This is the beginning of your success in
understanding and using formulas to help solve equations in Algebra. The
information that is found within this WebQuest consists of basic terms and
examples for you to use as a tutor. The problem may seem a little simple in
the beginning, but they can be more complicated as you gain more
understanding of the concepts. This is a game set up for each of you or a
group of two or more to practice the skills learned.
The Task
You are to work through every step of the WebQuest game
to review formulas and terms in order to solve the equations for completing
the picture. If you are able to complete the picture without the aid of the
WebQuest tutorial, you are on your way.
The Process
To accomplish the task, you should solve each
equation to give you the correct colors. Each person should complete each
step carefully by solving each equation in order to arrive at the proper
colors to complete the picture. When you are ready to solve the equations,
click here for
part one and
part two.
Upon the completion of the equations correctly, you
will proceed to paste the picture into MS Word to paint this picture or you
may print and color with crayons. The right answer will produce the colors
to complete the
picture.
The colors in the picture will help you check your answers.
If you don't remember how to solve any of the
equations, please review these sites:
Exercise #1 Solving one step equations
Exercise
#2 Basic equations
Exercise #3 Order of Operations
