The Warm Up often includes a review related to or important to your understanding of the lesson content. It’s a great way to prepare your mind for what you are about to learn. The Warm Up should take less than five minutes to complete.


y = 13x + 2

Q: How do you determine the slope from a graph?

A: Pick two points on grid lines and then find the rise (up/down) over the run (left/right). Or the change in y over the change in x.


2) y <  14x  2

Q: How can you determine the direction of the inequality symbol for this problem?

A: Sample: You can use a test point to determine if the shaded region is being represented.

Your student may also use technology and try different symbols until their graph matches the given graph. Checking an equation or inequality using technology will be useful throughout this level. (A1:PSM, Unit 2)


  1. Equation is graphed on the coordinate plane from problem 1.
  2. (3, 1)

Q: Why is it important to be accurate when graphing a system?
A: Sample: Being accurate is important because you need to be able to find the intersection point, which is the solution.

Systems of equations can be solved by  graphing, substitution, or elimination (A1:PSM, Unit 3)
