M8.D.2 Represent and/or analyze mathematical situations using numbers,
symbols, words, tables and/or graphs.
M8.D.2.1 Select and/or use a strategy to simplify an expression, solve
an equation or inequality and/or check the solution for accuracy.
- M8.D.2.1.1 Solve one- or two-step equations and inequalities (should
not include absolute values "� one variable only).
- M8.D.2.1.2 Use substitution to check the accuracy of a given value
for an equation or inequality (simple inequalities with one variable).
M8.D.2.2 Create and/or interpret expressions, equations or inequalities
that model problem situations.
- M8.D.2.2.1 Match a written situation to its numeric and/or algebraic
expression, equation or inequality (up to two variables in equations
or expressions "� one variable with inequalities).
- M8.D.2.2.2 Write and/or solve an equation for a given problem situation
(one variable only).
