Applications of Systems Part 2

Topics for Today:

Yesterday we began to tackle applications of systems of equations.  Basically, we are going to be solving story problems that have two unknowns, requiring us to write two equations to solve them.  These types of problems can be categorized and patterns emerge as we see more and more of these types of problems.  

We did a Desmos activity today that helped us with building equations and solving them.
