 UNIT 1 - LESSON 1
Here's a more detailed overview of Lesson 1 in Unit 1 of the
Introductory Mathematics course:

Title: Solving Linear Equations

Objectives:
- Understand the terminology used when solving linear equations
- Apply inverse operations to isolate the variable in one-step
linear equations
- Solve one-step linear equations with whole numbers
- Solve one-step linear equations with decimals
- Solve one-step linear equations with fractions
- Solve multi-step linear equations

Key Concepts and Skills:

- Identifying terms, coefficients, and constants in linear equations
- Using inverse operations: addition/subtraction,
multiplication/division
- Isolating the variable on one side
- Solving equations with parentheses
- Solving equations with fractions by eliminating denominators

- Solving multi-step equations by combining like terms

Example Problems:
- One-step equations: x + 5 = 10, y - 3 = 4
- Equations with parentheses: x + (6 - 4) = 10
- Fractions: x/5 = 3
- Decimals: 0.5x = 10
- Multi-step: 3x + 2 - x = 7

Activities:

 UNIT 1 – LESSON 2
Here are more details on Lesson 2 of Unit 1:

Title: Solving Multistep Linear Equations

Objectives:
- Solve multistep linear equations with whole numbers
