Properties of Algebra

Use the check boxes and slider bars to discover and illustrate the Properties of Algebra.

What do you notice when you change the slide bars for properties that have similar names? Are there any types of numbers that do not work for the Multiplicative Inverse Property? Explain. What does a double negative number (the opposite of a negative number) represent in the Additive Inverse Property? Which property could be called conditional property because they have an "if - then" statement?

ACCESS - Slope Exercises

Slope Intercept Form

Use the two points to graph the line.
1. Use the worksheet provided.

What's My Coloring Rule 1?

As you drag the point slowly around the coordinate plane, the point will change color. Describe precisely the coloring rule.

Solving Systems of Equations by Graphing

Get both equations in slope intercept form. Use one set of sliders for one of the equations and the other set for the other equation. Once the slope and y-intercept are in the right place, check the solution!

ACCESS - Exponent Patterns - Powers of a Power

Use the sliders to change the values of the base and exponents. What pattern do you see in the value of the exponent of the answer?
