Lab objectives and outcomes

Students will be able to explain how manipulating the slope and y-intercept values in a linear equation affects the position and orientation of its corresponding straight line on a graph.
Students will be able to demonstrate the ability to generate a target straight line on the graph by precisely adjusting the slope and y-intercept parameters.
Students will be able to differentiate between the visual effects of positive, negative, and zero slope values on the steepness and direction of a straight line.

Solve Two Step Inequality [Timed Unguided]
A simulation where learners solve two-step inequalities by applying inverse operations step by step, with interactive feedback and number line visuals to show solution sets and reinforce inequality rules.
