  • Understand the following concepts, vocabulary, and symbols: +, -, ×, ÷, =, variable, equation.
  • Identify a coordinate that represents the solution.
General Information
Number: MAFS.8.EE.3.AP.8a
Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 07/14
Cluster: Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations. (Major Cluster) : 

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
