Unit Overview
Unit 2: Proportionality and Linear Relationships
Students extend their understanding of ratios and develop understanding of proportionality to solve single and multi-digit problems (%
problems, discounts, interest, tax, etc.) viewing negative numbers in terms of everyday contexts. They graph proportional relationships and
understand the unit rate informally as a measure of the steepness of the related line, called the slope. They analyze proportional relationships
and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems. They formulate expressions and solve equations FLUENTLY. They use properties
of operations to generate equivalent expressions. They solve real-life and mathematical problems using numerical and algebraic expressions
and equations. They understand the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations. They analyze and solve linear
equations.

problems posed with
positive and negative
rational numbers in any
form (whole numbers,
fractions, and decimals),
using tools strategically.
Apply properties of
operations to calculate
with numbers in any form;
convert between forms as
appropriate; and assess
the reasonableness of
answers using mental
computation and
estimation strategies. For
example: If a woman
making $25 an hour gets a
10% raise, she will make
an additional 1/10 of her
salary an hour, or $2.50,
for a new salary of $27.50.
If you want to place a
towel bar 9 3/4 inches
long in the center of a
door that is 27 1/2 inches
wide, you will need to
place the bar about 9
inches from each edge;
this estimate can be used
as a check on the exact
computation.
