Cluster:
Solve systems of equations. [Linear systems]

Standard:
Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions.

Cluster:
Solve systems of equations. [Linear systems]

Standard:
Solve systems of linear equations exactly and approximately (e.g., with graphs), focusing on pairs of linear equations in two variables.

Cluster:
Interpret the structure of expressions. [Linear expressions and exponential expressions with integer exponents]

Standard:
Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context. * Interpret parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, and coefficients. *

Cluster:
Interpret the structure of expressions. [Linear expressions and exponential expressions with integer exponents]

Standard:
Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context. * Interpret complicated expressions by viewing one or more of their parts as a single entity. For example, interpret P(1 + r)^n as the product of P and a factor not depending on P. *

Cluster:
Reason quantitatively and use units to solve problems. [Foundation for work with expressions, equations, and functions]

Standard:
Use units as a way to understand problems and to guide the solution of multi-step problems; choose and interpret units consistently in formulas; choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays. *

Cluster:
Reason quantitatively and use units to solve problems. [Foundation for work with expressions, equations, and functions]

Standard:
Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling. *

Cluster:
Reason quantitatively and use units to solve problems. [Foundation for work with expressions, equations, and functions]

Standard:
Choose a level of accuracy appropriate to limitations on measurement when reporting quantities. *

Cluster:
Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials. [Beyond quadratic]

Standard:
Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.

Cluster:
Understand the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials.

Standard:
Know and apply the Remainder Theorem: For a polynomial p(x) and a number a, the remainder on division by x – a is p(a), so p(a) = 0 if and only if (x – a) is a factor of p(x).

Cluster:
Understand the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials.

Standard:
Identify zeros of polynomials when suitable factorizations are available, and use the zeros to construct a rough graph of the function defined by the polynomial.
