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

CA.A1.A.REI.6

Solve systems of linear equations exactly and approximately, focusing on pairs of linear equations in two variables

CA.A1.A.REI.7

Solve a simple system consisting of a linear equation and a quadratic equation in two variables algebraically and graphically

Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions plotted in the coordinate plane

CA.A1.A.REI.11

Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = f(x) and y = g(x) intersect are the solutions of the equation f(x) = g(x)

CA.A1.A.REI.12

Graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half-plane, and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes

CA.A1.F.IF.1

Understand that a function from one set (domain) to another set (range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range

CA.A1.F.IF.2

Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context

CA.A1.F.IF.3

Recognize that sequences are functions, sometimes defined recursively, whose domain is a subset of the integers

CA.A1.F.IF.4

For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship

Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes

CA.A1.F.IF.6

Calculate and interpret the average rate of change of a function over a specified interval

CA.A1.F.BF.4

Find inverse functions

CA.A1.F.LE.3

Summarize categorical data for two categories in two-way frequency tables. Interpret relative frequencies in the context of the data

CA.A1.S.ID.7

Interpret the slope (rate of change) and the intercept (constant term) of a linear model in the context of the data

CA.A1.S.ID.8

Compute (using technology) and interpret the correlation coefficient of a linear fit
