This SAT Sphere lesson focuses on essential SAT test topics in the Word Problems and Applications section. You'll build a strong understanding of core concepts, learn time-saving test-taking strategies, and apply your knowledge to realistic Digital SAT practice questions.
01
Introduction to Word Problems and Applications
Frames why word problems dominate the Digital SAT and reminds students to recall key skills from earlier lessons: simplifying expressions, solving linear equations and systems, working with ratios & proportions, and interpreting percentages.
02
Dissecting a Word Problem
Teaches students to pinpoint givens, unknowns, and quantitative relationships in a narrative, refreshing the earlier concepts of variables, constants, and coefficients.
03
Translating Narratives into Algebraic Expressions
Guides students in converting highlighted quantities from Slide 2 into symbolic expressions, building on combining like terms and distributive property skills mastered in Fundamentals of Algebra.
04
From Expressions to Equations
Shows how to link multiple expressions into one or more equations that model the situation, extending prior lessons on equality and linear relationships.
05
Solving Single-Equation Word Problems
Applies algebraic techniques to solve linear equations derived from word problems and interpret the solutions within context, reinforcing inverse operations and sign management.
06
Systems and Multi-Step Problems
Tackles problems requiring two equations or sequential reasoning (e.g., mixture and work-rate), extending the Systems of Equations lesson from Fundamentals of Algebra.
07
Real-World Applications Across Contexts
Presents finance, science, and motion examples to demonstrate transfer of algebraic modeling skills, spiraling back to ratios, proportions, and exponent rules from earlier modules.
08
Key Takeaways and Targeted Practice
Synthesizes strategies from the lesson and offers mixed practice problems that integrate translation, equation setup, and solution verification to cement mastery.
