In this 12 questions - matching game, students will solve systems of linear equations with three variables by elimination and substitution or using Gaussian elimination. Cramer’s Rule is another method that students can use to solve ten of the systems. (There is one system that is consistent and its equations are dependent and one system that is inconsistent).
Students find the solution to each of the given systems of equations. Their solutions are written on twelve of 13 fish. When students arrive at a correct answer, they “catch the magic fish” having this answer written on it. It is said that only one fish is not really magic, because it doesn’t fulfill wishes. Students have to find it out.
The activity can be used individually, in pairs or in groups of 3 or 4.
Student recording sheets and answer keys are included.
