6th Grade MAT Targeted Standards
Domain (EE) Expressions and Equations
Cluster: Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.

MAT-06.EE.02 Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.

• a. Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers.
• b. Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity.
• c. Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables. Include expressions that arise from formulas used in real-world problems. Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-number exponents, in the conventional order when there are no parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations).

MAT-06.EE.02.b Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity.

For example, describe the expression 2 (8 + 7) as a product of two factors; view (8 + 7) as both a single entity and a sum of two terms.

MAT-06.EE.02.c Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables. Include expressions that arise from formulas used in real-world problems. Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-number exponents, in the conventional order when there are no parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations).

For example, use the formulas V = s³ and A = 6 s² to find the volume and surface area of a cube with sides of length s =1/2.

Cluster: Represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and indepenent variables

MAT-06.EE.09 Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another; write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation.

For example, in a problem involving motion at constant speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the equation d = 65t to represent the relationship between distance and time.
