The Puzzle Time form introduces an engaging and educational approach to the Unit 5 Review, incorporating a collection of exercises designed to enhance understanding and application of systems of linear equations. Students are initially drawn in by a quirky question about a pig building his home, setting a lighthearted tone for the mathematical challenges ahead. The form meticulously guides students through various methods of solving linear equations, including graphing, substitution, and elimination. Each exercise, labeled from A to M, presents a unique problem, ranging from evaluating ordered pairs as solutions to specific equations, to interpreting real-life scenarios such as a physical education instructor's requirement for pull-ups and push-ups. Upon completing these exercises, students are prompted to find their answers on an answer sheet and align them with corresponding letters to unveil a message related to the initial humorous question. Moreover, some problems encourage students to delve into systems of equations stemming from everyday situations, like determining the number of fiction and nonfiction books on a reading list, thereby bridging abstract mathematical concepts with practical application. This method of learning not only reinforces their algebraic skills but also enhances their problem-solving capabilities in a fun and interactive manner. Each step of the puzzle, meticulously designed to challenge the students, ultimately contributes to a comprehensive review of key concepts covered in Unit 5, making the learning process both thorough and enjoyable.

J.On one reading list, there were a total of 12 fiction and nonfiction books. On the second reading list, there were 2 times as many fiction books and 3 times as many nonfiction books, making a total of 28 books on the second reading list. Solve a system of linear equations to find the number of fiction and nonfiction books on the first reading list.
Solve the equation. Check your solution.
