base on the problem give, the variables x, y, and z are
use for replacing the number of days use in
accordance to the provisions of the problem give.
Understanding the variables correctly in the systems
of equation with three variables material strongly
determines the outcome of the correct resolution. The
results of this study are in line with the results of
research conducted by (Osta & Labban, 2010) which
show that students don’t have good planning in a
completion strategy until the stage of applying the
strategy.
The values that arise in the step of problem
solving in the value of mathematics education are
reasoning and relational understanding, while the
value of relevant knowledge are not appear. The value
of relational understanding arise at the step of
applying the strategy. Students are able to connect the
facts state in order to solve problems. Otherwise,
students are not understand the meaning of the
variables used before, making their answers are not
precisely good. This is in accordance with opinion
(Leung et al., 2006) that to solve a problem, other
skills such as organizing data, classifying or
determining certain relationships or patterns are need
so that it is possible that there are unusual ways use
to solve problems.
Reasoning is that students can connect one fact
with other to lead into a conclusion (Bishop, 2008) in
doing this value-based worksheet. In this study, the
reasoning value appear at the evaluation step.
Students were able to deduce ideas from the results
obtain after connecting the ideas obtain in solving
problems. There are three similarities in the problem
call the systems of equation with three variables.
The students are firstly expected to be able to
solve problems in a real context by using value-base
worksheet, but the fact showed that the value of
relevant knowledge is not appear at the step of
applying strategy. They are able to apply the
knowledge obtain at the planning step but they make
wrong in using the concepts and principles of the
systems of equation with three variables when
applying the solving strategy because students is not
understand the meaning of the variables. According
to (Ellison, 2009)the problem is give so that students
can practice and think deductively, then students can
see the relationship and the use of mathematics in
daily, also able to master
mathematical skills and
strengthen the mastery of mathematical
concepts.
4 CONCLUSION
Based on the observation analysis of value in
mathematical problem solving in secondary school, it
is know that some important values occurrence when
students do the value-based worksheet. For the
character value category, discipline values is not
appear at the step of understanding problem because
students cannot understand the problem correctly. For
the mathematics education value category, that is not
appear at the step of executing the strategy
is the
relevant knowledge because the students is not
understand how to interpret the variables they make,
and the value that appears are the value of relational
understanding and the value of reasoning. For the
mathematical value category that is not appear at step
of planning the problem solving strategy
is the value
of objectivism because students do not have good
understanding of variable concept related to the
knowledge of prerequisites in learning of systemsof
equation with three variable material which is
knowledge of variables, and the value that appears are
value of control and rationalism.
