Students write the simplest algebraic expressions for the lengths and area of parts of a composite shape, then solve these expressions using substitution. They then solve an equation that relates an algebraic expression to a given side length.
Students interpret a graph of the Hare's Progress to answer questions about rate, rest, and reading sections of the graph. They also identify the constant motion of the tortoise and explain the result of the race.
Students interpret information from a flowchart to calculate the total costs of different sized groups staying in a motel for varying lengths. They also complete a linear algebraic equation to show the costs of one group's stay.
