Translating to Equations Return to Table of Contents Slide 5 / 65 Equation An equation is a statement that shows that two mathematical epressions are equal. These are eamples of equations: 12 + a = 15 / 5 = 10 y = 3 When writing equations, you want to pull the pieces of important information from the problem, and turn them into mathematical epressions. Slide 6 / 65 Eample Mrs. Smith bought pencils for her class and spent $5. total. If each pencil costs $0.15, how many students are in the class? This tells us one pencil costs $0.15. This tells us the equation must equal $5.. Do we know how many students are in the class? No, so this will be our variable, so let s = students in the class. Now, think about how you would calculate the total price of the pencils. You would multiply the cost of one pencil by the number of students in the class and get the total, so that is how you must set up your equation. $0.15s = $5.

The Jets scored 34 points. Which equation could be used to find the number of points p that the Dolphins scored during the game? A p + 9 = 34 p + 34 = 9 C p - 9 = 34 D p - 34 = 9 Slide 9 / 65 2 Frank earns $8. per hour for mowing his neighbors' yards. Last weekend Frank earned $51. Which equation can be used to determine the number of hours h Frank worked last weekend? A 8.5h = 51 51h = 8.5 C 8.5/h = 51 D h/51 = 8.5 Slide 10 / 65 3 Scott is working at a local restaurant. He earns $45 for each shift plus the tips he receives from his customers. Last night, he earned $73 for his shift. Which equation can be used to determine how much Scott earned in tips, t, last night? A 45 + t = t = 45 C 73 - t = 45 D 45 - t = 73 Slide 11 / 65 4 Gabby was trying to pay off her credit card bill. After her payment of $75, her credit card balance was $263. Which equation can be used to determine the initial balance, b, on Gabby's credit card? A b = 75 b - 75 = 263 C b + 75 = 263 D b = 75 Slide 12 / 65 5 Melinda and her friends went to the theater and purchased 3 adult tickets and one large popcorn. One adult ticket costs $9, and they spent $33.75 at the theater. Which equation could be used to determine the cost c of the popcorn? A 9c - 3 = = c C 3c + 9 = D 3(9) + c = 33.75

3 Slide 13 / 65 Slide 14 / 65 Vocabulary Dependent and Independent Variables An independent variable is the variable that is subject to choice, or one that is not influenced by another variable. Return to Table of Contents The value of a dependent variable relies on the values of the independent variable. Slide 15 / 65 Eample Slide 16 / 65 Try This: Try to guess the missing variable. Frank earns $8 per hour mowing his neighbors' lawns. The amount of money he earns, m, depends on how many hours he works, h. The more hours he works, the more money he earns. Therefore the dependent variable is money, m, and the independent variable is hours, h. The amount of hours he works does not rely on the money he earns. Independent how far you drive Dependent how much gas you use weight of a sick child dosage of medicine given your test score how you study for the test With your group, try to think of at least three eamples of independent and dependent variables. Independent Dependent Math Slide 17 / 65 6 The number of tickets I can buy depends on how much money I have.

A Independent Variable Dependent Variable Slide 21 / 65 Slide 22 / The more people I have at my party, the more brownies I need to bake. The number of people at my party is the... A Independent Variable Dependent Variable Equations and Tables Return to Table of Contents Slide 23 / 65 Tables Slide 24 / 65 Rule Machine The relationship between dependent and independent variables can be represented with a table. The value of the output relies on 1. The value of the input 2. The rule Independent Dependent The independent variable is always in the left column, and the dependent variable is always in the right column. The relationship between independent & dependent variables and input & output works like a machine. Rule The rule is the relationship between the input and the output. It says what happens to the input inside the machine. The value of the output always depends on the value of the input.

5 Step 1. Assign a value to the input. Step 2. Hit Enter to see the output. Slide 25 / 65 Let's figuring out the rule. The input and output values will show on this table. Slide 26 / 65 The value of n is the input. Given the value for n, find the output using the given rule. n 2n Step 4. Check Your Rule Step 3. Once you have enough input/output values to figure out the rule, select + or * and the addend or factor.

Can you find an epression (rule) that will satisfy the total cost of the video game if given the original price? Original price $ Price after mark up $115 Slide 28 / 65 A parent wants to figure out the differences in grade level of her two sons. The younger son is two years behind the older one in terms of grade level. Write an epression (rule) containing a variable whic satisfies the difference in grade level of the two boys. older son's grade level 6 younger son's grade level 4th grade $55 $ th grade $38 $53 2 Kindergarten + 15 Slide 29 / 65 Tables can be used to represent equations.
