Students might substitute values for s [in this case values (s, N) are sufficient because these are linear relationships], generate tables for both equations, or make a geometric argument to show that the two equations are equivalent. They may also graph each equation. d.

The shape is the area between the circle and the square. r Second equation: ( +.5) + ( +.5) = (.5) + (.5) = + = ; Third equation: [ ] = ( = ) b. You cannot determine whether the epressions are equivalent by checking them at one point, although students may think that they are equivalent since these epressions produced the same number of tiles for s =. c. First equation: ( + ) + = ( + ) + = ; Second equation: ( +.5) + ( +.5) = (.5) + (.5) = 5; Third equation: [ ] = = () = 5 ( ) ( ) ( ) d. Since you can determine non-equivalency of linear equations by checking one point, the first epression is not equal to the second and the third epressions because they did not produce the same number of tiles when you checked using the same side value. In general, it is not enough to show that two epressions are equivalent when they have the same value at two different points, because you need to check all points, which is impossible. However, for linear equations such as those in this problem, checking only two values would be enough because only one line can pass through the two points. So linear epressions which agree on two values (two points) contain the same two points. So, the lines that they represent must be the same. Students will either need to check all points, which is impossible, or know that two points uniquely determine a line. (This topic was addressed on the Summary Transparency for Problem..) b.

For part (b), i and iii are equivalent because they both represent the same part of the pool. d. Answers will vary, but must be equivalent to A = (s - s + ) + (s - s) e.

Possible Answers to the Mathematical Reflections. Two epressions are equivalent when they are symbolic representations for the same situation. For all values of n,they should give the same result. The same table and the same graph can represent the epressions.. The Distributive Property can be used to rewrite epressions as the product of two or more factors (factored form) or as the sum of two or more terms (epanded form). For eample, the epression ( + 5) can be written as the sum of two terms using the Distributive Property: +.The epression 9 can be written in factored form using the Distributive Property: ( ). The Commutative Property states that we can change the order of addition or multiplication and still have equivalent epressions. For eample, + = + and ( + ) = ( + ).. To show that two epressions are equivalent, apply the Distributive and Commutative properties to one of the epressions until the original epression is identical to the second epression. If the two epressions are not equivalent, then this procedure will result in a contradiction. For eample, the epressions ( + ) and + 5 are not equivalent. If we apply the Distributive Property to the first epression, we get: ( + ) = + and + + 5. ACE ANSERS Investigation Equivalent Epressions
