The editor of Coordinate Opinions, the school newspaper, began writing an editorial on the deterioration of summer job opportunities, especially tor girls. When word of the editorial was leaked to the mayor, he demanded to be given air time on the local news broadcast. His response to the proposed editorial: “The editor of Coordinate Opinions should be removed from her job! Her allegations that the summer job situation for students has deteriorated is totally unfounded. More students have summer jobs today than when I was in high school. And as far as girls not having adequate opportunities in Gridville, more girls will be employed this summer than boys.” The school principal, in an attempt to appease the mayor, removed the school editor from her post. However, in a last-ditch effort to get the story out, the editor made copies of two data displays that she had planned to use in her article. The data displays in Figure I circulated throughout Gridville High. Analyze the data to make the case for the dismissed editor. Feel free to use tables, ratios, fractions, decimals, percents, or any other data displays that will strengthen you argument.

The people of Amazon Island often found themselves seeking out best prices and adding up purchases to find totals. In order to help them do their calculations, they created two binary operations: “minimize” and “join.” They used the symbol ⊕ for minimize and ⊞ for join. 5⊕8=5 5 ⊞ 8 = 13 You take the minimum of 5 and 8 to get 5 Generally: a ⊕ b = min{a,b} You join 5 and 8 to get 13 (it’s really just like adding but they call it joining); Generally: a ⊞ b = a+b In this lesson we will explore some properties, equations, and solutions by investigating how they might apply on the Amazon Island. A solution to an algebraic equation is the set of things put in place of the variable that make it true. 1. Solve the following (i.e. find everything that would make it true.)

When Western Leftie figured out the problem, he just sent a new email using a few extra parentheses for the Islander: {[((1+2) x c) +3] c}2 What does the expression above lead to when c=10? When Islander wanted to get Leftie to see the answer as 321, she had to write, (1+(2 × c))+(3 × (c^2)) The Islander hated all of the parentheses and considered leaving the planet. © 2015 CUNY Collaborative Programs Supported by the NYS Education Department DRAFT – DO NOT DUPLICATE S136 ALGEBRA LESSON 1.2 Problem Set 1 Luckily on the planet earth we have come to agreements on an order of operations that enables all of us to communicate with only a reasonable use of parentheses. Some would say that the precedence of multiplication over addition is probably a consequence of natural language. 5 apples and 2 bananas is something like 5×a+2×b or 5a+2b where the five next to a implies multiplication. This may have to do with the fact that multiplication is sometimes expressed by adjectives in the natural language, while summation is expressed by a conjunction. The critical result is that people around the world can communication mathematical expressions without excessive use of parentheses. Multiplication and division precede addition and subtraction. And exponents apply to what is immediately next to them.

They help make sense of algebra since solving algebra problems always requires the equation to stay balanced. • Mobiles are not always useful, however. For instance, how would you represent ½ or -5 on a mobile? • You can’t draw a mobile for every equation. But every equation balances. And anything you do to an equation has to keep the balance. a.

For example: 5𝑥𝑥 + 11𝑥𝑥 = 16𝑥𝑥 Both of the above equations follow the same algebra rules. 5√2 + 11√2 = 16√2 Just like with variables, when an expression doesn’t have like terms, you cannot simplify it. For example: 7𝑥𝑥 + 13𝑦𝑦 7√2 + 13√5 Both of the above equations cannot put together into one term to be simplified. Many of the same rules that work with variables also work with radicals. One big difference with radicals though, is that sometimes the number inside the square root can be simplified, which can then let you simplify the expression. For example: 6√28 − 3√7 The 28 in this problem can be factored so that one of its factors is a perfect square. In other words: 28 = 4 ⋅ 7 If you replace the 28 in the problem with these two factors, then you can write the expression out as: 6√4 ⋅ 7 − 3√7 Since √4 = 2, then you can also rewrite the expression as: 6 ⋅ 2√7 − 3√7 And now you can multiply 6 times 2 to get 12. 12√7 − 3√7 This is a radical expression that now has the same radicals being subtracted!

How did you solve problem #3? It says: Cynthia −7 − 3(−4 − 9) Oh, I think I distributed the −3 first. So after I did that I wrote out this: And then this: Olivia Cynthia −7 − 3(−4) − 3(−9) −7 + 12 + 27 How did you get that −3(−9) in the first part? Mr. Diller told us that when we distribute, we have to multiply by the outside number that’s right next to the parentheses by every number that shows up on the inside. In this problem, the outside part is the −3. So that’s where the −3 comes from and the Olivia Cynthia Olivia −9 was from the inside. Oh I see it now. I did it differently though. Well when I finished mine up, I got the answer of 32. How did you do it? I just followed PEMDAS and made the inside easier first. So first I wrote the problem down: −7 − 3(−4 − 9) Then I combined the −4 and the −9 on the inside to get this: Cynthia Olivia −7 − 3(−13) How did you get −13? I thought two negatives made a positive. That’s only when you multiply. When it’s addition or subtraction, I think of the number line. We start at −4 and then go to the left 9 spots. That would land me even deeper into the negative numbers. When I plugged just the inside part into my calculator, so just the −4 − 9 and it said it was −13, it made sense to me that way. Cynthia Oh okay. That makes sense to me. Olivia Yeah, so then I multiplied the −3 by the −13 and got this: −7 + 39 © 2016 CUNY Collaborative Programs Supported by the NYS Education Department S354 NAME DATE ALGEBRA LESSON 4.5 Cynthia And that equals 32 also!

Look at each of the lines below. As you look from left to right along each line, does it go up, down or neither? The answer to this question tells us if the slope of each line. When a line goes up from left to right, it has a positive slope, and when a line goes down from left to right, it has a negative slope. The slope is zero if the line is horizontal, meaning it shows no increase or decrease from left to right. Determine if the slopes of the lines below are positive, negative, or zero. 2. Now put lines A-G in order of steepness, from steepest in the negative direction to steepest in the positive direction. Steepest Negative 3. Steepest Positive To make precise comparisons, we can measure steepness of a line using slope. You already know how to find the sign of the slope of a line.

DATE ALGEBRA LESSON 4.8 Consider these methods with the following dialogue to think about how can you test the point (x, y) to see if it is on this line. Marcel: So, next we have to figure out if the point (x,y) is on the line. How can we do that? Jahnia: That problem looks similar to the ones we just completed. The only difference is we are using the letters x and y instead of a pair of numbers. Let’s try to complete it the same way as the other problems. What would be the x-distance? Marcel: Before we had to subtract to get the distance. So let’s subtract here. The x-distance would be the difference between x and 9, so x-9 is the x-distance. Jahnia: Ok, that sounds good. So that means the y-distance would be ___________. Marcel: Now lets’ try and figure out if the slope is negative or positive. We can’t plot the point to see where it is, because we don’t know where (x,y) is. Hmm… Jahnia: We do know where (x,y) is! It’s on the line. So that means we know the slope has to 4 be . We don’t have to answer “yes” or “no,” we just have to figure out a pattern for the 5 points on the line. Marcel: Ok, I think I understand. It’s like the points we had before were guesses, and we were using the slope to check to see if the points fit a pattern. Now we are just using x and y in the pattern instead of two numbers from a point. Jahnia: Exactly! So if (x,y) is a point, then 𝑦𝑦−8 𝑥𝑥−9 4 = . 5 Marcel: So that equation should work for every (x,y) point that is on the line. Jahnia: That means the equation for the line is just the y-distance over the x-distance set equal to the slope. 4.

She has these expenses regardless of how many hats she makes. The remaining expenses are variable costs, such as materials and labor. These costs are proportional to the number of hats made. For example, in a week in which 500 hats were made and sold, her variable costs were $7,500. In a week in which 1,000 hats were made, they were $15,000. All the hats were sold to department stores at $20 each. Let n equal the number of hats sold and I equal income in a week. 1. Write an equation relating the income (I) to the number of hats sold (n). Income would be the money received from the department stores for the hats sold to them. 2. Consider the hatmaker’s costs: a. Write an expression for the variable costs (VC) to produce n hats. That is, if the shop made n hats in a week, what would the variable costs be? (Think about the clues given in the first paragraph) b. Write an equation relating the total cost per week (TC) and the number of hats made and sold that week (n). 3. What does profit mean? Write a relationship (equation) connecting profit (P), income (I), and costs (TC). 4. The difference between cost and income is the owner’s profit. If the hatmaker has no sales, she will still have to pay the fixed costs, and therefore will have a large loss. If she has high sales, she will cover her fixed costs and make a good profit. a. In one particular week, the hatmaker made and sold 500 hats. Did she make a profit or suffer a loss? How much? (She sold her hats for $20 each). b. In another week, she made and sold 1,000 hats. Did she make a profit or suffer a loss? How much? 5. Somewhere between no sales and many sales is a number of sales called the breakeven point. This is the point at which costs and income are equal, so there is zero profit but also zero loss. a.

All these problems have involved systems of equations. 1. Consider these five equations 13: i. 2x + 3 = 7 ii. x2+5x+6=0 iii. (x - 2)2 = 0 iv. 2x + y = 7 v. 3x - y=3 a. Equations i, ii, and iii each involve one variable. How many solutions does each equation have? Find the solutions using any method you choose. b. Equations iv and v each involve two variables. How many solutions does each equation have? Can you list them? Explain why or why not. c. Consider Equations iv and v. If you were to graph the solutions of 2x + y = 7 and 3x – y = 3 together on the same graph, what would you expect to see? What would be especially significant on your graph? Explain. d. Draw graphs of 2x + y = 7 and 3x - y = 3.

What values of x and y make both x + y = 7 and 3x — y = 3 true? That can mean, what is the solution of this system of two equations? How do these values relate to your answer to Part d? It is possible to find solutions of systems of equations that are not linear! 2. Use a graph to solve this system of equations. Rewrite the equations before graphing them, if necessary. How many solutions can you find? y – x - 1=0 y=x2 - 3x + 4 3. The problem below is from Activity 3. Is this an example of a system of equations?

Create new tables, using smaller increments as necessary. b. How do the solutions of this equation relate to what you found in Problem 2? Explain why the solutions are related in this way. c.

After doing some research, you find that there are two companies in your town with jobs for the summer. Both of them make T-shirts. Tops, Inc. pays its employees $1000 per month plus $2.50 for every shirt they complete in the month. Vees, Inc. pays its employees $500 per month plus $3.50 for every shirt they complete in a month. a. Consider if you were a student looking for full-time summer work.

Angelique Something with number, or value in it? Absolute number? Yulia No, it was Absolute value! That was it. Angelique Yeah! That was totally it. I had Mrs. Lockhart and she talked about how the Absolute Value bars are kinda like parentheses. Yulia Like, you have to do whatever is inside of them first? Angelique Yeah, like it’s the P in PEMDAS. So |−14 + 5| becomes |−9|. Yulia Yeah, but I forget what else Mr. Umbridge said. I remember him drawing a picture and talking about distance. What did your teacher last year tell you to do? Angelique I think Mrs. Lockhart talked about how after you get to just one number inside the Absolute Value bars, then it’s always a positive number. Yulia That’s a little different from what Mr. Umbridge said. I think he talked about how once you got just one number inside, the answer inside was how far away it was from zero.

Player A chooses a number or expression on the game board and circles it. This will be Partner A’s score for that round. Using a different color, Partner B circles all the proper factors of Player A’s number or expression. The proper factors of a number are all the factors of that number except the number itself. Partner B lists the factors as her score. Player B then circles a new number or expression. Player A circles all the remaining factors of that number or expression. Then, play continues in this manner. The players take turns choosing numbers or expressions and circling factors. The game is over when on consecutive plays both players have been unable to circle at least one un-circled factor from their opponent’s choice. The player with the larger sum of factors and products is the winner. Optional Rules: Scoring could be number of boxes circled Flip a coin in the beginning. The winner gets to choose a value for the ending x. At the end players calculate the “total” from all of their expressions summed together.

The movie ticket price does not change, it is always $16. What changes is the number of possible students going to see the movie. If we don’t know the total number of students who went, we don’t know how much money will be spent But we can represent it as something! If there are 𝑛𝑛 students, then we know that the total amount can be represented as 16 ⋅ 𝑛𝑛. Once we know how many students, then we can fill in for 𝑛𝑛. The total amount paid if 10 students go is 16 ⋅ 10 dollars. So in this case we evaluate the expression for 𝑛𝑛 = 10. © 2016 CUNY Collaborative Programs Supported by the NYS Education Department S605 NAME DATE MTE LESSON 3 The total amount paid if 15 students go is 16 ⋅ 15 dollars. In this case we evaluate the expression for 𝑛𝑛 = 15. Evaluating Expressions are helpful ways to sometimes work with problems. When the students go to see the movie, some may decide they want popcorn.

With multiple choice problems, you can use the answers to give you your guesses too! Follow Deno and Eddie to see how they reached the first answer on their exams. Then answer the questions that show up after. A. B. C. D. 1 −1 −5 5 #1: Solve for 𝑡𝑡 if 5𝑡𝑡 − 3(𝑡𝑡 + 6) = −8 Deno is thinking: It’s the test and uh oh! I can’t remember how to do these! Okay, calm down, I can do this! Okay, what do I remember? I know I can guess. Let me try plugging answer A. 5(1) − 3(1 + 6) = −8 Now I know I can just follow PEMDAS. Let’s see, parentheses first. 5(1) − 3(7) = −8 5 − 21 = −8 Okay, 5 − 21 on my calculator gives me −16 not −8, so it’s not A. Let me give B a shot. What if 𝑡𝑡 is −1? Ugh! I hate negatives. Good thing I have a calculator for this exam. 5(−1) − 3(−1 + 6) = −8 Working through that he gets: −20 = −8 That’s not right either. I’m glad there is no time limit for this exam. I can take my time. Let me try C. 5(−5) − 3(−5 + 6) = −8 Then he gets: −28 = −8 Okay, that didn’t work either. This last choice better work! 5(5) − 3(5 + 6) = −8 Finally he gets: −8 = −8 Hey that worked! The answer must be D. Okay, let me try the next one. Whew! © 2016 CUNY Collaborative Programs Eddie is thinking. Okay, yes! I know how to do these. First let me write the question down. 5𝑡𝑡 − 3(𝑡𝑡 + 6) = −8 Great, okay, now I think my first step is to distribute. 5𝑡𝑡 − 3𝑡𝑡 − 18 = −8 Oh man, I’m glad I studied distributing yesterday. Last week I made the mistake where I forgot to multiply the negative part! Next step, I gotta put the two 𝑡𝑡 things together. Five 𝑡𝑡s minus three 𝑡𝑡s is gonna be two 𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡. 2𝑡𝑡 − 18 = −8 Now it looks normal! I know I just have to move the 18 over. So I’m gonna add 18 to both sides. 2𝑡𝑡 = 10 Then I just divide both by 2: 𝑡𝑡 = 5 Awesome! That’s there. I really want to do well on this test though, so before I pick it and move on, I’m gonna check my work. If I plug in 5, I should get −8. 5(5) − 3(5 + 6) = −8 5(5) − 3(11) = −8 25 − 33 = −8 −8 = −8 Perfect! Alright, let me move on to the next one.
