TMWYK: about solving for x
-Write a proportion
-Finding a missing # in an equation or proportion
-comp test, last problem
-You can break it down
-Do problem backwards
-Can use PEMDAS
-Guess and check
- 2 = 1
4 2
-equal the same thing, have the same value
-2+4=3+3

R and L 64 T-shirt problem
Walkathon T-shirt problem
Given these equations, what do you think the C and n could stand for? Could you make up a problem?
Mighty T
C= 49 + n
C=cost
n=# of students
49 to create a design (add on)
No-Shrink T
C=4.5n
C=cost
n=number of students
No add on, hits 0 axis
R/L 63
Here is the dilemma. I have $120. Which place should I go to buy the maximum amount of t-shirts.
-Need two ways to justify your thinking
TMWYK: About the add on
*extra in linear problems
*not indep. or depend variable
*Found when indep (x) variable=0
*Intersecting y-axis for add-on?
*Called y-intercept because its where the line or what your graphing crosses the y-axis.
-It's the first point in the string of data
*The add on is where the intercept is
*not indep. or depend variable
*Found when indep (x) variable=0
*Intersecting y-axis for add-on?
*Called y-intercept because its where the line or what your graphing crosses the y-axis.
-It's the first point in the string of data
*The add on is where the intercept is

Positive and Negative Constant of Proportionality
+
*Add on at lowest point
*Dependent variable goes up
-
* Add on at highest point
*Dependent variable goes down
*Add on at lowest point
*Dependent variable goes up
-
* Add on at highest point
*Dependent variable goes down

Henri and Emile
L-57 The Walking Race
Henri (younger): 1 meter per second gets a 45 meter start (1.5 meters slower)
Emile (older): 2.5 meters per second (1.5 meters faster)
We want Henri to win, but not so obvious
How long/far should the race be?
*Tied at 30 seconds or 75 meters
(Race needs to be less than 75 meters)

-Equations

Independent Variable- Seconds
Dependent Variable- Meters

Weeks and Money
Make 2 of the most relevant observations from this table.
How is this table the same or different from the previous tables we have seen?
-Goes down
-at 0 it is 144
L-57
144-w(12)=$
Which is the independent variable? Which is the dependent variable?
Independent-
Dependent-
Constant of proportionality- 12
The 144 add on thing: This is the starter for the problem, It's the base.
-Could be the head start like emile and Henri
***The add on/start is at week 0
Where can I see the add on in this graph?
-The highest point of the line
-The starting point
How can I find the constant of proportionality on the graph?
-Every time is goes down by 12.
-If you start at one point you can count the amount of spaces you go down. (The spaces between the point)
-The furthest point on the x-axis
L-58
What is the same and different about linear relationships that have positive and negative constant of proportionality?
