On the same winter morning, the temperature is -28° F in Anchorage, Alaska and 65° F in Miami, Florida. How many degrees warmer was it in Miami than in Anchorage on that morning?

This problem should be looked at by imagining or drawing an outside thermometer. Then, the distance from the negative temperature to 0 and the distance from 0 to 65 can be added together. This will result in the answer of 93 degrees.

The lowest temperature ever recorded on earth was -89° C in Antarctica. The average temperature on Mars is about -55° C. Which is warmer, the coldest temperature on earth or the average temperature on Mars? Write an inequality to support your answer.

-55 > - 89 so, the average temperature on Mars is warmer.

A flea is jumping around on the number line. 1.If he starts at 1 and jumps 3 units to the right, then where is he on the number line? 2.How far from zero is he? 3.If he starts at 0 and jumps 5 units away, where might he have landed?4.If the flea jumps 2 units and lands at zero, where might he have started? 5.The absolute value of a number is the distance it is from zero. The absolute value of the flea’s location is 4 and he is to the left of zero. Where is he on the number line?

Ordering Rational Numbers

Find and label the numbers 4/3, 5/4, -2/3 and - ¾ on the number line. Then, state which of the following inequalities is true. a)2/3 > - ¾ b)– 2/3 < -3/4

Since –2/3 is to the right of – 3/4, then – 2/3 > - 3/4

1.Determine the original price of the sandals from the chart above.2.A person decides to buy a pair of sandals and a Denim Collection. If she had purchased them before the sale, she would have paid $189.00 before taxes. Using the answer from question one, determine the total price she would have paid for the two items during the sale.3.The original price for printed T-shirts is $5.00 more than the original price for plain T-shirts. Let n represent the price of a plain T-shirt and write an expression for the cost of two printed T-shirts and two plain T-shirts.4.During the sale, the final price for the items in number four comes toapproximately $58.00.

The Camping Club is planning a series of camping trips this fall. The club will provide equipment and organize transportation. Participants must bring enough food and water for the trip and be prepared to carry a backpack with all necessary equipment and food. The club would like to develop formulas to provide members an easy way to figure out how much weight they will need to carry for each trip.

– Trips between April 15 and September 15 will use warm-weather gear (lighter tent and sleeping bag), which weighs 21 lbs, including the backpack.

– Trips between October 16 and March 15 will use cold-weather gear (heavier tent and sleeping bag), which weighs 27 lbs, including the backpack.

– Students should plan to bring 1.75 lbs of food per day (water will be filtered along the way).

– Trips longer than 4 days will require an extra 7 lbs of gear (extra fuel for cooking and more cooking gear).

Write equations that would allow members to figure out how much weight they willneed to carry depending on when the trip occurs and how long it lasts.Use your equations to determine how much weight each camper will be carrying at the start of each of the following trips:

– Second week of August—Black Rock Mountain State Park—2-day trip– First week of September—Unicoi State Park—3-day trip– Third week of November—Fort Mountain State Park—4-day trip– First week of December—Vogel State Park—7-day trip

You have invited all your friends to your birthday party, and every friend who is coming will bring 4 cookies. How many cookies will there be at your party if 1 friend comes? How many cookies will there be if 2 friends come?•Make a table for the number of cookies at your party if up to 6 friends attend.

•Using your results in the table, develop a general rule for finding the number of cookies, y, at your party for any number of friends that come, x. •Graph the ordered pairs.

•Does your general rule work with the results on your graph? •What happens to the number of cookies at your party as the number of guests goes up? •Use your rule to write an equation for finding the number of cookies.

Mean Absolute Deviation

1)How do you find the mean absolute deviation of a set of data?

2) Find the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the height of the following basketball players. (Heights are in inches.): 75, 73, 76, 78, 79, 78, 79, 81, 80, 82, 81, 84, 82, 84, 80, 84

3) What does the MAD tell us about the heights of the basketball players?

1) Find the mean of the data. 2) Find the absolute value of the difference between each data point and the mean. 3) Find the average of those absolute values.

MAD = 2.5

The average distance of each player’s height from the mean height of the players is 2.5 inches. The players are around the same height.
