Questions and Answers

Explain why providing specific details about figures is essential for identifying a pattern.

Without details, the pattern cannot be determined.

In the book club membership scenario, what does the variable b represent in the expression Total Cost = 10 + 6b?

  • The total cost for a member
  • The cost per book
  • The number of books (correct)
  • The membership fee

According to the book club scenario, a member can buy 10 books if the total cost is $70.

False (B)

To solve the equation $10 + 6b = 106$, the first step is to subtract ______ from both sides of the equation.

Book Club Cost Formula

Cost = Membership fee + (Cost per book * Number of books)

Equation to Find Books

Set the total cost equal to the given amount to find the number of books.

Evaluate 9a + 7 for a = 5

Substitute the given value of 'a' into the expression and simplify.

Solve 6x = 78

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.

Study Notes

  • A rule for a pattern cannot be determined without specific details and/or description of the figures in the pattern.

Book Club Membership

  • The total cost for a book club member is the membership fee plus the cost of books purchased.
  • The total cost for a member can be expressed as: Total Cost = 10 + 6b, where b represents the number of books.
  • If a member spends $106, the equation to represent this is: 10 + 6b = 106
  • To solve the equation 10 + 6b = 106:
    • Subtract 10 from both sides: 6b = 96
    • Divide both sides by 6: b = 16
  • A member can buy 16 books for $106.

Evaluating Expressions

  • To evaluate 9a + 7 for a = 5:
    • Substitute a = 5 into the expression: 9(5) + 7
    • Simplify: 45 + 7 = 52
  • The value of the expression 9a + 7 when a = 5 is 52

Graphing Linear Equations

  • To graph 3n + 7, plot the line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 7.

Solving Equations

  • To solve 6x = 78:
    • Divide both sides by 6: x = 13
  • To solve n + (-2) = 5:
    • Add 2 to both sides: n = 7
  • To solve 6p + 1 = 19:
    • Subtract 1 from both sides: 6p = 18
    • Divide both sides by 6: p = 3
  • To solve r/5 = 10:
    • Multiply both sides by 5: r = 50
