Question. Use the distributive property to -5(x-2) equivalent expression.

Given:

−5(x−2)

− 5 (x − 2)

Use the distributive property to write an equivalent expression.

Distributive property  a × (b+c) = a × b + a × c

​−5(x−2)=−5× x − 5 × (−2)

=−5x + 10

Hence, we use the distributive property.

Equivalent expressions are expressions that have the same end value but are written differently.

Commutative property true only for multiplication and addition

Addition: ​ a + b = b + a

Multiplication:  a × b = b × a

Subtraction:  4−2 = 2−4

Division:   4 ÷ 2 = 2 ÷ 4

It can’t go with subtraction and division.

The commutative property is true only for multiplication and addition.

Question. Use the associative property when writing equivalent expressions for 2 reasons.

We can use the associative property when writing equivalent expressions for 2 reasons.

We can use it to get 2 values with the same variable in the bracket so we could add/multiply them.

Example:

\(\frac{1}{2} x+\left(\frac{1}{2} x+4\right) \)  Use associative property

\(\left(\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{1}{2} x\right)+4\)

x + 4

We can use it to get 2 values with variables in the bracket so we could extract the constant in front of these variables by using the distributive property.

\(\frac{1}{2} x+\left(\frac{1}{2} y+4\right) \)     Use associative property

\(\left(\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{1}{2} y\right)+4\)       Use distributive property

\(\frac{1}{2}\)(x+y)+4

So we can use it to easily add or extract values.

-3 + \(\frac{2}{3}\)y-4-\(\frac{1}{3}\)y

Use commutative property

​− 3 − 4 +\(\frac{2}{3}\)y-\(\frac{1}{3}\)y​

− 7 + \(\frac{1}{3}\)y

Hence, the equivalent expression is  −7 + \(\frac{1}{3}\)y

Question. The group chat shows the amount of money that each puts in to rent a car for a trip, four friends are combining their money. Use the commutative property to write two equivalent expressions.

Given that, To rent a car for a trip, four friends are combining their money.

The group chat shows the amount of money that each puts in.

One expression for their total amount of money is 189 plus p plus 224 plus q.

We need to use the Commutative Property to write two equivalent expressions.

The given expression is 189 + p + 224 + q

Using the commutative property to find the equivalent expression, we get

​189 + p + 224 + q = (189 + 224) + p + q

= 413 + p + q

​Another equivalent expression is

​189 + p + 224 + q = p + q +( 189 + 224)

= p + q + 413

The two equivalent expressions are  413 + p + q, p + q + 413

Given that, To rent a car for a trip, four friends are combining their money.

The group chat shows the amount of money that each puts in.

One expression for their total amount of money is 189 plus p plus 224 plus q.

If they need $500 to rent a car, we need to find at least two different pairs of numbers that p and q could be.

The given expression is 189 + p + 224 + q

The amount to rent a car will be $500

Thus, the expression becomes

​189 + p + 224 + q = 500

413 + p + q = 500

p + q = 500 − 413

p + q = 87

​So we need to find two values which added together to get 87 Therefore

​p = 40, q = 47

p = 20, q = 67

The two different pairs of numbers are p = 40, q = 47 and  p = 20, q = 67

\(\frac{4}{5}x \)− \(\frac{1}{5}x \) + 3 = \(\frac{4x− 1x}{5} \) +3

= \(\frac{3}{5}x \) +3

\(\frac{2}{5}x \) + 3 \(\frac{3}{5}x \) − 1= \(\frac{2}{5}x \) +\(\frac{18}{5}x \) −1

= \(\frac{2x+ 18x}{5} \) −1 = 4x −1

1 + \(\frac{3}{5}\) x + 2  = \(\frac{3}{5}\) x+ 3

1 + \(\frac{x}{5}\)  +  2  = \(\frac{x}{5}\)  + 3

1 + \(\frac{2}{5}\)x  + 3  = \(\frac{2}{5}\)x + 4

The expressions that are equivalent to \(\frac{3}{4}\) x + 3 will be \(\frac{4}{5}\) x- \(\frac{1}{5}\) x + 3 and 1 +  \(\frac{3}{5}\) x + 2

Question. How can algebraic expressions be used to represent and solve problems.

We have to tell that how can algebraic expressions be used to represent and solve problems.

The combination of variables and constants, in mathematics, is referred to as an expression.

The expression having algebraic terms are called as algebraic expressions.

These expressions are helpful in expressing the problems which consists of variables.

The variables are substituted with values given and then evaluated to obtain the solution or desired result.

The algebraic expressions represent the problems which can be evaluated by substituting values in the expression.

Question. How much it would cost to rent a scooter for 3 1/2 hours and watercraft for 1 ¾ hours.

We have to determine how much it would cost to rent a scooter for 3 1/2 hours and watercraft for 1 ¾ hours.

When we solve or evaluate an expression it means that we substitute and replace some values in the place of variables, to get the required result.

The order of operation that will be followed is Brackets, multiplication or division, and addition or subtraction.

The expressions are

​s = \(3 \frac{1}{2}\)

= 3.5

w=\(1 \frac{3}{4}\)

= 1.75

We will evaluate as below:

​15.5s + 22.8w = x

15.5cot 3.5 + 22.8.1.75 = x

54.25 + 39.9 = x

x = 94.15

The renting of both these amounts of time will cost $94.15.

Question. Misumi used to determine her account balance after “w” week. She gets 3.5 dollars in a day and 8.74 per hour.

She gets 3.5 dollars in a day and 8.74 per hour.

We consider “h” as the number of hours.

h = \(15\frac{1}{2}\)

The order of operation that will be followed is.

Brackets, multiplication or division, addition or subtraction.

We evaluate the expression as below:

​3.5 + 8.74⋅h = x

3.5 + 8.74.5.5 = x

3.5 + 48.07 = x

x = 51.57

She will receive the amount of $51.57 in that day.

Question. How should we determine which value to use for the constant and which value to use for the coefficient.

We have to tell that how should we determine which value to use for the constant and which value to use for the coefficient.

An expression is a mathematical phrase, which consists of variables and constants.

We determine the amount after w weeks as the below expression

217 + 25.5.w

In the given expression, w is the coefficient as the number of weeks can be changed.

And the constant amount is 25.5 which she always deposits.

Thus, in a problem, the factor whose value changes in different situations is considered as a variable, as its value varies.

While the value which remains the same is taken as constant.

The values which vary are considered as variables and the ones which are the same are determined as constants.

Question. Explain how is a constant term different than a variable term for an expression that represents a real-world situation.

We need to explain how is a constant term different than a variable term for an expression that represents a real-world situation.

The constant term is nothing but a term that is constant i.e., the value doesn’t change no matter what.

The variable term is the one which is varying based on different values.

As the name suggests, it is a variable one.

For example, in the expression, 5x + 2 = 0

The term 2 is a constant since it doesn’t change no matter what.

The term x is a variable it changes based on the input.

The value of the constant doesn’t change while that of the variable changes based on its input.

Question. Explain why we can have different values when evaluating an algebraic expression.

We need to explain why we can have different values when evaluating an algebraic expression.

When evaluating an algebraic expression, we may have some different values.

But the end result is always the same. This is because we can choose which operation we can do first.

For example, both addition and subtraction are commutative.

If we do addition first, the values will be different.

Or if we do subtraction first, the values will be different.

But the end result obtained by the expression will be the same.

We can choose which operation we can choose first. This is why we can have different values when evaluating an algebraic expression.

Question. Jaime’s older brother and his three friends want to split the cost of lunch. They also want to leave a 15-20% tip. Determine how much should each person pay.

Given that, Jaime’s older brother and his three friends want to split the cost of lunch. They also want to leave a 15−20 % tip.

We need to determine how much should each person pay.

The total bill amount is $78

Finding the tip amount for each percentage given, we get:

\(\frac{15}{100} \times 78\) = 11.7

\(\frac{20}{100} \times 78\) = 1.56

Thus, the amount including the tip is somewhere between 78 + 11.7  =  89.7 and 78  + 15.6  =  93.6

Splitting the bill amount for each person, thus we get

\(\frac{89.7}{4} \) = 22.425

\(\frac{93.6}{4} \) = 23.4

51 % of a number is 1 % more than half of the number.

Question. How do the percents show the relationship between quantities.

We need to how do the percents show the relationship between quantities.

The percentage is also denoted as the ratio.

The ratio is nothing but the comparison between two same or different quantities.

The first term of the percent is often compared to the number 100.

For example, 35 % of shirts are sold denotes that out of 100 shirts, 35 has been sold out.

We can often denote the percent using the sign “%”.

A percent is a ratio in which the first term is compared to 100. It is used for comparing two quantities. Percents are used to calculate the amount of one thing compared to the other. Percents can be used to compare very small or very large quantities as a fraction of 100.

Question. Gene stated that finding 25% of a number is the same as dividing the number by \(\frac{1}{4}\). We need to determine whether Gene is correct or not.

Given that, Gene stated that finding 25 % of a number is the same as dividing the number by \(\frac{1}{4}\).

We need to determine whether Gene is correct or not.

25 % of a number is denoted by

\(\frac{25}{100}\)=\(\frac{1}{4}\)

Thus, when we divide the number by \(\frac{1}{4}\), it is the same as finding 25 % of the number.

For example, if the number is 200.

Thus, \(\frac{25}{100}\) × 200  = 25  ×  2  =  50

Also, \(\frac{200}{4}\) = 50

= 50

The result is the same.

Therefore, Gene is correct.

Question. Explain the given numbers –\(0.\overline{3}\), 3.1414414441444 are rational numbers or not.

Given:

To explain the given numbers −\(0.\overline{3}\), 3.1414414441444 are rational numbers or not.

First off, we need to know what a rational number is

A rational number is any number that can be made by dividing 2 integers.

For example:

1.5 would be a rational number because 1.5=3/2 (3 and 2 are both integers) With that being said, let’s begin.

First off, let’s start with −0.3, let’s ask ourselves, can we make this number by dividing 2 integers?

The answer is yes, we can, by doing we have the equivalent of −0.3, So now we know it’s a rational number.

As for the second one, it can’t be a rational number because it can’t be made by dividing to integers, so the answer is:

−0.3 Is a rational number, but 3.14144144414444 is not.

-0.3 is a rational number, but 3.14144144414444 is not.

Reasoning:

In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers. A numerator p and a non-zero denominator q.

Given:

Total pitches = 384

Fastball used times = 240

To find:

What decimal should Juanita use to update her report?

Times of fastball used divided by the total pitches

\(\begin{array}{r}
3 8 4 \longdiv { 2 4 0 0 0 } \\
\frac{-2304}{960} \\
\frac{-768}{1920} \\
\frac{-1920}{0}
\end{array}\)

 

Therefore, Juanita should use the decimal 0.6205 to update her report.

Question. Justify that the pizza should fit to the square box.

Given:

To justify that the pizza should fit to the square box.

Answer: The pizza fit in the box

Explanation:

The diameter of the pizza is D = \(10 \frac{1}{3}\)

The wide of the square box is b = 10.38

Wkt

For the pizza to fit inside the box, it must be fulfilled that

D ≤ b

We need to convert the decimal to a fraction

\(10.38\left(\frac{100}{100}\right)=\frac{1038}{100}\)

= \(\frac{519}{50}\)

Convert \(10 \frac{1}{3}\) into improper fraction

\(10 \frac{1}{3}=\frac{31}{3}\)

Multiply the diameter of the pizza by 50 both numerator and denominator

\(\frac{31}{3} \times \frac{50}{50}=\frac{1550}{150}\)

Multiply the wide of the  box 3 in both numerator and denominator

\(\frac{519}{50} \times \frac{3}{3}\)

=\(\frac{1557}{150}\)

\(\frac{1557}{150}<\frac{1550}{150}\)

Therefore the pizza fit inside the box.

The pizza will fit inside the box.

Question. Marna thinks that about 35% of her mail is junk mail. She gets twice as much regular mail as junk mail. Verify whether the statement is correct or not.

Marna thinks that about 35% of her mail is junk mail.

She gets twice as much regular mail as junk mail.

We have to verify whether the statement is correct or not.

Marna gets twice as much regular mail as junk mail. So, the ratio of regular mail to junk mail is 2 is to 1.

Thus, if we consider the total mail as 100%, the ratio of both will be represented as

2:1=\(66.\overline{6}\) :\(33.\overline{3}\)

But, Marna thinks that she gets 35% mail as junk mail.

Which is not true, because actually, she gets \(33.\overline{3}\) of junk mail.

Therefore, she is not correct.

Marna’s statement is not correct because she gets around \(33.\overline{3}\) of junk mail and not 35%.

Question. Hypatia has read 13 chapters of a book. The book contains total 22 chapters. Find the percent of the chapters she has read.

It is given that Hypatia has read 13 chapters of a book.

The book contains total 22 chapters.

We have to find the percent of the chapters she has read.

The book has 22 chapters and Hypatia has read 13 of them.

The ratio of the chapters she has read will be \(\frac {13}{22}\).

So, the percent of chapters she has read will be

\(\frac{13}{22}=\frac{x}{100}\) \(\frac{13}{22} \cdot 100=\frac{x}{100} \cdot 100\) \(x=\frac{13}{22} \cdot 100\) \(x=59 . \overline{09}\)

The percentage of the chapters Hypatia has read is\(59 . \overline{09}\)

Question. A survey found that 27% of high school students and 94% of teachers and school employees drive to school. 

A survey found that 27% of high school students and 94% of teachers and school employees drive to school.

The ratio of students to employees is about 10 to 1.

Roger states that the number of students who drive to school is greater than the number of teachers and employees who drive to school.

We have to tell how Roger’s statement could be correct.

The information gained by the survey is that 27% of high school students and 94% of teachers and school employees drive to school.

The ratio of the students to employees is 10:1.

We express the ratio as 10:1 = 1000:100

We evaluate the percentages we get:

\(\frac{27}{100} \cdot 1000\) = 270

\(\frac{94}{100} \cdot 100\) = 94

Thus, if we count the teachers as employees then, Roger’s statement is right.

Roger’s statement is correct if we count the teachers as employees.

Question. Show proportional relationships between quantities and be used to solve problems.

We have to tell how can percents show proportional relationships between quantities and be used to solve problems.

When there is a relationship between two variables, and the ratio of the two variables are equivalent, then it is known as a proportional relationship.

Percents can be expressed in terms of fraction or ratios.

In order to check whether they show a proportional relationship or not, we can test if their ratios are equivalent or not.

Also, we can graph the quantities and if it comes out as a straight line passing through the origin, then there will be a proportional relationship.

In certain problems when we have the values as same constant multiples, then we can use the concept of proportional relationship to solve the problem.

The knowledge and applications of ratio and proportions can be used to solve problems.

Equivalent ratio or graph of percents can show their proportional relationship.

Given:

Ari walked \(2 \frac{3}{4}\) miles at a constant speed of \(2 \frac{1}{2}\)miles per hour. Beth walked \(1 \frac{3}{4}\)miles at a constant speed of \(1 \frac{1}{4}\) miles per hour. Cindy walked for 1 hour and 21 minutes at a constant speed of \(1 \frac{1}{8}\) miles per hour.

To find/solve

List the three people in order of the times they spent walking from least time to greatest time.

We should find unit rate of inches per feet.

Ari

\(\frac{1}{2 \frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{\frac{5}{2}}=\frac{1 \div \frac{5}{2}}{\frac{5}{2} \div \frac{5}{2}}=\frac{1 \cdot \frac{2}{5}}{\frac{5}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{5}}=\frac{\frac{2}{5}}{1}\)

Beth

\(\frac{1}{1 \frac{1}{4}}=\frac{1 \div \frac{5}{4}}{\frac{5}{4} \div \frac{5}{4}}=\frac{1 \cdot \frac{4}{5}}{\frac{5}{4} \cdot \frac{4}{5}}=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{1}\)

Cindy

\(\frac{1 \frac{1}{8}}{1}=\frac{\frac{9}{8} \cdot 1 \cdot \frac{21}{60}}{1.1 \frac{21}{60}}=\frac{\frac{9}{8} \cdot 1 \frac{7}{20}}{1 \frac{7}{20}}=\frac{27}{20}\)

 

From this, we find out that

1.1 < 1.35 < 1.4

We need to explain how are ratios, rates, and unit rates used to solve problems.

A rate is nothing but a measurement between two different quantities.

A ratio is a measurement between two same quantities.

A unit rate is a rate at which one quantity differs per unit of another quantity.

Examples are:

Rate –

Distance \(=\frac{\text { Speed }}{\text { Time }}\)

Here, speed and time are of different quantities. Ratio – \(\frac{x}{y}\)


Unit rate –

Distance \(=\frac{50 \text { miles }}{2 \text { hour }}\)

= 25 miles per hour

Here, 25 miles per hour is the unit rate.

The ratios, rates, and unit rates are used to solve problems in order to compare varying quantities by determining the number of units of one quantity per one unit of another quantity.

Question. Company A has 12 tigers for $33.24. Company B has 6 tigers for $44.80 and Company C 15 tigers for $41.10. Find the cost per tiger for all the companies.

Given:

Company A: 12 tigers for $33.24.

Company B: 16 tigers for $44.80.

Company C: 15 tigers for $41.10.

We first find the cost per tiger for all the companies:

Company A

Cost = \(\frac{33.24}{12}\)

Cost = 2.77

The cost per tiger for Company A is $2.77.

Company B

Cost = \(\frac{44.80}{16}\)

Cost = 2.8

The cost per tiger for Company B is $2.80.

Company C

Cost = \(\frac{41.10}{15}\)

Cost = 2.74

The cost per tiger for Company C is $2.74.

Company C has the lowest cost per tiger.

Therefore, Company C has the lowest cost per tiger.

Given:

Company C  15 tigers for $41.10.

The cost per tiger for Company C is $2.74.

The students plan to sell the tigers for $5 each.

We know that the lowest cost per tiger is $2.74 for company C.

The students sell the mascots according to $5.

Therefore the profit that the students will make for each tiger they sell is:

profit  =  5−2.74

profit  =  2.26

Therefore, the students will obtain the profit of $2.26 for each tiger they sell.

Question. A contractor purchases 7 dozen pairs of padded work gloves for $103.32. He incorrectly calculates the unit price at $14.76 per pair. Find the cost of 1 unit pair of padded work gloves.

Given:

A contractor purchases 7 dozen pairs of padded work gloves for $103.32.

He incorrectly calculates the unit price at $14.76 per pair.

To find the cost of 1 unit pair of padded work gloves, we divide $103.32 by 84

Cost = \(\frac{103.32}{84}\)

Cost  =  1.23

Therefore, the cost of 1 unit pair of padded work gloves is $1.23.

Therefore, the unit price is $1.23.

Given:

A contractor purchases 7 dozen pairs of padded work gloves for $103.32.

He incorrectly calculates the unit price at $14.76 per pair.

To find the cost of 1 unit pair of padded work gloves, we divide $103.32 by 84

Cost = \(\frac{103.32}{84}\)

Cost = 1.23

Therefore, the cost of 1 unit pair of padded work gloves is $1.23.

He should have divided the total price by 84 since he bought 7 dozen pairs of gloves and 1 dozen equals to 12 units.

Therefore, the error the contractor was likely to make is total number of units. He should remember that there are 84 units and 7 dozen pair of gloves.

Question. A warehouse store sells 5.5-ounce cans of tuna in packages of 6 that cost $9.24. The store also sells 6.5 ounces cans of the same tuna in packages of 3 cans for $4.68. Find the cost of 1 ounce for each package.

Given:

A warehouse store sells 5.5-ounce cans of tuna in packages of 6 that cost $9.24.

The store also sells 6.5 ounces cans of the same tuna in packages of 3 cans for $4.68.

It also sells 3.5-ounce cans in packages of 4 cans for $4.48.

We find the cost of 1 ounce for each package:

Package 1: Cost = 9.24/(5.5 × 5) ​= 9.24/27.5 = 0.33​

Package 2: Cost = 4.68/(6.5 × 3) ​= 4.68/19.5 = 0.24​

Package 3: Cost = 4.48/(3.5 × 4)​ = 4.48/14 = 0.32​

We see that package 3 has the lowest cost per ounce of tuna that is $0.32.

Therefore, package 3 which cost $0.32 per ounce has the lowest cost per ounce of tuna.

Question. Solve the given two ratios \(\frac{2 \text { dogs }}{3 \text { cats }}=\frac{2}{3}\) \(\frac{10 \text { dogs }}{15 \text { cats }}=\frac{10}{15}\)

Solve the given two ratios, and we get

\(\frac{2 \text { dogs }}{3 \text { cats }}=\frac{2}{3}\) \(\frac{10 \text { dogs }}{15 \text { cats }}=\frac{10}{15}\)

=\(\frac{2}{3}\)

Here, we can see that both ratios result in the same answer.

Thus, the given ratios are equivalent to each other.

Thus, they are equivalent ratios.

\(\frac{2 \text { dogs }}{3 \text { cats }}\) and \(\frac{10 \text { dogs }}{15 \text { cats }}\) are an example of equivalent ratios.

The rate comes under the category of ratios.

But all ratios cannot be described as rates.

This is because the ratio deals with the same or different quantities.

While the rate deals with two different quantities.

For example, if we compare speed and distance together, the fraction is said to be the rate. Since the unit of both of them are different.

A rate is a type of ratio that has both terms expressed in different units.

A fraction is said to be the comparison of two quantities.

If we have a fraction in the fraction itself, it is then said to be a complex fraction.

A complex fraction has a fraction in the numerator, denominator, or in both of them.

For example: \(\frac{5}{\frac{12}{7}}\), \(\frac{\frac{8}{7}}{4}\) are some of the examples of the complex fractions.

Envision Math Accelerated Grade 7 Volume 1 Student Edition Chapter 3 Analyze And Use Proportional Relationships

Finding the rate of the given data

\(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{12}{4}\) = 3

\(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{15}{5}\) = 3

\(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{18}{6}\) = 3

\(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{21}{7}\) = 3

\(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{24}{8}\) = 3

Therefore, the ratio is \(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{3}{1}\)

Thus, the equation of the pattern in the table will be

\(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{3}{1}\)

y = 3x

The equation that represents the pattern in the table will be  y = 3x
