Page 16 Exercise 1 Answer

Given Nori, her friend, and her mother bought a baseball game ticket package. The package includes good seats, lunch, and a chance to get autographs from players. The total cost for the three of them is $375.

The objective is to find an equation of that shows how much each of them still owes and the other question to consider is have the problem been solved before.

The amount that each still owes can be found by defining a variable to unknown and use the known quantities.

Find the equation of that each owes.

Nori, her friend, and her mother bought a baseball game ticket package.

The package includes good seats, lunch, and a chance to get autographs from players.

The total cost for the three of them is $375.

They each paid a $50 deposit.

Total cost is$375

Each paid $50 deposit.

Define a variable.
​x  =  $50
y  =  $50
z  =  $50

Total amount paid as deposit is,

x + y + z = $50 + $50 + $50

= $150

Find the total amount that has to be pay.

Total cost of the ticket is$375

= $375 − $150

=$225

Find the amount that each still owes.

Total amount they owe divided by 3.

= $225 ÷ 3

Page 16 Exercise 1 Answer
= $75

The amount that each still owes is $75.

I have solved similar problems before.

The final answer is that each still owes $75 and the similar problem has been solved before.

Check whether the answer make sense.

Nori, her friend, and her mother bought a baseball game ticket package. The package includes good seats, lunch, and a chance to get autographs from players. The total cost for the three of them is $375.

The answer found is that the amount that each still owes is $75.

Yes, it makes send because total amount paid is $375.

For each of them the price of the ticket will be $150

Subtract total amount paid minus total deposit amount.

= $375 − $150

= $225

Divide the amount into three,

= $ 225÷3

Page 18 Exercise 2 Answer

Given Michael’s class is conducting an experiment by tossing a coin. Tails has come up 5 times in a row. That means the next toss will land heads up.

The objective is to find what arguments can be present to defend the conjecture.

The conjecture can be found using the information provided.

Find what arguments can be present to defend the conjecture.

Michael’s class is conducting an experiment by tossing a coin.

The table below shows the results of the last tosses.

Page 18 Exercise 2 Answer

The two outcomes of the toss of a coin are heads or tails. For any individual toss of the coin, the outcome will be either heads o. tails. The two outcomes (heads or tails) are therefore mutually exclusive; if the coin comes up heads on a single toss, it cannot come up tails on the same toss.

The arguments that can be present to defend the conjecture is,

A coin can land on heads or tails, so there are two equally likely outcomes.

Because there may be either head or tail.

The arguments that can be present to defend the conjecture is,

A coin can land on heads or tails, so there are two equally likely outcomes.
