PSABM6VZ - Student Facing Task---Acc7.5 Lesson 3 Comparing Proportional Relationships (8.EE.B, 8.EE.B.5)
Part A)

The equation  could represent a variety of different situations.

Write a description of a situation represented by this equation. Decide what quantities x and y represent in your situation.

Part B)

Make a table and a graph that represent the situation.

Create and fill in the table using the table button

Draw your graph on paper, take a picture, and upload it using the image upload icon

If you do not have the ability to upload an image of your work type "Graph is on paper."

Part A)

Elena and Jada each make money by helping out their neighbors.

Elena babysits. Her earnings are given by the equation y=8.40x, where x represents how many hours she works and y represents how much money she earns.

Jada earns $7 per hour mowing her neighbors' lawns. Who makes more money after working 12 hours? Copied for free from openupresources.org Select one: Part B) How much more do they make? Do not include dollars ($) in your answer.

Type your answer below as a number (example: 5, 3.1, 4 1/2, or 3/2):
Part C)

Explain how you know.

Part D)

What is the rate of change for each situation and what does it mean?

Part E)

How long would it take each person to earn $150? Explain or show your reasoning. Type your answer below: Part A) Clare and Han have summer jobs stuffing envelopes for two different companies. Han earns$15 for every 300 envelopes he finishes.

Clare's earnings can be seen in the table.

 Number of Envelopes Money in Dollars 400 40 900 90

By creating a graph, show how much money each person makes after stuffing 1,500 envelopes.

Part F)

Explain or show your reasoning.

Part A)

Tyler plans to start a lemonade stand and is trying to perfect his recipe for lemonade. He wants to make sure the recipe doesn't use too much lemonade mix (lemon juice and sugar) but still tastes good.

Lemonade Recipe 1 is given by the equation y=4x where x represents the amount of lemonade mix in cups and y represents the amount of cups in water.

Lemonade Recipe 2 is given in the table.

 Lemonade Mix (Cups) Water (Cups) 10 50 13 65 21 105

If Tyler had 16 cups of lemonade mix, how many cups of water would he need for each recipe?

How many cups does he need for Lemonade Recipe 1?

Do not include units (cups of water) in your answer.
