Instructions Sarah’s neighbor offers to pay her $5 for every shark tooth she finds on the beach. After collecting only three shark’s teeth, Sarah decides to share the opportunity with her friend John. Sarah can find shark teeth twice as fast as John, but she can earn even more money with his help.

Sarah can use the expression 5(2j + 3 + j) to represent the amount of money she can earn.

Part 1: Writing Expressions
Write an expression that looks like Sarah’s expression: 5(2j + 3 + j). Replace the coefficients so that your expression is not equivalent. You may use any number that you choose to replace the coefficients. Be sure to leave the variables the same. For example, 8(3j + 7 + 3j) looks like Sarah’s expression but is not equivalent.

Translate the algebraic expression you created in Question 1 to a verbal expression.

Part 2: Writing Equivalent Expressions
You will now use mathematical properties to create two expressions that are equivalent to the expression you created in Question 1. Make sure you show all steps in your work.

Use either the commutative property or combine like terms to create an equivalent expression.

Use the distributive property to create an equivalent expression.

Pick a number from 1 to 10. Use that number to verify your three expressions (the original, the one from 3a, and the one from 3b) are equivalent by substituting it into each expression. Show all your work for complete credit.

Part 3: Finish the Story
Write a few sentences to end Sarah’s story. How many shark teeth did she find? How many shark teeth did John find? How much money did Sarah earn?
Choose a method to present your assignment. You may submit your work in a Word Document or you may choose to develop a PowerPoint presentation or video recording of yourself. Use your creativity! Make sure to include the information from all three parts in your Word Document or presentation

Answer from: jamaiciaw6

Shark teeth from present times that are still white are extremely rare, as there are so many more fossilized teeth from the millions of years of sharks' existence (in thousands of discovered teeth, Gale has only found three from the present day).

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer from: Quest

$a_1 = 1$ , and

$a_{n+1} = a_n + (n + 1)$ for $n \ge 1$

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote $a_1 = 1$ , $a_2 = 3$ , $a_3 = 6$ , so that we can call

1 the 1st term, 3 the 2nd term, 6 the 3rd term,etc.

note the following:

from the 1st term (1) to the 2nd term (3), we go up by 2,from the 2nd term (3) to the 3rd term (6), we go up by 3from the 3rd term (6) to the 4th term (10), we go up by 4, andfrom the 4th term (10) to the 5th term (15), we go up by 5.

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from $a_1 = 1$ , to get to $a_2 = 3$ , we add $2(=1+1)$

from $a_2 = 3$ , to get to $a_3 = 6$ , we add $3 (=2+1)$

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

$a_1 = 1$ , and $a_{n+1} = a_n +(n + 1)$ for $n \ge 1$

Answer from: Quest

the speed is $135$ miles per hour > is false

step-by-step explanation:

we know that

a relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

in a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

the graph shown in the figure represent a direct variation

the slope of the line represent the speed

$y/x=k$

for the point $(1.5,90)$

substitute the values of x and y

$k=90/1.5=60\ miles/hour$

the linear equation is equal to

$y=60x$

statements

case a) it takes $2$ hours to go $120$ miles

the statement is true

because

substitute

for $x=2$

find the value of y in the linear equation

$y=60(2)=120\ miles$ > is correct

case b) the speed is $135$ miles per hour

the statement is false

because the speed is $60\ miles/hour$

case c) the unit rate for the trip is $60\ miles/hour$

the statement is true

because the speed is equal to the slope of the linear equation

case d) it took $20$ minutes to go the first $20$ miles

the statement is true

because

substitute

for $x=20\ minutes=(1/3)\ hour$

find the value of y in the linear equation

$y=60(1/3)=20\ miles$ > is correct
