\nYouth Group Trip<\/p>\n
Exercise 1.
\nThe youth group is going on a trip to an amusement park in another part of the state. The trip costs each group member $150, which includes $85 for the hotel and two one – day combination entrance and meal plan passes.
\na. Write an equation representing the cost of the trip. Let P be the cost of the park pass.
\nAnswer:
\n85 + 2P = 150<\/p>\n
b. Solve the equation algebraically to find the cost of the park pass. Then write the reason that justifies each step using if – then statements.
\nAnswer:
\nIf: 85 + 2P = 150,
\nThen: 85 – 85 + 2P = 150 – 85 Subtraction property of equality for the additive inverse of 85
\nIf: 0 + 2P = 65
\nThen: 2P = 65 Additive identity
\nIf: 2P = 65
\nThen: (\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\))2P = (\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\))65 Multiplication property of equality using the multiplicative inverse of 2
\nIf: 1P = 32.5
\nThen: P = 32.5 Multiplicative identity
\nThe park pass costs $32.50.<\/p>\n
c. Model the problem using a tape diagram to check your work.
\nAnswer:
\n150 – 85 = 65
\n65\u00f72 = 32.50
\n<\/p>\n
Suppose you want to buy your favorite ice cream bar while at the amusement park, and it costs $2.89. If you purchase the ice cream bar and 3 bottles of water, pay with a $10 bill, and receive no change, then how much did each bottle of water cost?<\/p>\n
d. Write an equation to model this situation.
\nAnswer:
\nW: the cost of one bottle of water
\n2.89 + 3W = 10<\/p>\n
e. Solve the equation to determine the cost of one water bottle. Then write the reason that justifies each step using if – then statements.
\nAnswer:
\nIf: 2.89 + 3W = 10
\nThen: 2.89 – 2 .89 + 3W = 10 – 2.89 Subtraction property of equality for the additive inverse of 2.89
\nIf: 0 + 3W = 7.11
\nThen: 3W = 7.11 Additive identity
\nIf: 3W = 7.11
\nThen: \\(\\frac{1}{3}\\) (3W) = \\(\\frac{1}{3}\\) (7.11) Multiplication property of equality using the multiplicative inverse of 3
\nIf: 1W = 2.37
\nThen: W = 2.37 Multiplicative identity<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nWeekly Allowance
\nCharlotte receives a weekly allowance from her parents. She spent half of this week\u2019s allowance at the movies but earned an additional $4 for performing extra chores. If she did not spend any additional money and finished the week with $12, what is Charlotte\u2019s weekly allowance?
\na. Write an equation that can be used to find the original amount of Charlotte\u2019s weekly allowance. Let A be the value of Charlotte\u2019s original weekly allowance.
\nAnswer:
\n\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A + 4 = 12<\/p>\n
b. Solve the equation to find the original amount of allowance. Then write the reason that justifies each step using if – then statements.
\nAnswer:
\nIf: \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A + 4 = 12
\nThen: \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A + 4 – 4 = 12 – 4 Subtraction property of equality for the additive inverse of 4
\nIf: \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A + 0 = 8
\nThen: \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A = 8 Additive identity
\nIf : \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A = 8
\nThen: (2) \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) A = (2)8 Multiplication property of equality using the multiplicative inverse of \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\)
\nIf: 1A = 16
\nThen: A = 16 Multiplicative identity
\nThe original allowance was $16.<\/p>\n
c. Explain your answer in the context of this problem.
\nAnswer:
\nCharlotte\u2019s weekly allowance is $16.<\/p>\n
d. Charlotte\u2019s goal is to save $100 for her beach trip at the end of the summer. Use the amount of weekly allowance you found in part (c) to write an equation to determine the number of weeks that Charlotte must work to meet her goal. Let w represent the number of weeks.
\nAnswer:
\n16 w = 100
\n(\\(\\frac{1}{16}\\))16w = (\\(\\frac{1}{16}\\))100
\n1w = 6.25
\nw = 6.25<\/p>\n
e. In looking at your answer to part (d) and based on the story above, do you think it will take Charlotte that many weeks to meet her goal? Why or why not?
\nAnswer:
\nCharlotte needs more than 6 weeks\u2019 allowance, so she will need to save 7 weeks\u2019 allowance (and not spend any of it). There are 10\u201312 weeks in the summer; so, yes, she can do it.<\/p>\n
Exercise 3.
\nTravel Baseball Team
\nAllen is very excited about joining a travel baseball team for the fall season. He wants to determine how much money he should save to pay for the expenses related to this new team. Players are required to pay for uniforms, travel expenses, and meals.
\na. If Allen buys 4 uniform shirts at one time, he gets a $10.00 discount so that the total cost of 4 shirts would be $44. Write an algebraic equation that represents the regular price of one shirt. Solve the equation. Write the reason that justifies each step using if – then statements.
\nAnswer:
\ns: the cost of one shirt
\nIf: 4s – 10 = 44
\nThen: 4s – 10 + 10 = 44 + 10 Addition property of equality using the additive inverse of – 10
\nIf: 4s + 0 = 54
\nThen: 4s = 54 Additive identity
\nIf: 4s = 54
\nThen: (\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\))4s = (\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\))54 Multiplication property of equality using multiplicative inverse of 4
\nIf: 1s = 13.50
\nThen: s = 13.50 Multiplicative identity<\/p>\n
b. What is the cost of one shirt without the discount?
\nAnswer:
\nThe cost of one shirt is $13.50.<\/p>\n
c. What is the cost of one shirt with the discount?
\nAnswer:
\n4s = 44
\n(\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\))4s = (\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\))44
\n1s = 11
\ns = 11
\nThe cost of one shirt with the discount is $11.00.<\/p>\n
d. How much more do you pay per shirt if you buy them one at a time (rather than in bulk)?
\nAnswer:
\n13.50 – 11.00 = 2.50
\nOne shirt costs $11 if you buy them in bulk. So, Allen would pay $2.50 more per shirt if he bought them one at a time.<\/p>\n
Allen\u2019s team was also required to buy two pairs of uniform pants and two baseball caps, which total $68. A pair of pants costs $12 more than a baseball cap.<\/p>\n
e. Write an equation that models this situation. Let c represent the cost of a baseball cap.
\nAnswer:
\n2(cap + 1 pair of pants) = 68
\n2(c + c + 12) = 68 or 2 ( 2c + 12) = 68 or 4c + 24 = 68<\/p>\n
f. Solve the equation algebraically to find the cost of a baseball cap. Write the reason that justifies each step using if – then statements.
\nAnswer:
\nIf: 2 (2 c + 12) = 68
\nThen: (\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\))(2 )(2 c + 12) = (\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\))68 Multiplication property of equality using the multiplicative inverse of 2
\nIf: 1(2c + 12) = 34
\nThen: 2c + 12 = 34 Multiplicative identity
\nIf: 2c + 12 = 34
\nThen: 2c + 12 – 12 = 34 – 12 Subtraction property of equality for the additive inverse of 12
\nIf: 2c + 0 = 22
\nThen: 2c = 22 Additive identity
\nIf: 2c = 22
\nThen: (\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\))2c = (\\(\\frac{1}{2}\\))22 Multiplication property of equality using the multiplicative inverse of 2
