Slide 7 / 64 Slide 8 / 64 Units Word Problems As with all word problems, we will follow the 4 step process: You have probably seen a word problem like the following: Step 1 - Read the problem thoroughly, understand what it is they want you to find out. While traveling in England, Sonia noticed that the price of gas was 1. 4 pounds (£) per liter. She wondered how that compared Step 2 - Plan how you will solve the problem. to the price of gas in Atlanta, where she lives. On that day, the exchange rate was £1 = $1. 56. Set up and evaluate a conversion expression to find the equivalent price in dollars per Step 3 - Solve it! gallon. Use the conversion factor 1 L = 0. 26 gal. Step 4 - Check your answer. Is it reasonable, does it make sense?

She wondered how that compared to the price of gas pounds (£) per liter. She wondered how that compared to the price of gas in Atlanta, where she lives. On that day, the exchange rate was £1 = $1. 56. in Atlanta, where she lives. On that day, the exchange rate was £1 = $1. 56. Set up and evaluate a conversion expression to find the equivalent price in Set up and evaluate a conversion expression to find the equivalent price in dollars per gallon. Use the conversion factor 1 L = 0. 26 gal. dollars per gallon. Use the conversion factor 1 L = 0. 26 gal. Sonia wants to find out how the price of gas compares from England We will also need to convert the currency since England uses to the U.S. pounds and the U.S. uses dollars so we can use the In order to find this out we will need to convert units. ratio of . England uses metric measurement. The US uses a system called the Customary System. (Outside of the US it is referred to as the US Measurement System).

Use the conversion factor 1 L = 0. 26 gal. dollars per gallon. Use the conversion factor 1 L = 0. 26 gal. Remember, we want to change to dollars per gallon but that Use a proportion to solve this problem. means we have to change both the top and the bottom. First we have to create a ratio out of our initial value. That also means we need two more ratios. 1L $1.56 and £1.4 £1 .26gal 1L

While traveling in England, Sonia noticed that the price of gas was 1. 4 pounds (£) per liter. She wondered how that compared to the price of gas A cupcake shop sells an average of 14 dozen cupcakes a day to in Atlanta, where she lives. On that day, the exchange rate was £1 = $1. 56. about 50 customers What is their average sales rate, in cupcakes Set up and evaluate a conversion expression to find the equivalent price in per customer? dollars per gallon. Use the conversion factor 1 L = 0. 26 gal. **HINT: There are 12 units in a dozen. $8.40 per gallon = 12 x14 168 x = = 3.36 50 1 X 50 Does your answer make sense? Liters are a much smaller = 3.36 cupcakes per customer quantity than gallons, .26 to be exact. The exchange rate of the pound is £1 for every $1.56, so it does make sense that the price per gallon should be more than it is per liter. About 4 times more.

Another important skill with units is being able to graph a Click on the house below situation with the appropriate scale and labels. On the following slides, we will look at some real life examples and examine the thought process behind creating graphs that are correct and meaningful.

"How high do you think he was at the top of the stairs? How did you estimate that elevation?" We need to come up with a scale and we need to know where to start our graph. "Were there intervals of time when his elevation wasn't Click to reveal. changing? Was he still moving?" Let's use a scale of 0 to 40 feet with intervals of 10 feet for the y Click on the house below axis. What about the x axis? That should be the time it took him to come down the stairs.
