Multiple Choice

A landscaping company is delivering crushed stone to a construction site. The table shows the total weight in pounds, W, of n loads of crushed stone.

Which equation could represent the total weight, in pounds, for n loads of crushed stone?

• $W=\frac{6000}{n}$

• $A=\frac{2000}{m}$

• $A=2000m$

• $A=2000-m$

Multiple Choice

Members of the band sold juice and popcorn at a college football game to raise money for an upcoming trip. The band raised $2,000. The amount raised is divided equally among the m members of the band.

Which equation represents the amount, A, each member receives?

• $A=\frac{m}{2000}$

• $A=\frac{2000}{m}$

• $A=2000m$

• $A=2000-m$

• $t=48C$

• $C=48t$

• $t=\frac{C}{48}$

• $C=\frac{t}{48}$

Multiple Choice

The volume of dry goods, like apples or peaches, can be measured usings bushels, pecks, and quarts. A bushel contains 4 pecks, and a peck contains 8 quarts.

What is the relationship between number of bushels, b, and the number of quarts, q? If you get stuck, try creating a table.

• q=b

• q=8b

• q=4b

• q=32b

Multiple Select

Priya is hosting a poetry club meeting this week and plans to have fruit punch and cheese for the meeting. She is preparing 8 ounces of fruit punch per person and 2 ounces of cheese per person. Including herself, there are 12 people in the club.

A package of cheese contains 16 ounces and costs $3.99. A one-gallon jug of fruit punch contains 128 ounces and costs $2.50. Let p represent number of people in the club, f represent the ounces of fruit punch, c represent the ounces of cheese, and b represent Priya's budget in dollars.

Select all of the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation.

•  $f=8\cdot12$  

•  $c=2\cdot3.99$  

•  $2\cdot3.99+2.50=b$  

•  $2p=c$  

•  $8f+2c=b$  

Multiple Choice

The density of an object can be found by taking its mass and dividing by its volume.

Write an equation to represent the relationship between the three quantities (density, mass, and volume) in each situation. Let the density, D, be measured in grams/cubic centimeters (or g/cm3).

The mass is 500 grams and the volume is 40 cubic centimeters.

• $D=\frac{500}{40}$

• $D=500\cdot40$

• $D=\frac{40}{500}$

• $D=\frac{50}{40}$

Multiple Choice

The density of an object can be found by taking its mass and dividing by its volume.

Write an equation to represent the relationship between the three quantities (density, mass, and volume) in each situation. Let the density, D, be measured in grams/cubic centimeters (or g/cm3).

The mass is 125 grams and the volume is v cubic centimeters.

•  $D=\frac{V}{125}$ 

•  $D=125\cdot v$ 

•  $D=\frac{125}{v}$ 

•  $D=\frac{50}{40}$ 

Multiple Choice

The density of an object can be found by taking its mass and dividing by its volume.

Write an equation to represent the relationship between the three quantities (density, mass, and volume) in each situation. Let the density, D, be measured in grams/cubic centimeters (or g/cm3).

The mass is m grams and the volume is v cubic centimeters.

•  $D=\frac{m}{v}$ 

•  $V=m\cdot d$ 

•  $D=V\cdot m$ 

•  $D=\frac{50}{40}$ 

Multiple Choice

The density of an object can be found by taking its mass and dividing by its volume.

Write an equation to represent the relationship between the three quantities (density, mass, and volume) in each situation. Let the density, D, be measured in grams/cubic centimeters (or g/cm3).

The volume is 1.4 cubic centimeters and the density is 80 grams per cubic centimeter.

•  $D=\frac{1.4}{80}$ 

•  $80=\frac{m}{1.4}$ 

•  $D=\frac{80\cdot1.4}{v}$ 

•  $D=1.4\cdot80$
