Thanksgiving Dinner
Storyboard Text
- I wonder what my mom is going to make for thanksgiving!
- Hmm, 3 + x = 7, to do a problem like this I can use inverse relationships and the subtraction Property of Equality to solve! 3 + x - 3 = 7 - 3. If this is right, x = 4! I can help you get those courses!
- Hi honey, I only have 3 courses ready for Thanksgiving, but I need to have a total of 7 courses. Can you help?
- This turkey is $1 per pound, and I have a total of $15 dollars to spend per course. I will take 5 pounds, so that leaves me with $10. Each celery stalk is $2 and I want to spend $8. The equation 2x = 8 will help me find my answer, and I can use the division Property of Equality to solve! 2x/2 = 8/2. If this is right, x = 4. Let me get four celery stalks with the turkey.
- Oh no! My car ran out of gas. Let me go to the gas station right now.
- Each gallon is $4, and I have $30 to spend. I will get 3 gallons, so it will be 3x4, but I do not know if that is less or more than $30. 4 x 3 = 12, and the inequality 12 < 30 represents this problem. I also saw a fish store next door, so that will be the next course.
- The fish on the left and the right seem to be different. The fish on the right's price is an independent variable, and the amount of sauce you get with your fish depends on how much you buy. The fish on the left's price is an dependent variable because it depends on how much you buy. I rather buy the fish on the left.
