[size=150]Solve [math](x-1)^2=16[/math]. Explain or show your reasoning.[/size]
[size=150]Here is one way to solve the equation [math]\frac{5}{9}y^2=5[/math]. [/size][br][br][math]\begin{align}\frac59y^2 &= 5 &\quad &\text{Original equation}\\5y^2&=45 &\quad &\text{Step 1} \\\\y^2&=9 &\quad& \text{Step 2} \\\\y=3 \qquad &\text{or} \qquad y=\text-3 &\quad& \text{Step 3} \end{align}[/math][br][br]Explain what is done in each step.
[size=150]Diego and Jada are working together to solve the quadratic equation [math]\left(x-2\right)^2=100[/math].[/size][br][size=150][br]Diego solves the equation by dividing each side of the equation by 2 and then adding 2 to each side. [br]He writes:[br][math]\left(x-2\right)=50[/math][br][math]x=52[/math][br][br]Jada asks Diego why he divides each side by 2 and he says, “I want to find a number that equals 100 when multiplied by itself. That number is half of 100.”[/size][br][br]What mistake is Diego making?
If you were Jada, what could you say to Diego to help him realize his mistake?[br]
[size=150]As part of a publicity stunt (an event designed to draw attention), a TV host drops a watermelon from the top of a tall building. The height of the watermelon [math]t[/math] seconds after it is dropped is given by the function [math]h\left(t\right)=850-16t^2[/math], where [math]h[/math] is in feet.[/size][br][br]Find [math]h\left(4\right)[/math]. Explain what this value means in this situation.[br]
Find [math]h\left(0\right)[/math]. What does this value tell us about the situation?[br]
Is the watermelon still in the air 8 seconds after it is dropped? Explain how you know.[br]
[size=150]A zoo offers unlimited drink refills to visitors who purchase its souvenir cup. The cup and the first fill cost $10, and refills after that are $2 each. The expression [math]10+2r[/math] represents the total cost of the cup and [math]r[/math] refills.[/size][br][br]A family visited the zoo several times over a summer. That summer, they paid $30 for one cup and multiple refills. How many refills did they buy?[br]
[size=150][size=100]A visitor has $18 to spend on drinks at the zoo today and buys a souvenir cup. How many refills can they afford during the vis[/size][/size][size=100]it?[br][/size]
Another visitor spent $10 on this deal. Did they buy any refills? Explain how you know.[br]
