Activity 14: Problem Solving involving Rates

YOUR TASK
In this task, you will explore two different contexts involving rates. Your goal is to solve problems that require calculating the rate, distance, or time based on the given data. Enter your answers in the INPUT BOXES, and a checkmark will appear for correct responses.[br][br]Additionally, you will encounter problems that require comparing different rates. For these, select the correct answer by clicking the corresponding BUTTON. A checkmark will indicate if your choice is correct.[br][br]This GeoGebra applet presents two scenarios involving rates of travel. You will solve problems related to calculating rates or predicting related quantities such as distance and time. Input your answers in the provided fields for immediate feedback.[br][br]The applet also includes questions for comparing rates across different contexts. Click the appropriate BUTTON for your answer, and a checkmark will confirm if you are correct.
REFLECTION QUESTION
What did you learn about the relationships between distance, time, and speed while solving these problems? Did you find anything difficult, and how did you handle it?[br][br]
SYTHESIS QUESTION
How do the rates of travel in the two scenarios you explored compare? Give an example of how information from one scenario could help you make a prediction in the other.
