Question

The graph shows the number of points Derek scored during his first five basketball games. 8. Write a multiplication equation and a division equation that compare the number of points Derek scored during Game 1 (x) to the number of points Derek scored during Game 4 (v) Derek's Scores 20 18 16 14 E 12 2 10 9. Stretch Your Thinking There will be 138 people at a fundraising auction. Each table seats six. An additional 3 tables are needed to display the auction items. What is the minimum number of tables that are needed for the fundraiser? Which equation cannot be used to answer this question? Explain Game 138(6+3)-t (138 6) +3t

Explanation / Answer

8. As given point scored in Game 1 is X and point scored in Game 5 is Y. Now, Given  

X = 6

Y = 12

in Multiplication form equation will be

2X = Y

in Division form equation will be

X = Y/2

9. First equation 138 % (6+3) = t cann't be used, as it is comparing auction table also along with number of person on each table.

Correct equation for finding number of table would be

(138 % 6 ) + 3 = t

This will give number of tables where 6 person will seat on each table and then 3 additional table for auction item.

so, minimum number of table required is

23 + 3 = 26 tables
