A chef bought $17.01 worth of ribs and chicken. Ribs cost 1.89 per pound and chicken costs 0.90 per pound. The equation 0.9c+1.89r=17.01 represents the relationship between the quantities in this situation.

Show that each of the following equations is equivalent to 0.9c+1.89r=17.01. Then, explain when it might be helpful to write the equation in these forms.

To grow properly, each tomato plant needs 1.5 square feet of soil and each broccoli plant needs 2.25 square feet of soil. The graph shows the different combinations of broccoli and tomato plants in an 18 square foot plot of soil.
Match each point to the statement that describes it.

		Only broccoli was planted, but the plot is fully used and all plants can grow properly.
		After 3 tomato plants and 2 broccoli plants were planted, there is still extra space in the plot.
		The soil is fully used when 6 tomato plants and 4 broccoli plants are planted
		With 4 tomato plants and 6 broccoli plants planted, the plot is overcrowded.

Han is solving an equation. He took steps that are acceptable but ended up with equations that are clearly not true.
What can Han conclude as a result of these acceptable steps?

x=5 is a solution to the equation 5x+6=7x+5-2x.

Any value of  can make the equation 5x+6=7x+5-2x true.

x=6 is a solution to the equation 5x+6=7x+5-2x.

There’s no value of x that can make the equation 5x+6=7x+5-2x true.
