Your teacher will assign your group one of these situations. Create a visual display about your situation that includes:
An equation that represents your situation
What your variable and each term in the equation represent
How the operations in the equation represent the relationships in the story
How you use inverses to solve for the unknown quantity
The solution to your equation

16.1: Don't Solve It

Is the solution positive or negative?

16.2: Warmer or Colder than Before?

For each situation,

Find two equations that could represent the situation from the bank of equations. (Some equations will not be used.)
Explain what the variable v represents in the situation.
Determine the value of the variable that makes the equation true, and explain your reasoning.

Bank of equations:

Between 6 a.m. and noon, the temperature rose 12 degrees Fahrenheit to 4 degrees Fahrenheit.

At midnight the temperature was -6 degrees. By 4 a.m. the temperature had fallen to -16 degrees.

The temperature is 0 degrees at midnight and dropping 3 degrees per hour. The temperature is -6 degrees at a certain time.

The temperature is 0 degrees at midnight and dropping 3 degrees per hour. The temperature is 9 degrees at a certain time.

Diego and Elena are 2 miles apart and begin walking towards each other. Diego walks at a rate of 3.7 miles per hour and Elena walks 4.3 miles per hour. While they are walking, Elena's dog runs back and forth between the two of them, at a rate of 6 miles per hour. Assuming the dog does not lose any time in turning around, how far has the dog run by the time Diego and Elena reach each other?

	Positive	Negative
(-8.7)(1.4)=a
-8.7b=1.4
-8.7+c=-1.4
8.7-d=-1.4

	Positive	Negative
(-8.7)(1.4)=a
