2. Jenna’s class is leaving on a field trip at 8:30 a.m. The cost is $3.59 for each student. How much will it cost for 27 students to go on the trip?

Equations and Variables What is an equation?


2+3=5, 3x8+10=34, a+b=c, 2xd+e=3f


2+3=5, 3x8+10=34, a+b=c, 2xd+e=3f

What is a variable?


2+3=5, 3x8+10=34, a+b=c, 2xd+e=3f

What is a variable?

A value that varies or changes.

Variables For example: What numbers can you

substitute for ‘a’ to get 10 below?

2 x a = 10

Variables For example: What numbers can you

substitute for ‘g’ to get 10 below?

6 + g = 10

Equations

Equations Barcelona, Spain 30 C

Santiago, Chile 23 C

Moscow, Russia -5 C

Toronto, Canada 0 C

Equations When you multiply variables, you do not

need to write the ‘x’ sign

EquationsWhen you multiply variables, you do not need to write the ‘x’ sign

For example:

3 x w is the same as 3w

Equations

Variables and Equations Variables can be inserted into equations

in place of values that change.



For example:

Suppose you work at American Pie and you make $10.00 an hour.



For example:

Suppose you work at American Pie and you make $10.00 an hour.

The amount you earn is $10.00 times the number of hours you work.

Variables and Equations




Total earned = $10 x hours worked




t = 10 x h




t = 10 x h t = 10h
