Day 10 Using the line plot, 1. List the data. 2. Find the mean. xxx Using the line plot, 1. List the data. 2. Find the mean. 3. Find the median. 4. Find the mode. 5. Find the range. xx x x 7 8 9 10 11 12

Day 10 1) The mean of the data is 9.43. I added up all the numbers (8,8,9,9,9,11,12) and divided by 7 since there are 7 pieces of data. 2) The median of the data is 9. I order the numbers from least to greatest and found the number in the middle. 3) The mode of the data is 9 because it is listed the most. 4) The range of the data is 4. I subtracted the smallest data from the largest data (12-8)

Day 11 Puzzler! Dad gives you money every day to put in your new piggy bank. He gives money to you in such a way that the money in the piggy bank doubles with each passing day. If you already have 1 cent in the piggy bank and Dad gives you 1 cent the first day, 2 cents the second day, 4 cents the third day and so on, then your piggy bank gets full on the 10th day. On which day will your piggy bank be half-full?

Day 11 If your piggy bank is full on day 10, and you are doubling your money each day, the piggy bank will be half full on day 9. Day 1 1+1=2 Day 2 2+2=4 Day 3 4+4=8 Day 4 8+8=16 Half of 1024 = 512 Day 5 16+16=32 Therefore, half of the Day 6 32+32=64 money would be on day 9. Day 7 64+64=128 Day 8 128+128=256 Day 9 256+256=512 Day 10 512+512=1024

Day 30 Explain in words how to solve the following problem. Evaluate (a – b)2 if a = 10 and b = 4 Show all your work and/or explain your reasoning in the space provided on the answer chart.

Evaluate (a – b)2 if a = 10 and b = 4 Day 30 Evaluate (a – b)2 if a = 10 and b = 4 First, substitute 10 in for a and 4 in for b. (10 – 4)2 Then, subtract 4 from 10 to get 6. (The order of operations says to complete parentheses before exponents.) Finally, square the number 6, (or multiply 6 x 6), to get 36.

Day 31 Puzzler! Old MacDonald had a farm. And on that farm he had some turkeys and pigs. One day, while feeding them all, he noticed that , if he added everything together, his pigs and turkeys had a total of 24 legs and 12 wings between them. How many pigs did Old MacDonald have?
