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

18. Day 10
1) The mean of the data is 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)

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?

20. 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 =2
Day 2 2+2=4
Day 3 4+4=8
Day 4 8+8=16 Half of 1024 = 512
Day =32 Therefore, half of the
Day =64 money would be on day 9.
Day =128
Day =256
Day =512
Day =1024

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.

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? How many turkeys?

59. Day 31
Answer:
All 12 wings belonged to the turkeys (because pigs don’t have any); so he must have had 6 turkeys (2 wings each). The 6 turkeys have 12 legs, which leaves 12 legs for the pigs, or 3 pigs (4 legs each).
3 pigs and 6 turkeys
