Joseph minus minions

J
A number less Angela

Five times a number is Lance

One-fifth of a number is Cj
Activity 1: Rewrite the following words into
mathematical equation.
1. Five times a number is two more than twice a
number
2. Twelve more than a number
3. Eight minus a number
4. A number is divided by four minus six is twelve
5. Twenty is subtracted from some number
6. Ten from some number
7. A number divided by eight, plus seven is
fifty
8. A number divided by three, minus the same
number multiplied by six,is one more than the
number
9. Nine from some number is four
10. Five less than some quantity is eight
11. When a number is subtracted from six, the
result is four more than the original number.
12. A number is subtracted from nine. This result is
then increased by one. The result is eight more
than three times the number
13. Twice a number is decreased by seven. This
result is decreased by four times the number. The
result is negative the original number, minus six
The area of
spongebob box is
numerically to fifty
times its perimeter.
Find the length of a
side of the
spongebob box.
Step 1: s could be the side
Step 2: P=4s

Step 3:

Therefore the value

of s=200 and s=0
Supposed that six
times the cube of a
number is 54 times
the number
Find the number.
Step 1: x is the number
Step 2:
Step 3:

Therefore the value of x is x=3 and x=-3

The area of a square
What is the length of
the side?
Therefore the length
of the side of the
square is 2 units.
The square of a
number is 20 more
than 8 times the
number. Find the
number.
Step 1: z is the number
Step 2:
Step 3:

Therefore the value of z is z=10 and z=-2

The length of a
rectangular table is 8
more than the width.
If the area is is , find
the length and width.
Step 1: l is the length and w is the width
Step 2:

Therefore the length of the table is 18 and the

width is 10.
Step 1: l is the length and w is the width
Step 2:

Step 3:

Therefore the value of w is z=10 and z=-18

The product of the two consecutive
integers is 110. Find the value of the
integers.
Step 1: be the first integer
be the second integer
Step 2:
Step 3:use APE
Step 3:

If the first integer is 10 then the second

integer is =10+1=11) 11.
If the first integer is -11 then the second
integer is
Activity: Find your Partner <3
1. The square of a number equals nine times tha
t number. Find the number
2. Forty-nine less the square of a number equals
zero. Find the number
3. The area of triangle is 80 cm squared. If the
height of the triangle is 6 cm less from base,
find the base and its height.
The square of a number =
Nine times that number =

Therefore the number is 0 and 9

Forty-nine = 49
Less than the square of a number =
the x should be positive

Therefore the number is 7 and -7

Let H be the height=6 cm less from base
H: b-6
Area=80cm squared
 b=-10

b=16
Therefore the value of base is -10 and 16
 Therefore the value of base is -10 and 16
If base is -10 then the height is
H=b-6
H=-10-6
H=-16
If the base is 16 the height is
H=16-6
H=10
Therefore the base is 16 and the height is 10
4.
Suppose that four times the square of a number e
quals 20 times that number. What is the number?
5.
The product of two consecutive integers is 90. Fi
nd the integers.
6. The area of a square is numerically equal to
five times its perimeter. Find the length of a side
of the square.
Let be the number
Four times the square of a number =
20 times that number =

Therefore the value of x is 5 and 0

Let be the number
x is the first number and
x+1 is the second number

Therefore the value of x -10 and 9

If the first number is 9 then the second
number is 10

9(10)=90
If the first number is -10 then the second
number is -9
-10(-9)=90
7. The cube of a number equals nine times the
number. Find the number.
8. The sum of a number and its square is 420.
What are the numbers that satisfy this condition?
9. Suppose that five times the cube of a number
equals 80 times the number. Find the number.
