Warm-up week of April 4, 2011

Monday

1.  There are 14 boys and 18 girls in a class write a ratio for the number of girls to boys in three different ways. Then write a ratio of the number of boys to total students in the class.

2.  Using the distributive property, simplify the following expression:

3(x + 5)

3. Draw a triangular prism.

4.  Find the volume of the rectangular prism:

Tuesday

1.  There are 30 guppies and 22 goldfish in a fishpond write a ratio for the number of goldfish to guppies in three different ways. Then write a ratio of the number of total fish to the number of guppies.

2.  Using the commutative property, can you group the numbers so that like terms (same variables) are together.

3x + 9y + 6 + 4x + 11y

3. How many faces, edges, and vertices does a rectangular prism have (hint: draw it first).

4. Find the volume of the rectangular prism:

Wednesday

1.  There are 14 red marbles and 18 blue marbles in a bag. Write a ratio for the number of red marbles to total marbles in three different ways. Then write the ratio one way in simplest form.

2.  Using the commutative property, can you group the numbers so that like terms (same variables) are together.

9x + 3y + 7 + 14x – 2y + 12

3. How many faces, edges, and vertices does a pentagonal pyramid have (hint: try to draw it first).

4. Find the volume of the rectangular prism:

Thursday

1.  There are 15 yellow marbles, 18 green marbles and 9 blue marbles in a bag. Write a ratio for the number of blue marbles to total marbles in three different ways. Then write the ratio one way in simplest form.

2.  Using the commutative property, can you group the numbers so that like terms (same variables) are together.

11x + 5y - 7 + x – 2y + 2

3. How many faces, edges, and vertices does a triangular pyramid have (hint: try to draw it first).
