The solution to \(5-3x > 35\) is either \(x>\text-10\) or \(\text-10>x\). Which solution is correct? Explain how you know.

The school band director determined from past experience that if they charge \(t\) dollars for a ticket to the concert, they can expect attendance of \(1000-50t\). The director used this model to figure out that the ticket price needs to be \$8 or greater in order for at least 600 to attend. Do you agree with this claim? Explain your reasoning.

Which inequality is true when the value of \(x\) is -3?

Represent the solution for each inequality on the number line.

2. \(x<\frac52\)

   

Write three different equations that represent the tape diagram.

A baker wants to reduce the amount of sugar in his cake recipes. He decides to reduce the amount used in 1 cake by \(\frac12\) cup. He then uses \(4\frac12\) cups of sugar to bake 6 cakes.

1. Describe how the tape diagram represents the story.
2. How much sugar was originally in each cake recipe?
