A student on the track team runs 45 minutes each day as a part of her training. She begins her workout by running at a constant rate of 8 miles per hour for \(a\) minutes, then slows to a constant rate of 7.5 miles per hour for \(b\) minutes.

Which equation describes the relationship between the distance she runs in miles, \(D\), and her running speed, in miles per hour?

Elena bikes 20 minutes each day for exercise.

Write an equation to describe the relationship between her distance in miles, \(D\), and her biking speed, in miles per hour, when she bikes:

1. at a constant speed of 13 miles per hour for the entire 20 minutes
2. at a constant speed of 15 miles per hour for the first 5 minutes, then at 12 miles per hour for the last 15 minutes
3. at a constant speed of \(M\) miles per hour for the first 5 minutes, then at \(N\) miles per hour for the last 15 minutes

The dot plot displays the number of marshmallows added to hot cocoa by several kids. What is the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) of the data represented in the dot plot?

1. After studying the data, the researcher realized that the value 100 was meant to be recorded as 15. What happens to the mean and standard deviation of the data set when the 100 is changed to a 15?
2. For the original data set, with the 100, would the median or the mean be a better choice of measure for the center? Explain your reasoning.

A coach for a little league baseball team is ordering trophies for the team. Players on the team are allowed to choose between 2 types of trophies. The gold baseball trophies cost \$5.99 each, and the uniform baseball trophies cost \$6.49 each. The team orders \(g\) gold baseball trophies and \(u\) uniform baseball trophies.

Write an expression that could represent the total cost of all of the trophies.   

The robotics team needs to purchase \$350 of new equipment. Each of the \(x\) students on the team plans to fundraise and contribute equally to the purchase.

Which expression represents the amount that each student needs to fundraise?  

In a trivia contest, players form teams and work together to earn as many points as possible for their team. Each team can have between 3 and 5 players. Each player can score up to 10 points in each round of the game. Elena and four of her friends decided to form a team and play a round.

Write an expression, an equation, or an inequality for each quantity described here. If you use a variable, specify what it represents.

1. the number of points that Elena’s team earns in one round

2. the number of points Elena’s team earns in one round if every player scores between 6 and 8 points

3. the number of points Elena’s team earns if each player misses one point

4. the number of players in a game if there are 5 teams of 4 players each

5. the number of players in a game if there are at least 3 teams

Sketch the unique triangles that can be made with angle measures \(80^{\circ}\) and \(20^{\circ}\) and side length 5. How do you know you have sketched all possibilities?
