Example• The Bullet Train runs between the
Japanese cities of Osaka and Fukuoka, a distance of 550 kilometers. When it makes no stops, it takes 2 hours and 15 minutes to make the trip.. What is the average speed of the Bullet Train?

Example• A watersaving faucet has a flow rate of at
most 9.6 cubic inches per second. To test whether your faucet meets this standard, you time how long it takes the faucet to fill a 470 cubic inch pot, obtaining a time of 35 seconds. Find your faucet’s flow rate. Does it meet the standard for water conservation?

Using other problem solving strategies
• When you are writing a verbal model to represent a real-life problem, remember that you can use other problem solving strategies like drawing a diagram or looking for a pattern or guess and check to help create the verbal model. Pgs. 35 and 36 have other examples if you need them.
