Overview:

Students will develop a clear understanding of what ratios and proportions are and how to solve proportions. The students will do this by filling out and working through the examples of the guided notes as a whole and independently on the worksheet.

Lesson Objectives:

Students will discover and develop methods on how show two ratios form a proportion. (synthesis)

Solve proportions. (application)

Vocabulary:

Ratio - is a comparison of two numbers by division. The ratio of x to y can be expressed in the following ways:

a) x to yb) x:y

c) yx

Proportions - an equation stating that two ratios are equal is called a proportion. Rate – the ratio of two measurements having different units of measure Scale – a ratio or rate is used when making a model or drawing of something that

is too large or too small to be conveniently drawn at actual size.

Anticipatory Set: (8 to 10 minutes)

Have the students relate:How many of you cook at home for your family? (If students are not participating, share one of your own experiences with them)Did you ever have a hard time, figuring out if you have enough food or ingredients for everyone who is eating it?

Revised copy

**All supplies and copies of work sheets will be taken care of and supplied to you

I have a hard time measuring especially, when it ask for ½ of a cup of something and I only have the ¼ , 1/3, 1/8, and the 1 cup measuring cup to measure with.

What should I do if that problem occurs? Let’s say we are making mac-n-cheese and I need ½ cup of milk, but I don’t have the ½ measuring cup. Can I still make the mac-n-cheese? Why?

Yes, because you can measure two ¼ cups of milk, which is the same as ½ cup of milk.

Have students measure the cups with water, to show they are equivalent. This is what we are working on today, Ratios and Proportions. YAY!

Developmental Activity: (20 to 25 minutes)

1. Pass out Ratio and Proportion Guided Notes.2. Work through the examples and fill in the blanks with students by asking

questions.3. Pass out Ratio and Proportion Worksheet.4. Have students work on the worksheet independently. Walk around helping

students if they are having trouble.5. If students are struggling do a couple problems together as a class, but have them

guide you through the problem. Keep asking, “What do I do next?”, if no one knows or responds, have them refer to their notes.

6. If students do not finish the Ratio and Proportion Worksheet, have them finish it for homework.

Closure: (5 to 8 minutes)

(See review section on Ratio and Proportions Worksheet.) Recap and ask guided questions for students to collaborate on the answers to summarize what they have learned.

Assessments: (7 to 10 minutes)

Students will be given homework that will be collected next class. Their homework is the Ratios and Proportions Worksheet/Homework (what ever they don’t finish in class is homework.) As well as a quiz/ test at the end of the week (Friday) that will consist of similar problems from the note sheet and homework sheet done in class.

Ratios and Proportions Guided Notes:

Section #1 - Determining Rations and Proportions:

What is a RATIO? A ratio is a comparison of two numbers by division.

It can be expressed in the three following ways: 1) x to y2) x: y

3) yx

Ratios are often expressed in SIMPLIEST FORM.

What is a PROPORTION? An equation stating that two ratios are equal is called a PROPORTION.

Example:42

= 21

124

31

=

How can we tell these two proportions are equivalent to each other? To check if two ratios form a proportion is to use CROSS PRODUCTS. If the cross products are equal, then the ratios form a proportion.

Verify the examples above:

42

= 21

124

31

=

If students are struggling show them the Fraction chart or give them the measuring cups to find out what is equivalent.

Section #3 – Using Rates:

RATES- the ratio of two measurements having different units of measure

Example: What are they comparing?

A price of $1.99 per dozen eggs dollars to a dozen eggs

A speed of 55 miles per hour miles to hours

A salary of $30,000 per year dollars to years

Practice:

Alex goes on a 30-mile bike ride every Saturday. He rides the distance in 4 hours. At this rate, how far can he ride in 6 hours? How far can he ride in 1 hour?

Explore: Let m = the number of miles Alex can ride in 6 hours

Plan: What are we comparing? Write a proportion for the problem.

45 = m

Does this makes sense? Think about it!

In the first hour how many miles did ride? 7.5 miles

In the second hour? 7.5 + 7.5 = 15 miles

In the third hour? 7.5 + 7.5 + 7.5 = 22.5 miles

In the sixth hour? 6(7.5) = 45 miles

Review: Cross product says to do 30(6) = m(4). What property allows me to write it as 30(6) = 4m?

Answer: Commutative Property

Section #4 – Using a Scales as Proportions:

A ratio or rate called a SCALE is used when making a model or drawing of something that is too large or too small to be conveniently drawn at actual size.

Example: This line (above) is 2 inches long but it can represent 400 meters for a map (show map scale on board)

Set up a proportion to find out how many meters it would be to move across the map 4.3 inches?

Lesson Plan

Topic: Percent of Change

Grade Level: 9th grade

Materials: pencils, paper, worksheets

Lesson Overview: The students will find percents of increase and decrease and solve problems involving percents of change. Using mostly real life situations, the students will compute percentages – using sales tax and discounts and compare what these percents do to prices. They will also find the percent of change between two numbers and determine if it is a percent of increase or a percent of decrease.

Objectives: The students will compare the differences between a

percentage increase and decrease. The students will solve problems and determine the

percentage increase or the percentage decrease between two numbers.

New York State Standards: A.CN.6 – Recognize and apply mathematics to situations in

the outside world. A.N.5 – Solve algebraic problems arising from situations that

involvefractions, decimals, percents (decrease/increase and discount),and proportionality/direct variation.

Key Ideas:o 3 – Operationso 5 - Measurement

Anticipatory Set: (approx 3-5 minutes)

Page 21: Lesson #1 (3-6) Ratios and Proportions - Buffalo State …math.buffalostate.edu/~jcushman/BuffStateWebpage/MED308... · Web viewThe distance between Discovery Point and Phantom Ship

Begin by passing out the Percents of Change: Practice worksheet and asking the students the following questions. Have them write their responses on the worksheet provided:

What happens to the price of something when the sales tax is added?o The price increases

What happens to the price of a product when there is a sale? o The price decreases

As you ask the questions and the students are writing their responses, take time to walk around and glance at their answer to make sure they are following along. Next ask them to share their answers.Developmental Activity: (approx 20-25 minutes)

Hand out the worksheet provided to each student, read or ask a student to read the first problem to the group. As you or a student is doing this, write the work shown on the board as you go through the problem.

Sara bought a pair of jeans for $29.99. If the sales tax was 8.25%, find the total price of the jeans that Sara paid.

29.99 x .0825 = 2.4729.99 + 2.47 = 32.46

Write the numbers on the board and see if the students can figure out or tell you how to go about solving this problem. The students will first need to know that in order to find the tax they must move the decimal point over two places to the left. Ask if they know why that is.

The students should at least be able to tell you that percents are out of 100. If not, ask a question like: what is the highest percentage you can score on a test? Once you have found the tax, ask the students what they are to do with that amount – add or subtract it to the original price. If they can not figure this out, go back to the questions in the beginning – they should have said that sales tax increases the price.

Next ask the students to find what the price of the jeans would be if they were on sale for 20% off. The students should begin the same way as the previous problem. Have the students do this on their own and then go over it once they have finished it or at least give them time to think about it. (No more than 5 minutes.) Ask the students what they notice about the prices, when tax is added and also when a product is marked at a discounted price. They should write these responses on their paper, to make sure they are following along walk around and check their work and responses, then ask someone to share.

29.99 x .20 = 6.0029.99 – 6 = 23.99

Next, again write the following problem on the board (the students can follow along on their worksheet):

Original: 25New: 28

Find whether the percent of change is a percent of increase or a percent of decrease. First you will need to find the amount of change. Since the new amount is greater than the original, the percent of change is a percent of increase.

28 – 23 = 3

100253 r

= In order to solve this proportion the students may see that 25

must be multiplied by 4 go get 100. If not make it obvious, tell them to look at it like money: 25 cents and a dollar, ask how many quarters do you need to get a dollar?

i.e. 24(4) = 100 and therefore 3(4) = 12

Another way to solve this proportion is to multiply each side by the common denominator.

)25100)(100

()253)(25100( xrx =

On the left side of the equation the 25’s would cancel out and on the right side the 100’s would cancel each other out. Leaving the following:

100(3) = 25(r) 300 = 25r

2525

25300 r

=

12 = rThe percent of increase is 12%.

This problem should be done as a class, ask the students for help as you go through the algebra part of the problem. The students should be able to solve this and walk you through it.

The next problem is an example of a percent of decrease. Again, write this on the board but this time see if the students can solve this on their own, assist them where needed. Once you have given them a chance to get started, go over it and have them explain their process.

Original: 30New: 12

The percent of change is a percent of decrease because the new amount is less than the original. Find the change.

30 – 12 = 18

18 r=

18(100) = 30(r) 1800 = 30r

3030

=

60 = rThe percent of decrease is 60%.

Once you have finished this problem, give the students the worksheet to complete. They can begin if there is time left at the end of class or it is to be completed for homework.

Closure: (3-5 minutes)Before the students begin the homework assignment, hand out

the Exit Ticket. This will consist of questions based on today’s lesson to see how well the students followed along. Collect the ticket before they leave class.

Assessment:The homework and the exit tickets will be used as the

assessment. Also, as the students are working on examples 2 and 4 use this time to walk around and see if they were paying attention to the previous examples and they should be using those as a guide to assist them in completing them. Give the students about 3-5 minutes to work on each of these problems before you go over them.

Lesson #3 (4-4) Equations as Relations

Materials: Pen/PencilNotebook Paper

Equation as Relations Guided NotesEquation as Relations Worksheet/ HomeworkGraph Paper

Lesson Overview: Students will develop a clear understanding of what equations and relations are,

their components (domain, range, independent variable, dependent variable, and ordered pair) and how to they are used. The students will do this by filling out and working through the examples of the guided notes through class discussion and independently on the worksheet.

Lesson Objectives:

Page 26: Lesson #1 (3-6) Ratios and Proportions - Buffalo State …math.buffalostate.edu/~jcushman/BuffStateWebpage/MED308... · Web viewThe distance between Discovery Point and Phantom Ship

Students will be able to generate the range and domain of a given equation. (analysis)

Students will graph the solution set for a given domain. (application)

Vocabulary:

Ordered Pair – is the solution of an equation with two variables that results in a true statement when substituted into the equation.

Domain – (all input values) contains all values of the independent variable Range – (all out put values) contains all values of the dependent variable

Anticipatory Set: (8 to 10 minutes)

Check list: writing equations (algebraically and verbally)undoing operationsworking backwards with word problemssolving multi-step equationssolving equations with the variable on each sidesolving equations and formulasusing ratios and proportionspercent of change

So far everything we have been doing, we are working with only one variable. Now we are given an equation with two variables. This type of equations is called Equations of Relations.

Have the students relate:How many of you have been to Canada or maybe a different country? Did any of you buy something while you were there?

Souvenirs, T-shirt, clothes, food … etcDid you have a problem with the exchange rate at all?

The price tag of item they bought did not match how much the item rang up for. The products they bought were cheaper or more expensive than normal.

Problem: Let’s say you and your friends are going to be taking a road trip to Toronto. So far you have saved $500 for your trip, and you want to find out how much that will be worth in Toronto, Canada. The exchange rate today is 1 US dollar = 1.10 Canadian.

Have the students reflect:

Can you set up an equation to be able to convert US dollars to Canadian dollars? YES! The equation to convert dollars (d) to Canadian dollars (c): c = 1.10d.

Optional: If students are having trouble coming up with an equation, make a table:

Note: Today the exchange rate is pretty much even, but you could talk about other places. I thought this would be more beneficial to students because some of them have actually been to Canada and might be able to relate. You could make the connection that in England the exchange rate is 1 US dollar = 0.69 pounds.

US Money (d = dollars)

Canadian Money (c = Canadian dollars)

Input value (independent variable)

Output value(dependent variable)

1.00 1.102.00 2.20

3.00 3.304.00 4.405.00 5.50

500.00 550.00d 1.10 * d

Why are Equations of Relations important in traveling? An equation of Relations shows us relationships between the exchange rate of two different countries’ currency. So we know how much money we have. (The equation describes the relationship)

Developmental Activity: (40 minutes 20 minutes on Section #1, 20 minutes on Section #2 and 3)

1. Pass out Equations of Relations Guided Notes. 2. Have students take out a sheet of notebook paper and have them write their name

and date across the top. 3. Work through the examples and fill in the blanks with students by asking

questions.4. When asking a closure question, have students write their responses on the

separate sheet of paper.5. Pass out Equations of Relations Worksheet.

Ask students how they converted $2 into $1.10? If they still cannot explain it ask them how they converted $3.00 into $3.30? If they still cannot explain themselves, ask if they see a pattern on the right column.

Page 28: Lesson #1 (3-6) Ratios and Proportions - Buffalo State …math.buffalostate.edu/~jcushman/BuffStateWebpage/MED308... · Web viewThe distance between Discovery Point and Phantom Ship

6. Have students work on the worksheet independently. Walk around helping students if they are having trouble.

7. If students are struggling do a couple problems together as a class, but have them guide you through the problem. Keep asking, “What do I do next?”, if no one knows or responds, have them refer to their notes.

8. If students do not finish the Equations of Relations Worksheet, have them finish it for homework.

Closure: (5 minutes) After each practice example of each section, I have them answer a question on a

separate sheet of paper to check their understanding. Collect each paper before class ends. (See notes on Answer Key)

Students will work independently on Equations of Relations Worksheet. Teachers should circulate around as students are working on the handout to make sure they are staying on task and doing the work.

Assessment: (5 to 10 minutes) Students will be given homework that will be collected next class. As well as a

quiz/ test at the end of the week (Friday) that will consist of similar problems from the note sheet and homework sheet done in class.

Equation as Relations Guided Notes:

The equation c = .90d is an example of an equation with TWO VARIABLES. A solution of an equation with two variables is an ORDERED PAIR that results in a true statement when substituted into the equation. Written as (independent variable, dependent variable) or (x, y).

Section #1 - Solve Using a Replacement Set:

Example: Find the solution set for y = 2x + 3, {(-2, -1), (-1, 3), (0, 4), (3, 9), (x, y)}.

Step #1: Make a table. Step #2: Substitute each ordered pair into the equation.Step #3: Find out which ordered pairs belong to this equation.Step #4: State the solution set.

This is called the REPLACEMENT SET – a set of possible solutions, some might be right and some might be wrong, so check ALL the ordered pairs!

Page 29: Lesson #1 (3-6) Ratios and Proportions - Buffalo State …math.buffalostate.edu/~jcushman/BuffStateWebpage/MED308... · Web viewThe distance between Discovery Point and Phantom Ship

The ordered pairs (-2, 1) and (3, 9) result in true statements. The solution set to this equation is: {(-2, 1), (3, 9)}

Practice: Find the solution set for 3x – 2y = 5, given the replacement set:{(3, 4), (5, 5), (-1, -4), (0, 2)}.

x y 3x-2y = 5 Solution?3 4 3(3) - 2(4) = 5

9 – 8 = 5 1 = 5

NO

5 5 3(5) - 2(5) = 5 15 – 10 = 5 5 = 5

YES!

-1 -4 3(-1) - 2(-4) = 5 -3 – (-8) = 5 -3 + 8 = 5 5 = 5

YES!

4 2 3(0) - 2(2) = 5 0 – 4 = 5 -4 = 5

NO!

x y y = 2x + 3 Solution?-2 -1 -1 = 2 (-2) + 3

-1 = -4 + 3 -1 = -1

YES!

-1 3 3 = 2 (-1) + 3 3 = -2 + 3 3 = 1

NO

0 4 4 = 2 (0) +3 4 = 0 + 3 4 = 3

NO

3 9 9 = 2 (3) + 3 9 = 6 + 3 9 = 9

YES!

Have students pick their own ordered pair to see if it is a solution.

Question #1: Why is the ordered pair (4, 2) not in the solution set for this equation?

Answer: When you substitute or plug in (4, 2) into the equation, both sides of the equation do not equal each other.

Page 30: Lesson #1 (3-6) Ratios and Proportions - Buffalo State …math.buffalostate.edu/~jcushman/BuffStateWebpage/MED308... · Web viewThe distance between Discovery Point and Phantom Ship

The ordered pairs (5, 5) and (-1, -4) result in true statements. The solution set is {(5, 5), (-1, -4)}.

Section #2 - Solve Using a Given Domain:

DOMAIN – (all input values) contains all values of the independent variableRANGE - (all output values) contains all values of the dependent variable

What is the domain and range to our solution set in the previous example?Domain: {5, -1}Range: {5, -4}

Example: Solve b = a +5 if the domain is {-3, -1, 0, 2, 4}.

Step #1: Make a table.Step #2: Substitute each value of a into the equation to determine the values of b in the RANGE.

a a + 5 b (a, b)-3 -3 + 5 2 ( -3, 2)-1 -1 + 5 4 (-1, 4)0 0 + 5 5 (0, 5)2 2 + 5 7 (2, 7)4 4 + 5 9 (4, 9)

The solution set is {(-3, 2), (-1, 4), (0, 5), (2, 7)}.

What is the range to this equation? {2, 4, 5, 7, 9}.

Practice: (1) Solve y = 3x + 1 if the domain is {-4, -2, 0, 2, 4}.

What is the range to this equation? {-11, -5, 1, 7, 13}

Section #3 – Solve and Graph the Solution Set:

Example: Solve 4x + 2y = 10 if the domain is {-1, 0, 2, 4}. Graph the solution set.

x 3x + 1 y (x, y)-4 3(-4) +1 -11 ( -4, -11)-2 3(-2) +1 -5 (-2, -5)0 3(0) +1 1 (0, 1)2 3(2) + 1 7 (2, 7)4 3(4) +1 13 (4, 13)

Question #2: When we substitute all the independent variables (the x values) into the equation, we get dependent variables (the y values). What is the set that contains all the dependent variables called?

Answer: the Range

On the test, they might give you the range and you have to find the domain. This is the same process except instead of substitute in the domain into all the x values you would substitute the range into the y values.

Page 31: Lesson #1 (3-6) Ratios and Proportions - Buffalo State …math.buffalostate.edu/~jcushman/BuffStateWebpage/MED308... · Web viewThe distance between Discovery Point and Phantom Ship

Step #1: Solve the equation for y in terms of x. (This makes creating a table of values much easier to work with)

4x + 2y = 10 2y = 10 – 4xy = 5 – 2x

Step #2: Make a table to find the range and the solution set.

Step #3: Graph the solution set {(-1, 7), (0, 5), (2, 1), (4, -3)}.

Practice: Solve 2x – y = 3 if the domain is {-5, -2, 0, 1, 3}. Graph the solution set.

x 5 - 2x y (x, y)-1 5 – 2(-1) 7 ( -1, 7)0 5 – 2(0) 5 (0, 5)2 5 – 2(2) 1 (2, 1)4 5 – 2(4) -3 (4, -3)

Isolate the y variable: Subtract 4x from both sides and simplify Divide both sides by 2 and simplify

Step #3: (see graph paper)

Practice: (refer to anticipatory set)

You and your friend just won a trip to England!! The exchange rate is 1 US dollar = 0.69 pounds (£) [p = .69d]. Your friend made a list of the expenses he plans on spending while you are in England. Use the conversion rate to find the equivalent US dollar for these amounts given in pounds (£) and graph the ordered pairs. (Round to the nearest dollar)

Explore: Let d = the amount of US dollars p = the amount of pounds (£)

p = .69d

domain: {40, 30, 15, 6}

Plan: We are looking for dollars (our dependent variable)Pounds is our independent variable
