Hello! Here is a real world problem that could work:

Jennie currently has $5 in her allowance. For every time she helps cook dinner, she earns $2. Jennie wants to buy an art set that costs $23, before tax. How many times would she have to help with dinner, before she could buy the art set?

How to solve it:

Okay. $5 is the fixed amount (one-time price), and Jennie earns $2 each time she helps cook dinner. First, let's subtract 5 from both sides in order to get 2x > 18. Now, divide each side by 2 to isolate the "x". 18/2 = 9. x > 9.There. Jennie would have to help cook dinner 9 times, before she has $23, but we are looking for greater than, so she would have to help 10 times, before she had enough money to buy the art set.

Lily graphs segment LM. Then, she reflects the segment across the y-axis. Which statement compares the lengths of the segment LM
Free_Kalibri [48]

Solution

The reflection is a rigid transformation. This does not affect the length of a line segment.

Therefore, the line segments are equal.

Hence, LM = L'M'

Thank you. :)
