Create a story that is about one page in length using at least five different algebraic expressions and/or equations. These are
some example story starters that you can adapt from or expand upon. Be creative and come up with your own characters and scenarios and create expressions and equations as well
A character is offered five different jobs. They all include an hourly wage, as well as a set weekly base pay. One example is a job that pays $8.50 an hour, plus an additional $25 bonus for the week. (Weekly base pay is what you automatically get paid for working the entire week. A bonus is money you earn in addition to the weekly base pay.) Story Starter 2: A character is searching for the best cell phone plan to buy. One plan costs $25 a month, plus $0.89 per minute used. Story Starter 3: A character is trying to decide which cab to choose from the five available. All the cabs have different rates per mile. They also charge different flat rates in addition to the rates per mile. One cab is offering a rate of $0.75 per mile, plus a flat fee of $25.
