7.A study team was discussing how to multiply 6x10 by 12x2.

Andrea said, The answer is 72x20.
Bernard said, No, the answer is 18x20.
Carmen disagreed and said, No, the answer is 72x12.
Finally, Diego concluded, You are all wrong. The answer is 18x12.
Are any of these students correct? How do you know? Explain well.

10. Starting in 1960, certain agencies began monitoring life expectancy in the U. S. That first
year, the average woman was expected to live to be 73.23 years old.
After several years, these agencies came up with an equation, y = 0.23x + 73, to give the average
lifespan of a U.S. woman in any year after 1960.
b.

In the equation, what are the real world interpretations of the slope and y-intercept? Be
clear and complete.

c.

What does the model predict to be the life expectancy of an average woman in the year
2025? How did you get your answer?

d.

Rate this model: do you think it seems reasonable? Why or why not?

11. Krissy collected data relating a persons age to the number of hours of sleep the person gets
each night. After graphing the data, she wrote a linear equation to model her data, with a
representing a persons age along the x axis, and s representing the number of hours of sleep.
What would a negative residual mean in this context? How is this different from a positive
residual? Be clear and complete.
