Critical Thinking

Jai takes the train to work every morning.

He catches an 8:40

A.M. train that arrives at his

destination 10 miles away at 9:00

A.M. In the

evening Jai takes the bus home. He catches a

bus at 6:35

P.M. It arrives at his stop at 6:50

P.M.

How much faster in miles per hour does the bus

travel than the train?

Remember: 1 hour = 60 minutes

In This Chapter You Will:

●Recognize, describe, and extend

patterns in sequences
●Form a conjecture and prove that it

is false or demonstrate its truth
●Graph a linear function from a table

of values and identify solutions to the

related linear equation

●Identify different forms of slope and

find the slope of a line from two

given points

●Identify linear functions and nonlinear

functions using equations and graphs

●Identify a graphical representation of a

real-world situation

●Identify and graph transformations of

figures on the coordinate plane

●Apply the strategy: Consider Extreme Cases

●Look for new vocabulary words

highlighted in each lesson

●An ordered pair is a pair of

numbers used to locate a point in a
coordinate plane. The first number
is the x-coordinate, and the second
number is the y-coordinate.
●A rate is a ratio that compares two

unlike quantities.

●A translation slides a

figure in a direction. A

reflection flips a figure

over a line. A rotation

turns a figure

around a point.
