Math Talk Real Life Scenario A teacher wanted to know the ages of Susan and Juan. She knew that Ricky was 12 years old. What are the ages of Susan and Juan if the total age of the 3 students is 22? x + y + 12 = 22
Math Talk What are the ages of Susan and Juan if the total age of the 3 students is 22? x + y + 12 = 22 • In your head think: • What are some strategies you might try? • What do the variables (x and y) used in the problem represent? • Are there other solutions to the problem? Algebraic Thinking
Math Talk Real Life Scenario A student wanted to know how many blue and red marbles were in the bag. He already knew that there were 8 purple marbles. How many blue and red marbles are there if the total number of marbles in the bag is 20? 8 + y + x = 20
