Vacation

Three new challenges have been posted with different due dates. Good luck with them! Also, if you have any homework missing, use this vacation time to work on it!

The only homework you have for over the break is the regents review packet (except the green class which has an additional textbook homework assignment). Be careful, some of the answers for the review packet are tricky! One of the multiple choice questions has a typo so if you feel you got the right answer but you don't see it listed, you're probably right.

I will not have access to a computer over the break so I will be unable to post comments to the blog or answer email.

Enjoy the vacation!

Challenge #13 (Split the Booty)

For each challenge that you attempt, you must show all work and box your final answer to receive credit. DO NOT ERASE! It must be submitted hand written. Comments and emails will not be accepted. Remember, I cannot help you with these! Worth 3 points. Due: May 16, 2008

The Question:

A pirate crew at the end of the day split the booty collected. The first pirate got 100 gold pieces, and 1/6 of the remaining booty. The second one got 200 gold pieces, and 1/6 of the remaining booty. The third one got 300 gold pieces, and 1/6 of the remaining booty, etc. The last one only got what was left from the booty. At the end, every pirate had the same amount of gold pieces (from the booty). How many pirates were there, and how much booty was there in total?

Challenge #12 (The Family)

For each challenge that you attempt, you must show all work and box your final answer to receive credit. DO NOT ERASE! It must be submitted hand written. Comments and emails will not be accepted. Remember, I cannot help you with these! Worth 3 points. Due: May 9, 2008

The Question:

Parents with two children - a son and a daughter - came to a wide river. There was no bridge there. The only way to get to the other side was to ask a fisherman if he could lend them his boat. However, the boat could carry only one adult or two children. How does the family get to the other side and return the boat to the fisherman?
