Mathematics, Grade 7
Learning Standards:
fintegrated] solve problems involving ratios, rates, and percents, including multi-step problems involving percent inorease
and percent decrease, and financial literacy problems.[4D]

Bell Ringer: Quiz over Lesson 3.2 Percent lncrease and Decrease

3.3 Markup and Markdown

Engage: How can you rewrite expression to help you solve markup and markdown problems? Have you ever wanted to
figure out the sale price of an item before you got to the checkout counter?
Explore: Start with example 1 real world.

Explain: Students may think that tripling a cost means a SOOo/o markup. A cost x tripled is 3x. Breaking apart 3x into the
cost plus the markup yields x + 2x. How does the bar model for a markdown differ from the bar model for a markup?
Elaborate: Ask, How does a bar model show the expression for a sale price compare to one showing the expression for a
retail price? Remind students that the markup is an amount found by multiplying the cost by the percent markup. The
retail price is the cost plus the markup.

Evaluate: GP as class page 100 (1-12)

Mathematics, Grade 8
Learning Standards:
Integrated] distinguish between proportional and non-proportional situations using tables, graphs, and equations in the
form y = kx ory = mx + b, where b + 0.[5F]

Bell Ringer: grade homework

Lesson:4.4 Proportional and Non proportional Situations

Engage: How can you distinguish between proportional and non-proportional situations? What are some things where
the unit price changes as you buy more of them? ls the price proportional to the number of items you buy?

Explore: Discuss explore activity with class to distinguish between proportional and non-proportional situations using a
graph.

Explain: Ask, is a y-intercept of 0 enough to conclude that the relationship is proportional?

y=mx+b, just as m and b both represent any constant, x and y represent any two variables.

Explain

ln the linear equation

Elaborate: How do you know that a linear relationship given by a graph, a table, or an equation represents a nonproportional relationship?

Evaluate: work on GP as class
