Lesson 11

Find the quotients:

1. \(24 \div \text-6\)
2. \(\text-15 \div 0.3\)
3. \(\text-4 \div \text-20\)

Find the quotients.

1. \(\frac25 \div \frac34\)
2. \(\frac94 \div \frac {\text{-}3}{4}\)
3. \(\frac {\text{-}5}{7} \div \frac {\text{-}1}{3}\)
4. \(\frac {\text{-}5}{3} \div \frac16\)

Is the solution positive or negative?

1. \(2\boldcdot x=6\)
2. \(\text-2\boldcdot x=6.1\)
3. \(2.9 \boldcdot x = \text-6.04\)
4. \(\text-2.473\boldcdot x = \text-6.859\)

Find the solution mentally.

1. \(3 \boldcdot \text-4 = a\)
2. \(b \boldcdot (\text-3) = \text-12\)
3. \(\text- 12 \boldcdot c = 12\)
4. \(d \boldcdot 24 = \text-12\)

In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes \(1\frac12\) quarts of blue paint, 2 cups of green paint, and \(\frac12\) gallon of white paint. How much of each color is needed to make 100 cups of this shade of green paint?

Here is a list of the highest and lowest elevation on each continent.

1. Which continent has the largest difference in elevation? The smallest?
2. Make a display (dot plot, box plot, or histogram) of the data set and explain why you chose that type of display to represent this data set.
