COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR MATHEMATICS
Standards for Mathematical Practice
The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe varieties of expertise that mathematics educators at all levels should
seek to develop in their students. These practices rest on important “processes and proficiencies” with longstanding
importance in mathematics education. The first of these are the NCTM process standards of problem solving,
reasoning and proof, communication, representation, and connections. The second are the strands of mathematical
proficiency specified in the National Research Council’s report Adding It Up: adaptive reasoning , strategic
competence, conceptual understanding (comprehension of mathematical concepts, operations and relations),
procedural fluency (skill in carrying out procedures flexibly, accurately, efficiently and appropriately) and productive
disposition (habitual inclination to see mathematics as sensible, useful, and worthwhile, coupled with a belief in
diligence and one’s own efficacy).
1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Mathematically proficient students:
• explain to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution.
• analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals.
• make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution attempt.
• consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem.
• monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary.
• transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get information.
• explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs.
• draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends.
• use concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem.
• check their answers to problems using a different method.
• ask themselves, “Does this make sense?”
• understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
Mathematically proficient students:
• make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations.
ü decontextualize (abstract a given situation and represent it symbolically and manipulate the representing
symbols as if they have a life of their own, without necessarily attending to their referents and
ü contextualize (pause as needed during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the
symbols involved).
• use quantitative reasoning that entails creating a coherent representation of quantities, not just how to compute
them
• know and flexibly use different properties of operations and objects.
3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.

2.Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3.Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4.Model with mathematics.
5.Use appropriate tools strategically.

7.Look for and express regularity in repeated
Solution
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem
and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and
goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution
pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems,
and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its
solution. They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary. Older
students might, depending on the context of the problem, transform algebraic expressions or
change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the information they need.
Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences between equations, verbal
descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph
data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students might rely on using concrete objects
or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem. Mathematically proficient students check
their answers to problems using a different method, and they continually ask themselves, \"Does
this make sense?\" They can understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems
and identify correspondences between different approaches.
MP2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
Mathematically proficient students make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem
situations. They bring two complementary abilities to bear on problems involving quantitative
relationships: the ability to decontextualize—to abstract a given situation and represent it
symbolically and manipulate the representing symbols as if they have a life of their own, without
necessarily attending to their referents—and the ability to contextualize, to pause as needed
during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the symbols involved.
Quantitative reasoning entails habits of creating a coherent representation of the problem at
hand; considering the units involved; attending to the meaning of quantities, not just how to
compute them; and knowing and flexibly using different properties of operations and objects.
MP3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
Mathematically proficient students understand and use stated assumptions, definitions, and
previously established results in constructing arguments. They make conjectures and build a.

Discussion. Forensic Anthropology and Odontology. AT LEAST 160 WORDS AND ONE REFERENCE.
Bite marks left behind as impressions on a person's body by an attacker have been used in forensic investigations. Odontologists compare the positions and number of teeth, as well as dental work in order to make their comparisons. One of the most famous cases where this type of evidence was used in the case of serial killer Theodore (Ted) Bundy. Bite marks were found on one of his victims which was compared to Bundy's bite mark impression and presented in court. While this may seem like solid evidence of identification, it has become controversial for use in criminal cases.
In your post, explain why this type of analysis is controversial? Provide an example (not Bundy) of a specific criminal case or discussion in the media of this controversy, be sure to include sources. Include your opinion about using this technique in criminal cases.

· 2 major threats to biodiversity today.
· Where do these threats come from?
Your main response should be a minimum of 150 words (more is OK). You must also post a minimum of one significant reply to a classmate's post that contributes to their learning by Friday, 11:59 pm. The reply should be a minimum of 100 words.
Response to below discussion: Britt
The two main threats to biodiversity today are habitat loss and pollution. Our environments are seriously threatened by pollution. Pollution in the air, water, soil, and plastics have all have a negative impact on biodiversity. As you travel down the highways, you will see that plastic bottles and wrappers are all over the place, and factory emissions are contaminating the air with ammonia, dust, and soot. Animals suffering from respiratory distress from air pollution also have lower reproductive rates, which reduces biodiversity. In addition to polluting our air, greenhouse gases cause climate change, which destroys hundreds of coral reefs in our oceans. Our fish die from water contamination, which results in a decline in fish diversity. Another significant problem with biodiversity is habitat loss. Many species become extinct due to habitat loss. To develop another structure or establishment, this act entails razinf forests and habitats. Because they are removing such a large number of species from their habitats, this has a significant negative impact on biodiversity. Additionally, some species could become extinct completely as a result of this. These dangers are posed by people and companies that want to build more buildings and tear down forests and habitats to do so.

Discussion WK 9
The Role of the RN/APRN in Policy Evaluation
In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making. A critical component of any policy design is evaluation of the results. How comfortable are you with the thought of becoming involved with such matters?
Some nurses may be hesitant to get involved with policy evaluation. The preference may be to focus on the care and well-being of their patients; some nurses may feel ill-equipped to enter the realm of policy and political activities. However, as you have examined previously, who better to advocate for patients and effective programs and polices than nurses? Already patient advocates in interactions with doctors and leadership, why not with government and regulatory agencies?
In this Discussion, you will reflect on the role of professional nurses in policy evaluation.
To Prepare:
· In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making.
· Review the Resources and reflect on the role of professional nurses in policy evaluation.
By Day 3 of Week 9
Select an existing healthcare program or policy evaluation or choose one of interest to you.
Review community, state, or federal policy evaluation and reflect on the criteria used to measure the effectiveness of the program or policy described.
Post an evaluation topic and a brief description of the evaluation. Discuss how social determinants impact this issue.

Rethinking the Efficacy-to-Effectiveness Transition
I Russell E. Glasgow, PhD, Edward Lichtenstein, PhD, and Alfred C, Marcus, PhD
The gap between research and practice is well documented. We address one of the
underlying reasons for this gap: the assumption that effectiveness research naturally
and logically follows from successful efficacy research. These 2 research traditions
have evolved different methods and values; consequently, there are inherent differ-
ences between the characteristics of a successful efficacy intervention versus those of
an effectiveness one. Moderating factors that limit robustness across settings, popu-

Discussion Question:
Telehealth technology has extended the arms of traditional health care delivery into homes, clinics, and other environments outside the bricks and mortar of hospitals. Will the increased use of these telehealth technology tools be viewed as “de-humanizing” patient care or will they be viewed as a means to promote more contact with healthcare providers and new ways for people to “stay connected” (as online disease support groups), thereby creating better long-term disease management and patient satisfaction?

Discussion: Communicating in Your Internship
Directions
Kiser, Chapter 6: Communicating in Your Internship, describes the clientele who access HUS settings and successful communication skills for HUS practitioners. Throughout your HUS courses, you have been exposed to theoretical perspectives regarding individuals, groups, families, and agencies, and reviewed counseling, mental health, aging, multiculturalism, case management, and social policy. Now the time has come to apply your knowledge directly with human beings. As you have progressed through your internship and have reached the halfway mark, you have had opportunities to not only interact with clients but to observe situations in which you have been challenged to remain neutral and communicate effectively.
For your initial post:
1. Describe your client population. Cite Kiser Chapter 6 material to explain some of the characteristics of this group and some of the challenges a HUS professional might encounter.
2. Discuss what you have learned in your HUS coursework that has helped you to understand and work with this clientele. Specifically name the course and information. For example: Family Systems and Dynamics helped me to understand that the whole family plays a part in the problem that the client presents. Ethics taught me that the professional role has clear boundaries and that I must be aware of those boundaries to help my clients without violating ethical standards. Group Dynamics taught me that conflict and power may make it hard to serve my client population. Please refer to the courses you have taken.
3. Discuss at least 2 areas that have been more difficult as you work with the clientele.
4. Discuss your understanding of what roadblocks have been presented for you to overcome, for example, personal beliefs and values regarding conflict, anger, addiction, poverty, incarceration, aging, gender, culture, religion. It is important to be honest and own that although being objective is an ideal, as human beings, our own biases and beliefs will be brought into sharp relief as we deal directly with others who are facing challenges in their lives.
5. Discuss what you can do to work towards more neutrality when faced with clients who challenge you. Give at least three methods you can use to help you overcome these challenges.

Discussion Topic- Concepts of Managed Care Health insurance comp.docxJeniceStuckeyoo
Discussion Topic- Concepts of Managed Care
Health insurance companies cover services they define as medically necessary. Medical necessity is a decision made by a health plan as to whether the treatment, test, or procedure is necessary for a patient’s health or to treat a medical problem. Third-party payers (aka Insurance companies or health plans) often require documentation to illustrate medical necessity for treatment before payment will be made.
For your main Discussion post, evaluate and examine medical necessity from a
provider’s
(doctor, hospital, clinic, etc.) point of a view
and
from a
payer’s
/health plan’s (Aetna, Cigna, Affinity, Healthfirst, etc.) point of view.
Research then discuss the role

Discussion Prompt #1 - Juveniles as AdultsThe juvenile jus.docxJeniceStuckeyoo
Discussion Prompt #1 - Juvenile's as Adults?
The juvenile justice system has evolved into a parallel yet independent system of justice with its own terminology and rules of prosecution. The primary purpose of juvenile procedures is protection and treatment; with adults, the aim is to punish the guilty. Are there any circumstances in which you believe that a juvenile may be tried as adults? On what basis have you arrived at this answer?
Discussion Prompt #2 - After School Programs
A major preventive advantage of school for juveniles is the monitoring and social control that principals, teachers, and other school staff provide. Some juveniles are on their own after school because their parents are at work. This time period can create opportunities for crime and delinquency. After-school programs can keep children and adolescents engaged in structured, prosocial activities until their parents return from work. How important are after-school programs for at-risk youth? Provide an example of an after-school youth program that is effective in engaging children and adolescents.

· In addition to your main post, you must post
three responses to other posts made by your classmates. These can be replies to other main posts or responding to student replies on your thread.
PLEASE RESPOND TO THE PEER POSTS BELOW
PEER 1
Ransomware works via finding its way onto a host computer, it's a kind of malware so it's like when your computer gets sick and slows it down but instead it locks out all your stuff. Usually what they ask for in return for control of your files is money, but sometimes they will ask for other important things. The FBI doesn't condone giving the attackers what they want because it's more than likely that they'll just take the money and keep your stuff locked, they'll possibly even ask for more. That's why they stress how important it is that if this happens to you then you should go to them for help. If your in a company then you ask your IT department.
The software goes through this encryption phase where it starts encrypting all the files on your computer until it's all locked and you can tell if something is encrypted usually because the file will have an extension added onto it. Such as .aaa , .micro , .encrypted , .ttt , .xyz , .zzz , .locky , .crypt , .cryptolocker , .vault , or .petya. These extensions are an indication that a file has been partially or fully encrypted. What's recommended is that as soon as you find out that your files are being locked, you disconnect from all wireless connections and other computing devices, because this virus can and will spread to cause even more havoc. It can spread across your network and ruin other computers on said network.
Ransomware is normally delivered by drive-by downloads or email phishing. Drive-by downloads are a fancy way of saying a download that you pick up while browsing a site and it runs in the background. Email phishing is one of the reasons you don't click on links from emails from anyone, even from trusted sources. If you know who the email is coming from your best bet is to get with them personally to make sure that it's a valid email and that it's not an attacker. If a ransom is paid though, the attack may give you an encryption key to unlock your files, if your lucky enough. Why take a chance though, you should always take the smart path and make sure that you contact the proper authorities if you come across anything like this in your time. Also make sure to back up your computer files, it may sound obvious enough to want to put it off and procrastinate this, but the longer you wait the more at risk you are.

Discussion Ethics in Cross-Cultural ResearchWhile many psyc.docxJeniceStuckeyoo
Discussion: Ethics in Cross-Cultural Research
While many psychologists may be familiar with ethical considerations in their own culture, such as the use of Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) to review research, or the existence of professional documents such as American Psychological Association’s (APA) code of ethics, when conducting research outside of their majority home culture, they may be at a loss. For instance, the psychologist may not be aware of different rules and regulations for research in different nations, or about various spoken and unspoken cultural beliefs about morals and ethics and the role and purpose of research, such as differing understandings and beliefs about what merits co-authorship or what constitutes privacy and confidentiality. Familiarizing yourself with such ethical considerations will be important for you to understand in your future professional practice.
For this Discussion, you will examine ethical issues related to cross-cultural research and the necessary course of action.
To Prepare:
Consider the following:
Professor Plum wants to investigate cross-cultural differences in attitudes towards different foods. He is very interested in nation “X”. However, he has never been there nor does he know the language or culture or the political situation. He also does not know if there are any psychologists living in that nation. Understanding attitudes about foods in this nation may help with people with eating disorders in Professor Plum’s country and eventually may help people with eating disorders in many nations.
As you consider Professor Plum’s research, think about the impact of his plans on human subject protection. Also, consider the ethical implications of the aims of his research purposes and his ability to gain information that will accurately represent those from whom he collects data.
Before Professor Plum begins his research,
post
and explain some of the potential ethical issues he will need to consider (i.e., impact on human subject protection) and why this is an important consideration. Further explain two ethical issues and suggest what courses of action might be appropriate.

Discussion 2 Advantages and Disadvantages of Different Methods .docxJeniceStuckeyoo
Discussion 2: Advantages and Disadvantages of Different Methods in Cross-Cultural Research
In cross-cultural psychology research, a broad range of techniques is utilized to determine the best way to access critical data. Each technique has its advantages and disadvantages. For example, laboratory experiments may offer great control and ability to examine issues of cause and effect, but may not always reflect actual real-world conditions, especially in cross cultural situations. As an additional example, long term field work and interviews conducted by living in a given cultural setting for a year or two, may offer the possibility of many nuanced observations, yet such qualitative work will not lead to statistical or experimental designs. Each method tends to have pros and cons, rather than one method being the "right" one for every situation. For this Discussion, you will explore the advantages and disadvantages of using different research methods in cross-cultural research.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
The chapter Lifelines of National Economy in Class 10 Geography focuses on the various modes of transportation and communication that play a vital role in the economic development of a country. These lifelines are crucial for the movement of goods, services, and people, thereby connecting different regions and promoting economic activities.

NCTM process standards of problem solving,
reasoning and proof, communication, representation, and
connections. The second are the strands of mathematical
proficiency specified in the National Research Council’s report

The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe varieties of
expertise that mathematics
educators at all levels should seek to develop in their students.
These practices rest on important
“processes and proficiencies” with longstanding importance in
7. mathematics education. The first
of these are the NCTM process standards of problem solving,
reasoning and proof,
communication, representation, and connections. The second are
the strands of mathematical
proficiency specified in the National Research Council’s report

students might, depending on the context of the problem,
transform algebraic expressions or
change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get
9. the information they need.
Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences
between equations, verbal
descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important
features and relationships, graph
data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students
might rely on using concrete objects
or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem.
Mathematically proficient students check
their answers to problems using a different method, and they
continually ask themselves, "Does
this make sense?" They can understand the approaches of others
to solving complex problems
and identify correspondences between different approaches.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP2
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/
MP2/) Reason abstractly and
quantitatively.
Mathematically proficient students make sense of quantities and
their relationships in problem
situations. They bring two complementary abilities to bear on
problems involving quantitative
relationships: the ability to decontextualize—to abstract a given
situation and represent it
10. symbolically and manipulate the representing symbols as if they
have a life of their own, without
necessarily attending to their referents—and the ability to
contextualize, to pause as needed
during the manipulation process in order to probe into the
referents for the symbols involved.
Quantitative reasoning entails habits of creating a coherent
representation of the problem at
hand; considering the units involved; attending to the meaning
of quantities, not just how to
compute them; and knowing and flexibly using different
properties of operations and objects.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP3
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/

arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
Mathematically proficient students understand and use stated
assumptions, definitions, and
previously established results in constructing arguments. They
make conjectures and build a
logical progression of statements to explore the truth of their
conjectures. They are able to
analyze situations by breaking them into cases, and can
recognize and use counterexamples.
11. They justify their conclusions, communicate them to others, and
respond to the arguments of
others. They reason inductively about data, making plausible
arguments that take into account
the context from which the data arose. Mathematically
proficient students are also able to
compare the effectiveness of two plausible arguments,
distinguish correct logic or reasoning
from that which is flawed, and—if there is a flaw in an
argument—explain what it is. Elementary

students can construct arguments using concrete referents such
as objects, drawings, diagrams,
and actions. Such arguments can make sense and be correct,
even though they are not
generalized or made formal until later grades. Later, students
learn to determine domains to
which an argument applies. Students at all grades can listen or
read the arguments of others,
12. decide whether they make sense, and ask useful questions to
clarify or improve the arguments.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP4
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/
MP4/) Model with
mathematics.
Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics
they know to solve problems
arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. In early
grades, this might be as simple as
writing an addition equation to describe a situation. In middle
grades, a student might apply
proportional reasoning to plan a school event or analyze a
problem in the community. By high
school, a student might use geometry to solve a design problem
or use a function to describe
how one quantity of interest depends on another.
Mathematically proficient students who can
apply what they know are comfortable making assumptions and
approximations to simplify a
complicated situation, realizing that these may need revision
later. They are able to identify
important quantities in a practical situation and map their
relationships using such tools as
13. diagrams, two-way tables, graphs, flowcharts and formulas.
They can analyze those relationships
mathematically to draw conclusions. They routinely interpret
their mathematical results in the
context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make
sense, possibly improving the
model if it has not served its purpose.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP5
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/
MP5/) Use appropriate tools
strategically.
Mathematically proficient students consider the available tools
when solving a mathematical
problem. These tools might include pencil and paper, concrete
models, a ruler, a protractor, a
calculator, a spreadsheet, a computer algebra system, a
statistical package, or dynamic geometry
software. Proficient students are sufficiently familiar with tools
appropriate for their grade or
course to make sound decisions about when each of these tools
might be helpful, recognizing
both the insight to be gained and their limitations. For example,
mathematically proficient high
14. school students analyze graphs of functions and solutions
generated using a graphing calculator.
They detect possible errors by strategically using estimation and
other mathematical knowledge.
When making mathematical models, they know that technology
can enable them to visualize the

results of varying assumptions, explore consequences, and
compare predictions with data.
Mathematically proficient students at various grade levels are
able to identify relevant external
mathematical resources, such as digital content located on a
website, and use them to pose or
solve problems. They are able to use technological tools to
explore and deepen their
understanding of concepts.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP6
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/
MP6/) Attend to precision.
15. Mathematically proficient students try to communicate precisely
to others. They try to use clear
definitions in discussion with others and in their own reasoning.
They state the meaning of the
symbols they choose, including using the equal sign
consistently and appropriately. They are
careful about specifying units of measure, and labeling axes to
clarify the correspondence with
quantities in a problem. They calculate accurately and
efficiently, express numerical answers with
a degree of precision appropriate for the problem context. In the
elementary grades, students
give carefully formulated explanations to each other. By the
time they reach high school they
have learned to examine claims and make explicit use of
definitions.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP7
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/
MP7/) Look for and make use
of structure.
Mathematically proficient students look closely to discern a
pattern or structure. Young
students, for example, might notice that three and seven more is
the same amount as seven and
16. three more, or they may sort a collection of shapes according to
how many sides the shapes have.
Later, students will see 7 × 8 equals the well remembered 7 × 5
+ 7 × 3, in preparation for
learning about the distributive property. In the expression x +
9x + 14, older students can see
the 14 as 2 × 7 and the 9 as 2 + 7. They recognize the
significance of an existing line in a
geometric figure and can use the strategy of drawing an
auxiliary line for solving problems. They
also can step back for an overview and shift perspective. They
can see complicated things, such
as some algebraic expressions, as single objects or as being
composed of several objects. For
example, they can see 5 - 3(x - y) as 5 minus a positive number
times a square and use that to
realize that its value cannot be more than 5 for any real numbers
x and y.
CCSS.MATH.PRACTICE.MP8
(HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/MATH/PRACTICE/

regularity in repeated reasoning.

Mathematically proficient students notice if calculations are
repeated, and look both for general
methods and for shortcuts. Upper elementary students might
notice when dividing 25 by 11 that
they are repeating the same calculations over and over again,
and conclude they have a repeating
decimal. By paying attention to the calculation of slope as they
repeatedly check whether points
are on the line through (1, 2) with slope 3, middle school
students might abstract the equation (y
- 2)/(x - 1) = 3. Noticing the regularity in the way terms cancel
when expanding (x - 1)(x + 1), (x - 1)
(x + x + 1), and (x - 1)(x + x2 + x + 1) might lead them to the
general formula for the sum of a
geometric series. As they work to solve a problem,
mathematically proficient students maintain
oversight of the process, while attending to the details. They
18. continually evaluate the
reasonableness of their intermediate results.
Connecting the Standards for Mathematical Practice to the
Standards
for Mathematical Content
The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe ways in
which developing student
practitioners of the discipline of mathematics increasingly ought
to engage with the subject
matter as they grow in mathematical maturity and expertise
throughout the elementary, middle
and high school years. Designers of curricula, assessments, and
professional development should
all attend to the need to connect the mathematical practices to
mathematical content in
mathematics instruction.
The Standards for Mathematical Content are a balanced
combination of procedure and
understanding. Expectations that begin with the word
"understand" are often especially good
opportunities to connect the practices to the content. Students
who lack understanding of a
topic may rely on procedures too heavily. Without a flexible
base from which to work, they may
19. be less likely to consider analogous problems, represent
problems coherently, justify conclusions,
apply the mathematics to practical situations, use technology
mindfully to work with the
mathematics, explain the mathematics accurately to other
students, step back for an overview, or
deviate from a known procedure to find a shortcut. In short, a
lack of understanding effectively
prevents a student from engaging in the mathematical practices.
In this respect, those content standards which set an expectation
of understanding are potential
"points of intersection" between the Standards for Mathematical
Content and the Standards for
Mathematical Practice. These points of intersection are intended
to be weighted toward central

using this grocery task? Explain how? (10 pts)
a. What does this practice look like when students are engaging

task? (Consider your grade level selection) (10pts)
33. b. What could a teacher do within a lesson to encourage

task? (10 pts)
5. What do you hope for your students to learn mathematically
as a result of
engaging this task? (10 pts) [Think about mathematical
concepts, ideas,
representations etc.]
My answer to first part:
First, this is a common issue that happens in my daily life.
Second, the mathematical
strategy I am going to analyze this problem is called equal
probability. However, there
is some other information that needs to be clarified. Such as,
does these two lines have
equally efficient servers? And how long does it take each
customer to pay and leave?
In this question, Server efficiency and customer efficiencies are
the main factors or the
key to analyzing this problem.
If the servers and customers are equally efficient, the critical
34. quantity here is the number of
total items in the shopping line, not the number of customers.
For example, let the server
efficiency be X second/each item. Let the customer efficiency
be Y second/each transaction
!
(assume customer pay and leave right away). The first line will
need at least 11x+4y seconds
to complete four transactions. The other queue will need at least
19x+1y seconds to complete
one transaction. And to solve the equations lets x= 1sec/item,
y=2sec/transaction.
1) the first queue: 11(1)+4(2)=19secs
The first queue needs at least 19 seconds to complete all
transactions.
2) the second queue: 19(1)+1(2)=21secs
The second queue needs at least 21 seconds to complete all
transactions. 11x+4y<19x+1y
I will be joining the shopping line has four customers and with
three, five, two, and one
item in four shopping carts.
In conclusion, servers efficiency and shoppers efficiency are
essential information that
will directly affect our decision. And, do the two queues have
the same situations? However,
it can be different answers in different cases. If the server and
customer efficiency are the
same, the numbers of total items will be your number one
consideration. If not or the situation
even complicated, like different customer pay in various
methods, go to the shorter line.
