The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of climate change on coffee production. Researchers found that suitable land for coffee production could decline by up to 50% by 2050 due to rising temperatures and changing rain patterns associated with climate change. Arabica coffee was found to be especially threatened, as its growing regions may shrink by 88% under a business-as-usual scenario of increasing greenhouse gas emissions. The study concludes that climate change poses a severe risk to the coffee industry worldwide.

Fred and his wife like gardening, so Fred bought some plants and posts from the garden center. If he tied each plant to a post, three plants would be left without a post. However, if he tied three plants to each post, one post would have only two plants tied to it. The question is: how many plants and posts did Fred originally buy?
Mrs. Hernandez bought several items that each cost the same number of cents as the number of items purchased. She received $1 and 7 coins in change from $10, so each item must have cost 3 cents.
Alice has a 20 gallon tub of water. She will pour out half the water, then half of what remains, and half of the remainder, repeating until the tub is empty. This will take her 4 pours to empty the tub.
A 10% raise followed by a 10% cut results in the original salary, while a 10% cut followed by a 10% raise results in a 1% higher salary. Therefore, it is better to take the raise first, then the cut.

This document outlines a lesson plan for teaching pre-algebra concepts. It includes introducing absolute value using real-life examples and a game. Students will learn integer operations using number lines and chips. Algebraic expressions will be explored through station activities and partner work. Equations can be solved through diagrams or fact families. Finally, students will work on pattern problems using toothpick puzzles, number tricks, and the Tower of Hanoi to generalize patterns, an important algebraic thinking skill. The overall goal is for students to better understand abstract algebraic concepts through hands-on and real-world examples and models.
Writing and solving equations can be abstract and confusing for students. Learn nonconventional ways to encourage flexible thinking and develop a deeper understanding of inverse relationships, fact families, and variables representation. Walk away with three easy-to-use activities to expand students' toolkit for solving equations.
