Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Concept/skill: 
Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions.

Answer: 
No. Completing neither of these problems requires replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other equation.

standard_description: Know precise definitions of angle, circle, perpendicular line, parallel line, and line segment, based on the undefined notions of point, line, distance along a line, and distance around a circular arc.
problem_activity: Problem 1
All the circles below have congruent radii, but different centers.
What polygons can you create from the marked points in the following figure?
Describe the features of each polygon, and use the properties of circles to justify your reasoning.

Problem 2
Margi has three cats. She has heard that cats in a room position themselves at equal distances from one another and wants to test that theory. Margie notices that Simon, her tabby cat, is in the center of her bed (at S), while JoJo, her Siamese, is lying on her desk chair (at J). If the theory is true, where will she find Mack, her calico cat? Use the scale drawing of Margie’s room shown below, together with (only) a compass and straight edge. Place an M where Mack will be if the theory is true.

Problem 3
The cats changed positions. Mack left the room. Simon and JoJo also moved but stayed the same distance apart. Draw two new locations for Simon and JoJo.
