Problem/activity:
For each pair of numbers, determine if the values are equivalent. Explain your reasoning for each one.
a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Concept/skill: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.

standard_description: Count to 100 by ones and by tens.
problem_activity: Suppose Brett and Andre each throw a baseball into the air. The height of Brett's baseball is given by
$${h(t)=-16t^2+79t+6}$$
where
$$h$$
is in feet and
$$t$$
is in seconds. The height of Andre's baseball is given by the graph below.
[IMG]
Brett claims that his baseball went higher than Andre’s, and Andre says that his baseball went higher.
Who is right?
How long is each baseball airborne?
Construct a graph of the height of Brett’s throw as a function of time on the same set of axes as the graph of Andre’s throw, and explain how this can confirm your claims to parts (a) and (b).
