Problem/activity:
You’re mixing ingredients for cookies. The recipe says to combine 6 tablespoons, or ¾ stick, of butter with 1 cup of sugar. You accidentally mix in a whole stick of butter (8 tablespoons) with the cup of sugar. How can you fix this?


Concept/skill: 
Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

Answer: 
Yes. This problem solves a real-world problem involving mixing ingredients for cookies. A student doing this problem would need to reason about equivalent ratios of butter amounts to sugar amounts.

Now, does the problem or activity shown below enable students to learn the full intent of the following concept or skill?

standard_description: Interpret the parameters in a linear or exponential function in terms of a context.
problem_activity: Task
California is in the fifth year of a drought. Towns have been asked to decrease water use across the state. The graph below shows the water storage in Lake Sonoma, a reservoir in Northern California from 1988, shortly after it was first filled, until February 1, 2015.
What questions do you have looking at the graph?
Describe some of the features of the graph.
What might explain these features?  (Consider data collection, weather events and reservoir management decisions.)
Based on the given information, should the region that depends on Lake Sonoma for water use implement additional water conservation measures?
