 Narrative
 The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.

Concept/skill: 
Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¬¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?

Answer: 
Yes. In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.

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

standard_description: Write arithmetic and geometric sequences both recursively and with an explicit formula, use them to model situations, and translate between the two forms.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Four sequences are shown below. Which one does not belong and why?
|  $${4, 8, 12, 16, 20 ...}$$  |    $${50, 46, 42, 38, 34, ...}$$    |
|------------------------------|-------------------------------------|
| $${1, 4, 16, 64, 216, ...}$$ | $${1600, 400, 100, 25, 12.5, ...}$$ |
Problem 2
Complete each sequence by filling in the missing terms. Then identify each sequence as arithmetic or geometric and name the common difference or common ratio.
a.
$${-2}$$
,
$$4$$
, ___, ___, ___,
$${28}$$
, ...
b.
$${{1\over2}}$$
, ___, ___,
$$4$$
,
$$8$$
, ___, …
c.
$$5$$
, ___, ___, ___,
$${2{1\over3}}$$
,
$${1{2\over3}}$$
, ...
d.   ___,
$$3$$
,
$${-9}$$
, ___,
$$-81$$
, ___, …
Problem 3
Write a recursive formula for each sequence.
a.
$${11, \space14,\space 17,\space 20,\space 23, …}$$
b.
$${{1\over9},\space {1\over3},\space1,\space 3,\space 9,\space …}$$
c.
$${32,\space 16,\space 8,\space 4,\space 2,\space …}$$
