Example:
Concept/skill: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.

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
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Answer: 
Yes. This problem involves understanding fractions and division to divide rational numbers, such as 1, -4, 4, and -1. This problem also involves an understanding of multiplication: if p and q are integers, then -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).

Now, determine whether the following problem or activity can enable students to understand the concepts or skills in the provided description.

standard_description: Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.
problem_activity: A bakery sells small cakes for
$${ {{$1}}0}$$
each. At this price, the bakery typically sells
$${100}$$
cakes per week.
The owner of the bakery wants to increase the price of the cake in order to maximize revenue. She determines that for each
$${{$1}}$$
increase in price, she sells
$$5$$
fewer cakes per week.
a.  Which function represents the weekly revenue,
$${R(x)}$$
, the owner of the bakery can expect to earn from the cakes based on
$$x$$
increases in price by
$${{$1}}$$
.
i.
$${R(x)}=(10-x)({100}+5x)$$
ii.
$${R(x)}=(10+x)({100}-5x)$$
iii.
$${R(x)}=(10-5x)({100}+x)$$
iv.
$${R(x)}=(10+5x)({100}-x)$$
b.  At what price will the owner of the bakery earn the maximum weekly revenue from sales of the small cakes?
