standard_description: Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., p^(2)). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of Ö2, show that Ö2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.

Lena paid \$18.96 for 3 pounds of coffee.
What is the cost per pound for this coffee?
How many pounds of coffee could she buy for \$1.00?
Draw a graph in the coordinate plane of the relationship between the number of pounds of coffee and the total cost.
In this situation, what is the meaning of the slope of the line you drew in part (c)?
