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, assess whether the following problem or activity is 'aligned' with the given Common Core standard in Mathematics.

standard_description: Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities.
problem_activity: 1. A youth group has a yard sale to raise money for a charity. The group earns $800 but decides to put its money in the bank for a while. The group considers two different banks:
Cool Bank pays simple interest at a rate of 4%, and the youth group plans to leave the money in the bank for 3 years.
Hot Bank pays an interest rate of 3% compounded annually, and the youth group plans to leave the money in the bank for 5 years.
Write a function to represent the amount of money earned at each bank. Then determine how much money the youth group would earn in each situation.
2. If the youth group needs the money quickly, which is the better choice? Explain your reasoning.
