Astudent solved this problem by working backward.

a number is multiplied by 7. then 29 is added to the product. this sum is then divided by 2. the answer is 46. what was the original number?

student's solution - the answer was 46. if this was the result of dividing by 2, the number at this point was 92. if this was the result of adding 29, the number at this point was 63. if this was the result of multiplying by 7, the original number was 9.

solve this problem using a similar strategy.

a number is multiplied by 10. then 32 is added to the product. this sum is then divided by 4. the answer is 28.

what was the original number?

Data for the height of a model rocket launch in the air over time are shown in the table. darryl predicted that the height of the rocket at 8 seconds would be about 93 meters. did darryl make a good prediction? yes, the data are best modeled by a quadratic function. the value of the function at 8 seconds is about 93 meters. yes, the data are best modeled by a linear function. the first differences are constant, so about 93 meters at 8 seconds is reasonable. no, the data are exponential. a better prediction is 150 meters. no, the data are best modeled by a cubic function. a better prediction is 100 meters.
