Comparing Money and Distance with Multiplication

The video tutorial explains two math problems involving algebraic expressions and equations. The first problem involves determining how much money James has, given that Minli has $5 more and a total of $33. The second problem involves calculating the distance of Paulette's house from school, given that Jessica's house is 15 miles away and 5 times farther than Paulette's. The tutorial uses variables, equations, and number lines to solve these problems, encouraging viewers to pause and think independently.

How much more money does Minli have compared to James?

• $5.00

• $3.00

• $10.00

• $8.00

If Minli has $33.00, how can we represent this using the variable m?

• m = 33

• m = 28

• m = 38

• m = 5

What equation represents the relationship between Minli's and James' money?

• m = j - 5

• m = j / 5

• m = j + 5

• m = j * 5

How much money does James have if Minli has $33.00?

• $33.00

• $25.00

• $30.00

• $28.00

What is the distance from Jessica's house to school?

• 10 miles

• 20 miles

• 15 miles

• 5 miles

If Jessica's house is 15 miles from school, how can we represent this using the variable j?

• j = 10

• j = 20

• j = 15

• j = 5

What equation represents the relationship between Jessica's and Paulette's distances from school?

• p = j * 5

• p = j / 5

• p = j - 5

• p = j + 5

How far is Paulette's house from school if Jessica's house is 15 miles away?

• 2 miles

• 4 miles

• 3 miles

• 5 miles

If Paulette's house is 3 miles from school, how can we represent this using the variable p?

• p = 3

• p = 10

• p = 5

• p = 15

What is the value of p if 5 times p equals 15?

• 2

• 1

• 3

• 4
