YOUR SITUATION: The senior class of Serious Tech High School decided to have an ice cream party. They decide on ice cream cones. But being independent thinkers they each want to have a different cone. But the school will only provide three flavors of ice cream: vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. They know if they only do one scoop cones, they will only get three different cones. The students then figured out how many different cones they could make if they made double scoop cones. YOUR TASK: There are 80 students in the senior class of Serious Tech High School. How many scoops of ice cream would have to be used in each cone in order to make a different cone for each student in the senior class?

Equations and Inequations

Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.

Linear Functions

A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
