5) You are purchasing a game for $30. You have a 5% off coupon and sales tax is 5%. What
will your final price be? Does it matter if you take off the coupon first or add in the tax first?
6) You have ten coupons that allow you to take 10% off the sales price of a jacket, and for
some strange reason, the store is going to allow you to use all ten coupons! Does this mean
you get the jacket for free? Let's really think about what would happen at the checkout.
First, the teller would scan the price tag on the jacket, and the computer would show the
price is $100. After the teller scans the first coupon, the computer will take 10% off of
$100, and show the price is $90. (Right? Think about why this is.) Then after the teller scans
the second coupon, the computer will take 10% off of $90.
(a) Continue this reasoning to fill in the table below showing the price of the jacket (y) after
you apply x coupons.
(b) Make a graph showing the price of the jacket from x = 0 to x = 10 coupons applied.…

- 3. A scientist recorded the movement of a pendulum for 10 s. The scientist began recording when the pendulum was at its resting position. The pendulum then moved right (positive displacement) and left (negative displacement) several times. The pendulum took 4 s to swing to the right and the left and then return to its resting position. The pendulum's furthest distance to either side was 6 in. Graph the function that represents the pendulum's displacement as a function of time.
