Question 1.
If the scuba diver in Task 2 originally swam -12\(\frac{1}{2}\) feet per minute, for 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) minutes, how would this change the situation?
Answer:
The change in situation is -56.25 feet.

Explanation:
Distance travelled per minute = -12\(\frac{1}{2}\) feet
Time travelled = 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) minutes
Change in elevation = Distance traveled per minute × Time traveled
= -12\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 4\(\frac{1}{2}\)
Convert them into improper fractions
= –\(\frac{25}{2}\) × \(\frac{9}{2}\)
= –\(\frac{225}{4}\)
= -56.25 feet.

Question 4.
A butterfly is flying 8\(\frac{3}{4}\) feet above the ground. It descends at a steady rate to a spot 6\(\frac{1}{4}\) feet above the ground in 1\(\frac{2}{3}\) minutes. What is the butterfly’s change in elevation in feet per minute?
Answer:
The required change in elevation of the butterfly is 1.5 ft per min.

Explanation:
Given,
A butterfly is flying 8\(\frac{3}{4}\) feet above the ground.
It descends at a steady rate to a spot 6\(\frac{1}{4}\) feet above the ground in 1\(\frac{2}{3}\) minutes.
We have to find the butterfly’s change in elevation in feet per minute
Change in elevation = butterfly flying above ground – steady rate to a spot above the ground is
8\(\frac{3}{4}\) – 6\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{35}{4}\) – \(\frac{25}{4}\)
\(\frac{10}{4}\)
\(\frac{5}{2}\)
2.5 feet
Now change in elevation per minute
= 1\(\frac{2}{3}\)
=  \(\frac{5}{3}\)
Change in elevation
2.5 ÷ \(\frac{5}{3}\)
2.5 × \(\frac{3}{5}\)
1.5 feet per minute.

Question 5.
One scuba diver’s elevation changed by -15\(\frac{5}{8}\) feet every minute. This was 1\(\frac{1}{4}\) times the rate of change for a second scuba diver. What was the rate
of change in elevation of the second scuba diver in feet per minute? Show your work.
Answer:
12.5 or 12\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Explanation:
Given,
scuba diver’s elevation changed by -15\(\frac{5}{8}\) feet every minute.
second scuba diver rate of change is 1\(\frac{1}{4}\)
15\(\frac{5}{8}\) ÷ 1\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{125}{8}\) ÷ \(\frac{5}{4}\)
\(\frac{125}{8}\) × \(\frac{4}{5}\)
\(\frac{25}{2}\)
12.5 or 12\(\frac{1}{2}\).

Question 6.
Open Ended Write a real-world problem based on one of the contexts in the lesson that can be solved using multiplication or division of negative fractions or decimals.

Question 7.
Carl has 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups of blueberries. He is storing them in containers that each hold \(\frac{2}{3}\) cup. How many containers can he fill? Find the answer and interpret the result.
Answer:
The total number of containers that can be filled = 5\(\frac{11}{50}\).

Explanation:
The blueberries carl has = 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
= 3.5 cups
The amount of blueberries each container can store = \(\frac{2}{3}\)
= 0.67
Total cups = Total amount of blueberries to be stored ÷ Stored in one cup
= 3.5 cup ÷ 0.67
= 5.22
= 5\(\frac{11}{50}\).

Question 3.
Financial Literacy Tanisha takes a dance class that is priced as shown. The charge appears as negative on her account balance until she makes her monthly payment.

A. Show how to find the balance of Tanisha’s account for dance classes during a 4-week period in which she attends 3 classes per week.
Answer:

Answer:
$37.5

Explanation:
Amount per class is $12.50
Now we need to find out Tanisha’s account for 3 classes per week.
one class per week = $12.50
3 classes per week = $12.50 × 3
= $37.5

B. Reason Suppose the balance on Tanisha’s account for a 2-week period is -$100. If Tanisha attended at least 1 dance class per week, how many classes could she have attended each week? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
Tanisha attended 2 dance classes.
Given,
the balance on Tanisha’s account for a 2-week period is -$100
For 1 week it is – 100 ÷ 2
= -$50
Tanisha attended at least 1 dance class per week,
1 week = 1 dance class
Therefore Tanisha attended 2 dance classes for the balance on Tanisha’s account for a 2-week period is -$100.
