PREALGEBRA (Friday)

Mark Up and Selling Price



Grocery Store Mark Ups

The amount of that the cost of an item will increase is called a MARKUP.  The increase is based on a percentage of the cost.

The SELLING PRICE is the sum of the original cost and the mark up.

HOW DO I?:  selling price = price + mark up

Consider proportion!

PROBLEM:
After discovering your fate, create a five menu item for your specific job.  Mr. V and Mr. R will be the go to sources for your supplies.  You must consider how much mark up is enough for you to stay in business and how much is too much so that you customers buy their stuff elsewhere!

LT:  Students will be graphing parabolas AND finding specific details of each of the parabolas.

HINT:  To find the VERTEX, find the LINE OF SYMMETRY (the exact 1/2 way point on the x-axis) in parabola.  Insert that x axis point into your original equation and you will find the y.  This y becomes your vertex point!

Your Task:
Complete 8-43!  You need to read this problem COMPLETELY!  After you are assigned a parabola.  You must study the parabola in depth.

• Does your parabola have any symmetry?  Search Symmetry to find details.  If it does, where would the fold be?  Do you think this works for all parabolas?  Why or Why not?
• Is there a highest or lowest point on the graph of your parabola?  If so, where is it?  The point is called a vertex.  Search vertex to find details.  Describe the parabola.
• Are there any special points on your parabola?  Which points do you think are important?  Are there any special points that you expected but do not exist for your parabola?
• How would you describe the shape of your parabola?  Is it pointing up or down?  Do the sides go straight up or down?  
• Anything else you want to describe about it?

Your Choices:

• Pic Collage
• PhotoWall
• Phoster
• Photo Mess
• Pic Stitch (Will need another app to create text into photos)
