POW – April 21, 2008 Name ________________________

Option 1: The numbers 1 and 9 are two of five counting numbers that produce a sum of 25. Those same five numbers, when multiplied, give a product of 945. What are the other three numbers?


Option 2: A new operation symbol has been created in mathematics. Your task is to determine how the @ operation works. Based on the equations below, what would 7 @ 8 equal?

1 @ 2 = 5
3 @ 4 = 25
4 @ 5 = 41
5 @ 6 = 61
7 @ 8 = ____

Option 3: In 1980, a typical telephone number in the United States contained seven digits. Several areas of the country now must use ten-digit telephone numbers. If the entire country follows, exactly how many different ten-digit telephone numbers are available such that the first digit cannot be a 0 or 1 and the fourth cannot be a 0?

Option 1: Arranging heights

Consider these three facts:
a) Jay is shorter than Carrie.
b) Ashley is taller than Duane.
c) If Jay is the tallest, then Ashley is shorter than Ben; otherwise, Jay is the second shortest and Ashley is not the tallest.

Using those three facts, list the four people (Ashley, Jay, Carrie, and Duane) in order from shortest to tallest.



Option 2: Taking Stock Problem

A farmer had 19 animals on his farm—some chickens and some cows. He also knew that there were a total of 62 legs on the animals on the farm. How many of each kind of animal did he have? Use a visual form of representation to solve this problem.
