Act One
Act Two
- Teacher noteCompared to a $100 raise each month, Woody (the bartender) offered Sam (the owner in the tie) a "raise" amount per week that Sam quickly accepted.
Poll the class: who do they think is getting the better deal?
Encourage students to come up with a "raise" amount per week where Woody would settle for the better deal.
Make a class list visible where they can post their values that they think Woody is getting the better deal. Get the class to write an inequality that represents the better deal.
Once the better deal for Woody is established, have students write two more inequalities:
1) When Sam gets the better deal.
2) When it's an equivalent deal.
