1. Find a way to have each single type of flower in a separate box using the least amount of
money in US dollars. Daisies are $1, begonias are $1.50, cannas are $2, roses are $2.50 and
cattleya orchids are $3. Find the area of each box and figure out which flower would be the
cheapest to use in it.
2. 7x3= 21
5x4= 20
5x3=15
6x1= 6
2x2= 4 (3 - 1 and 5 - 3 from sides of box.)
Total= 66 sq feet (not needed)
21 x $1= $21
20 x $1.50= $30
15 x $2= $30
6 x $2.50= $15
4 x $3= $12
Total= $108

Answer: The least amount of money for each section of the flower boxes with a different
type of flower in each box is $108.

4. The answer for this problem was easy to see because the flower box had to do with area
and how much it would cost per square foot for a different flower. In my opinion the POW
was reasonable in the fact to show us how some problems may be in the future. I know that
I am correct in my answer because I have done the problem over a few times and it is always
the same. My conclusion is that the the problem was easy yet fun as well as a refresher of
previous math.

18^2 + 21^2 = c^2
324 + 441 = c^2
18 + 21 + 14 + 31 = 84
C^2 = 764
= 27.7
or 28 rounded
14^2 + 27.7^2 = c^2
196 + 767.3 = c^2
c^2 = 963
= 31

The problem is asking how to find the perimeter of the object and the challenge is to use the
pythagorean theorem to calculate each of the separate triangles to find the hypotenuse of
the triangles. The ultimate ending is to find the complete numbers for all sides and to add
them together to get the perimeter. 2
