Dylan, Alan, Bruce, and Cecil are brothers. Dylan weighs d pounds. Alan weighs 3 pounds more than twice what Dylan weighs. Bruce weighs 12 pounds less than three times what Dylan weighs. If Cecil weighs the same as the combined weight of Bruce and Alan, what is Cecil’s weight in terms of Dylan’s weight (d)?
Part A
Alan weighs 3 pounds more than twice what Dylan weighs. Write an expression to represent Alan’s weight in terms of Dylan’s weight.
Part B
Bruce weighs 12 pounds less than three times what Dylan weighs. Write an expression for Bruce's weight in terms of Dylan's weight
Part C
Cecil weighs the same as the combined weight of Bruce and Alan. Use the expressions you found in parts A and B to write an expression for Cecil's weight in terms of Dylan’s weight.
Part D
Assume that Dylan weighs 45 pounds. Use the expression from part C to calculate Cecil’s weight.
Part E
Recall the linear expression for Cecil’s weight in part D. Before plugging values into it, could you have simplified the expression? If yes, explain how.
Part F
Simplify the expression (2d + 3) + (3d − 12).
Part G
Dylan weighs 45 pounds. Use the simplified expression you found in Part F to recalculate Cecil’s weight. Show your work.
Part H
Did you get the same answer for Cecil’s weight in parts D and G? What can you conclude about the expressions you developed in parts D and G?
Part I
Let's try something a bit different. The four brothers know that Bruce weighs more than Alan. Write an expression to represent how much more Bruce weighs than Alan. Write the in terms of Dylan’s weight, d.
Part J
Dylan weighs 45 pounds. Use the expression you derived in part I to calculate how much more Bruce weighs than Alan.
Part K
Now simplify the expression (3d − 12) − (2d + 3) you wrote in part I.
art L
Dylan weighs 45 pounds. Use the simplified expression you found in part K to recalculate how much more Bruce weighs than Alan. Did you get the same answer as in part J? If not, be sure to check your work, particularly the positive and negative signs.
