To solve this riddle worksheet, you need to find the answers to each riddle and then use those answers to fill in the blanks below each riddle number.
Let's go through each riddle and find its answer:
1) The riddle asks, "Why did the teacher wear sunglasses?" This is not explicitly given, so we need to think of a common reason why someone would wear sunglasses, such as protecting their eyes from the sun.
2) The answer to the second riddle is "POLYNOMIAL." This is a term used in algebra to describe an expression consisting of variables, coefficients, and exponents combined using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
3) The answer to the third riddle is "SCATTERPLOT." A scatter plot is a type of graph used to display and compare two sets of data by representing each data point as an ordered pair on a coordinate plane.
4) The fourth riddle is missing some information, but we can see that the answer should be a word that indicates "2 solutions that are the same." Such a word is "REPEATING" or "DUPLICATE."
5) The fifth riddle is missing some information as well. However, we can tell that the answer should be a word that represents an inequality and has more than one solution. "INEQUALITY" fits this description.
6) The sixth riddle asks for a word that represents the relationship between x and y. This term is "FUNCTION." A function is a mathematical relationship where each input (x) has a unique output (y).
7) The answer to the seventh riddle is "COEFFICIENT." A coefficient is a number or symbol that multiplies a variable in an algebraic expression.
8) The eighth riddle is missing some information, but we can see that it asks for a term that represents the intersection of two inequalities in a feasible region. This term is "FEASIBLE POINT" or "COMMON REGION."
9) The answer to the ninth riddle is "RELATION." A relation is a set of ordered pairs where the first element of each pair is related to the second element.
10) The last riddle is missing some information, but we can see that it asks for a term that represents "a number," which is a "CONSTANT."
Now, with the answers in hand, you can fill in the blanks for each riddle number using the corresponding letters of the answers:
1) Different x's: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Answer: SUNGLASS
2) Monomial or sum of monomials: P O L Y N O M I A L
3) Set of data graphed as ordered pairs in a coordinate plane: S C A T T E R P L O T
4) 2 solutions that are the same: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Answer: REPEATING
5) <, >, ≤, ≥, has more than one solution: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Answer: INEQUALITY
6) Relations between x and y: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Answer: FUNCTION
7) Number in front of a variable: C O E F F I C I E N T
8) Intersection of two inequalities of a feasible region: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Answer: COMMON POINT
9) Set of ordered pairs: R E L A T I O N
10) A number: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Answer: CONSTANT
