MJD 4.4 February 13 =Big Idea: Many important practical and mathematical applications involve comparing quantities of one kind or another; it is important to know which method to use and how we should use them. =  __  Investigation 4: Comparing by Finding Rates __  __  Essential Question: __ __//    What methods are there for comparing things? //__ //Spheres: c=.6cents///1x //Cubes: c=//.8cents/x //Cylinders: c=.8 cents///x
 * //Write an equation relating the cost (c) and the number of beads (x) for each type of bead.//**

//Follow Up 1.**Which unit rate would be most useful if you were trying to figure out the number of beads you could buy with a certain amount of money?**// How many beads you get per cent. //**2. Which unit rate would be most useful if you were trying to figure out how much money a certain number of beads cost?**// How many cents you need per bead.
