Dear Student,
Please find attached your summer review packet for Algebra 1. The problems in
this packet are taken from Prealgebra and they should be familiar to you. Please
complete the assignment without the use of a calculator. If you need review, you
can use the attached websites for additional information. Internet access is
available at all public libraries.
The packet is due the first day of class and will be graded. To receive full credit,
you will need to show all work. This assignment will count toward your first quarter
grade and your first quiz of the year will be on this material. Don’t wait until the
last minute!! A good overall resource for math help is: www.purplemath.com
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the High School at:
860-844-3014 or you can email Mr. Coxon after August 23rd at:
coxonl@granby.k12.ct.us.
We are looking forward to seeing you on the first day of school!

Juan's Arcade has an entrance fee of $5.00, but his video games
only cost 25¢ a piece. The equation M = 0.25v + 5 indicates
the amount of money, M, that it costs to play v video games
at Juan's. Using this equation, how much would it cost to play
15 video games?
