EXAMPLE 4 Solve a multi-step problem Lakes In 1900 the elevation of Mono Lake in California was about 6416 feet. From 1900 to 1950, the average rate of change in elevation was about – 0. 12 foot per year. From 1950 to 2000, the average rate of change was about – 0. 526 foot per year. Approximate the elevation in 2000.
EXAMPLE 4 Solve a multi-step problem SOLUTION STEP 1 Write a verbal model. New elevation (feet) = Original elevation (feet) + Average rate of change (feet) • Time passed (feet) STEP 2 Calculate the elevation in 1950. Use the elevation in 1900 as the original elevation. The time span 1950 – 1900 = 50 years. New elevation = 6416 +(– 0. 12)(50) Substitute values. = 6416 + (– 6) Multiply – 0. 12 and 50. = 6410 Add 6416 and – 6.
EXAMPLE 4 Solve a multi-step problem STEP 3 Calculate the elevation in 2000. Use the elevation in 1950 as the original elevation. The time span 2000 – 1950 = 50 years. New elevation = 6410 +(– 0. 526)(50) Substitute values. = 6410 + (– 26. 3) Multiply – 0. 526 and 50. = 6383. 7 Add 6410 and – 26. 3
EXAMPLE 4 Solve a multi-step problem ANSWER The elevation in 2000 was about 6383. 7 feet above sea level.

GUIDED PRACTICE 11. for Example 3 and 4 0. 8 (– x) (– 1) = 0. 8 (– 1) (–x) Commutative property of multiplication = (0. 8) (– 1)) –x Associative property of multiplication = – 0. 8 –x Product of 0. 8 and – 1 is – 0. 8. Multiplicative property of 0. 8. = 0. 8 x
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 and 4 12. (– y)(– 0. 5)(– 6) = (– 0. 5)(– 6 ) (–y) Commutative property of multiplication = ((– 0. 5) (– 6)) – y Associative property of multiplication = 3 = – 3 y –y Product of – 0. 5 and – 6 is 3. Multiplicative property of 3.
GUIDED PRACTICE 12. for Example 3 and 4 Using the data in Example 4, approximate the elevation of Mono Lake in 1925 and in 1965. SOLUTION STEP 1 Write a verbal model. New elevation (feet) = Original elevation (feet) + Average rate of change (feet) • Time passed (feet) STEP 2 Calculate the elevation in 1950. Use the elevation in 1900 as the original elevation. The time span 1950 – 1900 = 50 years.
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 and 4 New elevation = 6416 + (– 0. 12)(50) Substitute values. = 6416 + (– 6) Multiply – 0. 12 and 50. = 6410 Add 6416 and – 6. STEP 3 Calculate the elevation in 1925. Use the elevation in 1900 as the original elevation. The time span 1925 – 1900 = 25 years.
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 and 4 New elevation = 6416 +(– 0. 12)(25) Substitute values. = 6416 + (– 3) Multiply – 0. 12 and 25. = 6413 Add 6416 and – 3.
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 and 4 STEP 4 Calculate the elevation in 1965. Use the elevation in 1950 as the original elevation. The time span 1965 – 1950 = 15 years. New elevation = 6410 +(– 0. 526)(15) Substitute values. = 6410 + (– 7. 89) Multiply – 0. 526 and 15. = 6402. 11 Add 6410 and – 7. 89.
