Garcia MAT222: Intermediate Algebra (GSQ1433A) Instructor Linda Seeger August 19‚ 2014 Solving Proportions This week I learned about solving proportions. Rightfully so‚ on this assignment I have to prove or show what I’ve learned and retained by solving two problems. In this essay I will attempt to solve two problems from our textbook‚ the first one is problem 56 located on page 437 and the second one is problem 10 located on page 444 of our Elementary and Intermediate Algebra textbook.

Solve a Problem PHL/458 March 29‚ 2014 Daryl Korinek Solve a Problem To solve a problem it takes a creative way to solve that problem. There is a process to solving any problem in a creative manner and the creative process has four stages: 1) searching for the challenge‚ 2) expressing the problem‚ 3) investigating the problem‚ and 4) producing the idea (Ruggiero‚ 2009). The first stage in the creative process is to search for a possible challenge and this entails either an obvious problem
