LESSON 2.  Investigating A Problem  (Lab)

There are many problems that face society today.  Many are complicated like developing new energy sources and others problems are just everyday decisions.  A teenager may be more interested in how much money they have to buy a candy bar.   Math plays an important role in providing the information to make an informed decision. 

In lab we are going to investigate what is the best type of paper towel to purchase for the school to keep costs down.  We are going to use investigative tools to research the problems and then come up with data so we compare the different types of towels.  A decision can then be made on which is the best towel for the money.
