Now that you have practiced using algebraic expressions to model real-world scenarios, put your skills on display by completing the Error Analysis Table. In the table, you are presented with four real-world scenarios and algebraic expressions that incorrectly model each situation. Explain the error in each expression. Then provide the algebraic expression that correctly models each scenario. A sample problem is included in the table to help guide you through this assignment.
