Directions: Read. Write an equation and solve each problem.
1. The maximum height a Rüppel’s
Vulture can fly is 37,000 feet,
which is 8,000 feet more than a
Bar-headed Goose. Write and solve
an equation to find the maximum
flight height for a Bar-headed
Goose.
2. A common crane can fly 4,000 feet
higher than a Bar-headed Goose.
Write and solve an equation to find
the maximum height a common
crane can fly.
3. A Whooper Swan can fly at a
maximum height that is 6,000 feet
less than a common crane. Write
and solve an equation to find the
maximum height that a Whooper
Swan can fly.
4. Use a number line to compare the
maximum flight heights for a Bar-
headed Goose, a Whooper Swan, a
common crane, and a Rüppel’s
Vulture.
