The students are to pick out a pumpkin and determine the weight of the pumpkin with the use of a scale. The students will then be given a worksheet that will ask them to create a linear equation to solve for the total cost, the students will evaluate linear equations given certain restraints, and the students will solve these linear equations. The goal of this activity is to have students understand linear equations and their use in everyday scenarios.
