Congratulations! You have made it to the math cheerleading team. Just
imagine: a group of dedicated mathletes spreading the cheer of math
throughout the school! The best part about being on the math cheerleading
team is that you get paid… per cheer! Of course, since the team is a MATH
team, it takes a bit of calculating to figure out how much you get paid.
Here’s what the coach told you:
If you do 10 cheers, you get paid $2 per cheer (NOT BAD!)
You will get 10¢ less per cheer for every cheer over 10 cheers, but
you will get 10¢ more per cheer for every cheer under 10 cheers.
The question going around the team is “How many cheers do we need to do in
order to get the most money possible?”
Fill in the table below to find out (start at 10 cheers and work up and down)
Number of Cheers
Price per Cheer

$2.10 + 10¢ = $2.20

$2.00 + 10¢ = $2.10
10 × $2.00 = $20.00
