Question 1103269: At 12:15 The elves 210 action figures ready for Santa. Then at 12:23 the elves had 298 action figures done.
What is their rate?
11 action figures per minute
How many action figures did they have made at 12:00?
Write an equation to model this situation (use
m for minutes and n for number of action figures).

if they are making 11 per minute, 15 minutes before 12, they had made 165 fewer.
This is 210-165=45 figures.
starting from 12:00, where x= the number of minutes after 12, the equation is n=45+11m
