If x represents the width of a rectangle and length is four less than three times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?
4-3x
3-4x
4x-3
3x-4
Correct Answer : D
To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.
First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is three times width. Mathematically, this means
Length=3*width=3*x=3x
Again, the length is 4 less than 3 times width of the rectangle. Thus, the length of rectangle in terms of width becomes:
Length =3x-4
This is the required equation.

we need to find the net income of the nurse in 4 weeks from the weekly net income.
Weekly net income=gross income-total tax
Total tax=federal income tax+state income tax+Social Security tax

: we are to find the selling price of the sweater after subtracting the mark off price.
Mark off value=mark off rate*original price
Mark of value=25%*$87
We convert 25% into a fraction, which become 25/100=0.25. Then
Mark of value=0.25*$87=$21.75
The selling price of the sweater will be the original price less the mark off value. Then,

Thus, the approximate selling price of the sweater is $65.

scatter plots can of three types: positive, negative and no correlation. A positive correlation scatter plot shows that as one variable increase, the other variable increases. A positive correlation can be visually depicted below.

In a negative correlation, the change in one variable is inversely proportional to another variable. That is, as one variable increases, the other variable decreases as shown below.

The third type of scatter plot is a no-correlation scatter plot. In this type of plot, there is no defined relationship between one variable and another one as in the curve below.

If we look at the relationship between the time the student listens to music and his test score, it is evident that no relationship exists between the two variables. Thus, this is a type of no correlation scatter plot.

the median of a data set is the element that is found on the middle position. It is found by organizing the elements from the smallest to largest.
The data set above arranged from the smallest to largest is:
11, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 17, 17, 18, 22, 26
The number of elements is odd and the median is found in the (N+1)/2 th position. Here N=11, and the median falls in (11+1)/2=12/2=6 th position.
The element 14 falls in the 6th position, which is our median of the given data set.

from the given estimations, we can find the actual addition of the numbers and see a trend the student utilizes to find their estimates. The exact sum is as follows
24+190=214
151+319=470
974+1022=1996
From the above evaluation, we can clearly see the students approximates the value in the ones values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 452+5017.
452+5017=5469
We can approximate 5469 based on the provided choices to 5470.
