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.

In order for the teacher to better visualize the test performance for his class, he needs to present the mark distribution in chart form. A better chart visualizer is the histogram, which will show the frequency of marks against range of test scores. A bar graph will not be used because the rectangles need to touch one another.
In a bar graph, the rectangles do not touch each other. Therefore, it will not be a good chart visualizer.

to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile; we find total distance and total time the athlete takes in running.
Total distance run by athlete=7+3=10 miles
Total time=45+15 =60 minutes
The athlete runs 10 miles in 60 minutes. For the athlete to cover 1 mile, he will run for a time less than 60 minutes. Thus, in 1 mile, the athlete takes:

So, in 6 minutes, the athlete covers 1 mile.

Explanation
We use the order of operation to solve for the unknown value of x.
3(3x+3)=8x+5
Multiply 3 with each number in the brackets
(3*3x)+(3*3)=8x+5
9x+9=8x+5
Subtract 9 from both sides
9x+9-9=8x+5-9
9x=8x-4
Subtract 8x on both sides
9x-8x=8x-8x-4
x=-4
Thus, the unknown value of x is -4.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
To solve this problem, we need to have all options in fraction form.
74Â
 95 = 
7/8 = 3/8
0.72 = 72/100
74% = 74/100
Now, find the least common denominator of 95, 8, and 100. The least common denominator is 3800, which we multiply by each fraction as follows:
74/95*3800=2960
7/8*3800=3325
72/100*3800=2736
74/100*3800=2812
We can see that the fraction 7/8 is the greatest among the given options.

Explanation
Let x be the original price of the recliner.
Step 1: Apply the 30% discount
The recliner is on sale for 30% less than the original price:
SalePrice=x−0.3x=0.7x
Step 2: Apply the 25% coupon discount
The consumer gets an additional 25% off the sale price:
FinalPrice=0.7x−0.25(0.7x) = 0.525x
Step 3: Solve for x
The consumer paid $237, so:
0.525x=237
​ x≈451.43x
Rounding to the nearest dollar, the original price is $451.
Correct Answer is B
