Twelve less than thrice a number

Which of the following translates the phrase above into a mathematical expression?

We need to form a mathematical expression from the given word problem.

Let the unknown number be x.

Thrice a number is three times = 3x

Twelve less than thrice a number = 3x-12

Thus, the mathematical expression from the word problem is 3x-12

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.

Here we need to find the actual values of the additions and see the trend the student will use to estimate the given problem. The exact sum is as follows

35+192227

258+350=608

947+1032=1979

From the above calculations, it is evident that the student rounds up or down the ones place values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 694+7618.

694+7618=8312

We can approximate 8312 based on the provided choices is 8310.

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.

The median of a data set is found in two ways:

For an odd data set, the median fall in the (N+1)/2 th position.

For an even data set, the median is the average of the element in the (N/2)th and (N+1)/2 th positions.

To find the median of the given data set, we need to arrange the elements from the smallest to the largest as follows:

12, 12, 16, 18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 26, 35, 35

There are 11 elements in the data set. 11 is an odd number and the median fall in the (N+1)/2 th position.

Median =(11+1)/2=12/2=6 th position.

From the organized data, the element in the 6th position is 22, which is the required median for the data set.

In the given problem, we use the calculator to evaluate the product 1.9 * 0.75 = 1.425

To solve the equation this equation, we compute the multiplication of the two numbers using the calculator

3.60 * 0.75 = 2.7

Scatter plots can depict three correlations: positive, negative and no correlation. A positive correlation scatter plot reveals that as one variable increases, the other variable also increases as shown below

We use 1 L =1000 mL to convert between the two units. The conversion options of interconversions are:

And

We want millimeters, use the second option to change L to mL as:

Therefore, 2.5 L is equivalent to 2500 mL.

To change between L and mL, the following two options are used.
