Correct Answer is A
Explanation
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
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
In this problem, we need to find the amount of gratuity the couple will leave. The gratuity is 16% of the total bill. Before solving the problem, the following are terms and their meaning in percent problems:
- Is means equals
- Of means multiply
- What means unknown (variable)
If we let x be the amount of gratuity, then translating the given problem into a mathematical equation becomes:
Now we evaluate the above equation noting that of means multiply.
So, the value of x=9.376 and to the nearest cent, x=9.38
There, a couple will leave a gratuity of $9.38.
Correct Answer is D
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 A
Explanation
We solve for the value of x by following the order of operations
3(x-2)=15
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Thus, the value of x is 8.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Correlation of two variables falls into:
Positive correlation: an increase in one variable causes another variable to increase
Negative correlation: an increase in one variable causes another one to decrease
No correlation: a change in one variable does not cause any response in another variable.
From the given choices
Option a is no correlation
Option b is a no correlation
Option c is a negative correlation
Option d is a positive correlation
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We use given information to find how much ammonia is need to make the specified solution.
We are told, one gallon of cleaning solution requires 10oz of ammonia. Expressing this mathematically yields two options:
\(\frac{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}\)or\(\frac{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}\)
Now we find how much ammonia is needed using option two.
\(51\ gallon\ of\ solution\ *\frac{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}\ =\ 510\ oz\ of\ ammonia\)
From the above equation, gallon of solution will cancel, and oz of ammonia is left.
Therefore, the solution will require 510 oz of ammonia.
