What is an Expression?

In mathematics, an expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations formed according to rules dependent on the context.

A.) Let the male cheetah's average speed for the last month be represented by x.

Given the male cheetah runs at a speed of 26 mph, that is 30% faster than his average last month.

x + 30% of x = 26 mph

1.30x = 26

x = 20 mph

Hence, the male cheetah's average speed for the last month is 20 mph.

B.) Sadie makes 1.5 liters of iced tea. She pours a liter into a pitcher to take to her neighbor. Her sister drinks the remaining iced tea. Therefore,

Iced tea Sadie's sister drink  = 1.56 liters - 1 liter = 0.56 liter

Hence, the amount of tea Sadie’s sister drinks is 0.56 liters.
