Answer: B.

First, we have to have a question for this problem to create a solution. So, the example sentence is how many granola bars does each student get.

Second, an algebraic expression has a variable in it. So since we are trying to find the number of students, the variable is s.

From looking at C and D, we can already eliminate them. This question has mostly multiplication and division words in it, so it can't be addition and multiplication.

Now, we only have A and B left. A tip on  how to figure this out is reading the word problem out thoroughly. I will use B as an example. 5 boxes of granola bars were multiplied by the number of granola bars each student got. From reading this, it makes more sense. But it does change the example sentence, though.

I hope this helped and this is the right answer!

What is the mean for the following set of data? 12, 10, 11, 13, 14 10 12 13 14
jonny [76]

The mean is calculated by adding all the data values together, and then dividing the sum by the number of data values.

12+10+11+13+14+10+12+13+14=109

109÷9≈12.1

<u>The mean of the data set is about 12.1.</u>

Solve: (x + 5)^2 + 15 = 64

(x + 5)^{2} + 15 = 64   Subtract 15 from both sides
<span>(x + 5)^{2} = 49   Find the square root of both sides to cancel out the </span>(x + 5) ^{2}
x + 5 = 7   Subtract 5 from both sides
x = 2
