Answer:

1/4x - 3 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When it says "three fewer," it means subtract three from one fourth of x. "Is" always means the equal sign. Knowing this, we get the equation:

1/4x - 3 = 12

PLEASE HELP ASAP ILL GIVE BRAINLY!!!variables & Constants

jolli1 [7]

Independent variables (IV): These are the factors or conditions that you manipulate in an experiment.

Dependent variable It is something that depends on other factors

A constant is a value or number that never changes in expression; it's constantly the same.

A control group in a scientific experiment is a group separated from the rest of the experiment, where the independent variable being tested cannot influence the results.

d = Diameter of wheels = 25 inches

s = Distance to be traveled by the wheels = 458 miles

Converting the miles to inches
