1. 
2. -2+5n or 5n-2
3. (12s)+150 where s=number of students
4. 3(32)+1(53)=96+53=159 per hour, so 159h
9. √105 is irrational, -4 is an integer, 4/3 is a rational number, order is -4,3/4, √105
10. 3²=9, 4²=16, so between 3 and 4, but closer to 4, so √14≈4
11. that is the associative property, it deals with moving parentahees around
12. 2(6.25)+1(5.50)+2(2.75)=2(6.25+2.75)+1(5.50)=2(9)+5.5=18+5.5=23.5
13. yes, because they are both 2 less than 3 times of a number
14. maybe 18 times 3, so (4²+2) times 3=54
