Question

ANYONE please help me :(

Answer 1

A company distributes free pencils to all the students of x schools. Each school has (x + 3) classes. The number of students in each class is 4 more than the number of classes in each school. Each student is given (x + 1) pencils.

Part A: Write an expression to show the total number of pencils distributed by the company in x schools. (4 points)

Part B: What does x(x + 3) represent? When simplified, what would be the degree and classification of this expression? (4 points)

Part C: How can you calculate the total number of students in each school? (2 points)

Answer 3

Part A:
Given no. of students in each class = no. of classes in each school + 4
as no. of classes is (x+3) so ,
no. of students in each class=(x+3)+4=x+7
Total no. of pencils pencils given to each students=(x+1)
so, no. of pencils given to each student of each class =(x+1)*(x+7) ; as each student of a class is being provided with (x+7) pencils
no. of pencils given to each school=(x+1)*(x+7)*(x+3) ; as there are (x+3) classes in each school
no of pencils given to x schools=(x+1)*(x+7)*(x+3)*x

Part B:
x*(x+3) represent the total no of classes x schools have
On simplifying,x(x+3)=x^2+3x
Its a second degree equation in x.

Part C:
Total no of student in each class=(x+7)
Total no of classes in each school=(x+3)
Total no of student in each school=(x+7)*(x+3)
