What is true about 3 times 9 ? 1) it’ is 3times smaller than 9 2) it is 3 less than 9 3) it is 3times as much as 9 4) it is 3 more than 9

3 is the correct answer (see explanations for each possible choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cannot be right because 3 times smaller than 9 would be 3 as 1/3*9=3

2 cannot be right because 3 less than 9 is 9-3=6

3 is right because 3 times as much as 9 is 9*3=27

4 cannot be right because 3 more than 9 is 3+9=12

Step-by-step explanation:

First we eliminate any answers that can't be the answer.

2) can be eliminated because it implies subtraction instead of multiplication. Same with 4).

Now it is narrowed down to 1) and 3).

1) it is 3 times smaller than 9

3) it is 3 times as much as 9

It is not 1). The keywords 'times smaller' implies division.

So the answer is 3).

Hope it helps!

step-by-step explanation:

the options are kind of confusing. i can tell you what i see going on here when i look at the graph.

the class and exam medians are closely related, and it looks like the low outlier on the exam did pull the median lower. [tex][/tex]

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
