Teacher Help Math

Introduction about teacher help math

Teacher help math is that the topics and problems on math. Math is the basics of all the subject and it very useful in real life. Teachers help math for the students in all chapters by performing step by step process. Teacher help math in every classes. Teacher help math to their students by working out problems and giving homework on the same model so that students can remember the steps of certain types of problems. The students learn many things about the math by their teacher help math. From kinder grade to college grade in all stages we study math and teacher help math on every grade.


Teacher help math problem and solution


Jack and Joe agree to meet in Chicago for the weekend. Jack travels 114 miles and Joe travels 96 miles. If Jack rate of speed is 6mph faster than Joe’s then at what rate of speed does Jack travel?
Solution

Take Joe’s speed = x,

Distance travel by Joe = 96 miles

Jack’s speed = x+6,

Distance travel by Jack =114 miles

Distance/speed = time, here time is constant.

Now `114/(x+6) ` = `96/x`

Cross multiply so it becomes 114x = 96x+ (96*6)

Subtract 96 x on both side as common

114x -96x=96x-96x+576

18x = 576

Divide by 18 on both sides

`(18x)/18` = `576/18`

x= 32 mph = Joe’s speed

So Jack speed = 32 + 6 = 38mph.

2. The sum of the ages of Nancy and her daughter is 55 years. If the age of the daughter is 16 years what will be the age of Nancy?

Solution

Let the age of Nancy be x years.

The age of her daughter =16 years.

Sum of two ages =(x+16) years.

But this sum is given as 55years.

So  x +16 = 55.

x =55-16

x =39.

Thus the age of the Nancy is 39 years

Understanding Daily Compound Interest Formula is always challenging for me but thanks to all math help websites to help me out.

Teacher help math problem


1. Tim and Tom leave the school at the same time traveling to their home in opposite directions to each other. Both of them travel for three hours and are then 360 miles apart. If Tim travels 10 miles per hour faster than Tom, find the average rate of speed for Tim and Tom.

Answer Tom speed is 55 mph and Tom speed is 65 mph

2. The sum of the ages of Peter and his son is 59 years. If the age of the son is 14 years what will be the age of peter?

Answer Peter age is 45

Open Ended Math Word Problems

open ended math word problems:

Open ended math word problems defines the math problem that are given in the word format.For example instead of using the math representation of math symbols they express the problem  in the word format.The open ended math problem exist when the problem happens in the real time.The open ended math problem is analyzed and the solution is extracted.Some of the problems are solved in the following.

Open Ended Math Word Problems

open ended math word problems Example 1:

Two farmers bought together 75 mangoes one bought 40 mangoes.How many mangoes did the other farmer buy?

Step 1:

It is important that when the word problem is converted to mathematical problem it is essential that its meaning should not be changed.

step 2:

The given problem exists between the two farmers.The two farmers bought together 75.

step 3:

Let the other farmer  who bought unknown mangoes be x.

In the open ended math word problems  the problem analyzed is between the two farmers.

step 4:

Hence the equation formed is

` 40 + X = 75`

step 4:

To find the other farmer who bought the unknown mangoes is solved

` x=75-40`

` x = 35`

step 5:

The other farmer  who bought mangoes will be 35.

step 6:

It satisfies the given equation and hence one farmer got 40 mangoes and the other farmer got 35 mangoes total of 75 mangoes

Open Ended Math Word Problems

open ended math word problems Example 2:

Two teachers bought together 62 gifts one teacher bought 22 gifts.How many gifts did the other teacher buy?

Step 1:

It is important that when the word problem is converted to mathematical problem it is essential that its meaning should not be changed.

Step 2:

The given problem exists between the two teachers.The two teachers bought together 62.

Step 2:

Let the other teacher  who bought unknown gifts be x.

In the open ended math word problems  the problem analyzed is between the two teachers.

Step 3:

Hence the equation formed is

`62+X=22`

Step 4:

To find the other teacher who bought the unknown gifts is solved

`X=62-22`

`X=40`

Step 5:

The other teacher who bought gifts will be 40.

Step 6:

It satisfies the given equation and hence one teacher got 22 gifts and the other teacher got 40 gifts total of 62 gifts.
