which represents the following expression statement below?

Question

the quotient of the square of a number and 12 plus 8

Answer 1

The expression you provided can be broken down as follows:

1. "the square of a number" can be represented as \( x^2 \) (where \( x \) is the number).
2. "the quotient of the square of a number and 12" can be represented as \( \frac{x^2}{12} \).
3. "plus 8" means we add 8 to the previous expression.

Putting it all together, the complete expression statement can be represented as:

\[ \frac{x^2}{12} + 8 \]
