Assessment Polya's Four Step Approach to Problem solving

1. The sum of the squares of 2 given numbers in greater than twice the product of numbers. To
which number pair is this rule NOT correct?
= 9 and 9
x = 1st given number

9 = 2nd given number

2 2
x + 9 > ( X∗9 )

92 +9 2>(9∗9)
162>162

2. A piece of cloth 200m long is cut into One piecer piece is three times as long as the other How
long is each piece?

P=Piece of cloth 3 (50) + 50 = 200

3pt P = 200 150 + 50 = 200
200 = 200
4 P 200
= 50cm and 150 cm
4 4

P= 50

3. If 10 cell phones cast ₱49,950.00, what is the cast of 25 cell phones?

P=cost of cell phones P=4,995

P=10 ¿ 25(x )
10 P 49,950
= ¿ 25(4,995)
10 10
¿ 4,995 ¿ 124,875
4. IF Vincent cold for ₱450,000.00 a car that cost ₱500,000.00, what was his percentage of loss?

¿ 1−( 450,000÷ 500,000 ) ×100

¿ 1−(0.9)× 100
¿ 0.1 ×100=10

10%

5. Six consecutive integers are given. The sum of the First 3 is 27. What is the sum of the last 3?

27 ÷ 3=9(9,9,9)
3 consecutive integers so

x−1 , 9 , x +1
9−1 ,9 ,9+1
8 , 9 , 10 ,then succeding terms is 10 , 11, 12

Therefore 11 + 12 + 13 = 36
