Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Consider the parenthesis as shown in the above image to write a statement

using variables, constants and arithmetic operations:

Here, the given statement is $m$ is multiplied by $3$ and added to $11$.

The word 'multiplied by' suggests multiplication that is $m$ is multiplied by $3$ means $m\times 3=3m$ and the word 'added to' suggests addition. So, the verbal expression $m$ is multiplied by $3$ and added to $11$ can be represented by the algebraic expression $3m+11$.

Hence, the statement $m$ is multiplied by $3$ and added to $11$ can be rewritten as $3m+11$.
