General Mathematics - Problem Solving

Name: Gerona, John Kenneth R.


Grade: 11
Section: Alcaraz

● AI-assisted group: You may use an AI tool (e.g., ChatGPT) to assist you in solving the
following mathematical problems. Ensure all steps are shown clearly and demonstrate
your understanding of the concepts involved.
● Non-AI group: Complete the tasks without the use of any AI tools. Show all steps
clearly, demonstrating your understanding of the concepts involved.

Instructions:
Solve each problem according to the instructions provided for your group. Show all steps and
write solutions clearly.

Problems

1. System of Equations:
Solve for x and y:

3x+2y=12

x-y=2

Solution: Elimination method:

3x+2y=12

-2x-2y = -4

x=8

Finding y:

(8)-y=2

y = -8+2

y=-6

Solution set: (8,-6)


2. Linear Equation:
Find the value of xxx in the equation:

5x−3=2x+95x - 3 = 2x + 95x−3=2x+9

Solution:

3. Simple Interest Calculation


Calculate the simple interest on a principal of $1,200 over 3 years at an annual interest
rate of 5%.

Solution: I = $1,200 (0.08) (5)

I = $480

4. Quadratic Equation
Solve for x in the equation:

x2−5x+6=0

Solution:

I do not know

5. Percentage Problem
If a student scored 45 out of 60 on an exam, what is their percentage score?

Solution:45/60 = 0.75

0.75 x 100 = 75%

6. Discount Calculation
A store offers a 20% discount on an item that originally costs $150. What is the
discounted price?
Solution: DP = $150 (1 - 0.20)

DP = 120$

7. Proportion Problem
Solve for xxx in the proportion:
45 = 15 × 4/5 = x/15

Solution:

I do not know

8. Average Calculation
Find the average of the following numbers: 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24.

Solution: 12 + 15 + 18 + 21 + 24 = 90/5 = 18

(Divide by 5 since there are 5 terms in the sequence)

9. Distance-Speed-Time Problem
A car travels at 60 km/h. How long will it take to cover a distance of 150 km?

Solution: It’s 2 hours and 30 minutes by just doing 60 (per hr) +60 (per hr) = 120 (2 hours) + 30
(30 minutes) = 150 (2 hours 30 minutes)

10. Area Calculation


Calculate the area of a rectangle with a length of 8 cm and a width of 5 cm.
Solution: Multiply the width and length

8cm x 5cm = 40cm squared (area)

General Mathematics - Problem Solving Evaluation Rubric (Total: 2 Points per Problem)

For each problem, students can earn up to 2 points as follows:

1. Correct Solution (1 Point)

● The answer is mathematically correct.


● All steps are logically organized and clearly demonstrate understanding.
● Mathematical notation is used correctly.

Scoring Guide:

● 1 Point: Solution is accurate, steps are shown clearly, and mathematical notation is
used correctly.
● 0 Points: Solution is incorrect or lacks clarity in the reasoning or steps.

2. Incorrect Solution (1 Point)

● Awarded only if the incorrect answer still shows a sound approach or partial
understanding.
● The student demonstrates partial conceptual knowledge or follows the correct initial
steps.
● The mistake might be due to minor errors, such as calculation mistakes, rather than
conceptual misunderstanding.

Scoring Guide:

● 1 Point: The solution has a partially correct approach, demonstrates some


understanding, or contains minor errors.
● 0 Points: The solution shows little understanding of the problem's requirements, or
steps are missing or disorganized.
