1.1.7
A verbal statement relating the number of cars to the number of wheels is:
The number of wheels is four times the number of cars.

1.1.8
A number sentence relating the number of cars to the number of wheels is:
Let cc be the number of cars and ww be the number of wheels.

w=4cw = 4c

The number sentence is w=4c\boxed{w = 4c}.

1.2.1
To check if Thabo's formula y=5x+10y = 5x + 10 is correct, substitute the xx values from the table into the formula and compare the calculated yy values with the yy values in the table.

  1. Test for x=1x=1.

    Substitute x=1x=1 into the formula:

    y=5(1)+10y = 5(1) + 10 y=5+10y = 5 + 10 y=15y = 15

    This matches the table value for x=1x=1.

  2. Test for x=2x=2.

    Substitute x=2x=2 into the formula:

    y=5(2)+10y = 5(2) + 10 y=10+10y = 10 + 10 y=20y = 20

    This does not match the table value for x=2x=2, which is y=10y=10.

    Since the formula does not produce the correct yy value for x=2x=2, Thabo's statement is incorrect.

    Thabo is incorrect\boxed{\text{incorrect}}.
