Answer:

Expression for each situation:

Given, On Monday it snowed a certain amount.  

Let the amount of snow on Monday be n.

On Tuesday it snowed 3 times as much as Monday.  

Then, [tex]\text{{amount of snow on Tuesday}}= \text{{amount of snow on Monday}}\times 3[/tex]

amount of snow on Tuesday = 3 x n = 3n

On Wednesday it snowed twice as much as Monday.  

Then,[tex]\text{{amount of snow on wednesday}}= \text{{amount of snow on Monday}}\times 2[/tex]

amount of snow on Wednesday = 2 x n = 2n

On Thursday it snowed the same amount as Monday,  

Then, amount of snow on Thursday = amount of snow on Monday  

amount of snow on Thursday = n

Hence, we have written expressions for each situation.
