The price of the shoe pair in us dollars will be $50. The correct option is C.

<h3>What is unit conversion?</h3>

Multiplication or division by a numerical factor, selection of the correct number of significant figures, and unit conversion are all steps in a multi-step procedure.

It is given that shoes sell for 400 Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong and the exchange rate is $0.125 per Hong Kong dollar. The cost of the same shoes in the united states will be calculated as below:-

Cost of shoes in the US = Cost in Hongkong x Exchange rate

Cost of shoes in the US = 400 x 0.125

Cost of shoes in the US = $50

Therefore, the price of the shoe pair in us dollars will be $50. The correct option is C.

Using the distance formula, find the distance between two points. (6, 0) (-5, 4)
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

11.7046999

Step-by-step explanation:

using the distance formula (d=√(x₂ -x₁)² + (y₂-y₁)²), we can plug in the two points to find the distance between them:

d=√(6-(-5)² + (0-4)²

d=√(11)²+ (-4)²

d=√121+16

d=√137

d approximately equal to (≈) 11.7046999 or 11.7 or 11

Logs are stacked in a pile. The top row has 15 logs and the bottom row has 24 logs. How many logs are there in the stack?
ziro4ka [17]
There are two ways you can do this. You can use the longer way:
15+16+17+18+19+20+21+22+23+24 = 195 (starting from the top row, which has 15 logs, up until the bottom row, which has 24 logs, on condition that each second row has one log more than the previous one)

You can also use the formula (where n is the number of rows)
x= (n(first term+last term))/2
x= (10(15+24))/2
x= (10*39)/2
x=390/2
x=195

Either way, there are 195 logs in the stack.
