The clothes weigh 14.77 kilograms.

Given:
Weight of suitcase = 50 pounds
Towels = 20% of weight
Shoes = 15% of weight
Clothes = 65% of weight

convert pounds to kilograms using proportion:

<u>pounds</u>        <u>2.2</u> = <u>50</u>
kilograms       1           x

2.2x = 50 ⇒ x = 50/2.2 ⇒ x = 22.73 kgs

Clothes : 22.73 kgs * 65% = 14.77 kgs
Towels  : 22.73 kgs * 20% =   4.55 kgs
Shoes   : 22.73 kgs * 15% =   3.41 kgs

Mario says that the expression 4+3n² has four terms: 4, 3, n, and 2. Is he correct? explain.
stich3 [128]

Mario says that the expression 4+3n^2 has four terms: 4, 3, n, and 2. Mario is incorrect

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that the expression is:

4+3n^2

Given that, Mario says that the above expression has four terms

But Mraio is incorrect

Because the given expression has two terms only

4 is one of the term

3n^2 is another term

So there are totally 2 terms only

A term can be a signed number, a variable, or a constant multiplied by a variable or variables

Here 3 is a constant multiplied by n^2

So, 3n^2 is one term

Each term in an algebraic expression is separated by a + sign or - sign

Thus there are two terms in mario expression
