It is given in the question that

Anna buys 12 pens and 20 pencils for a total cost of $16. One pen costs $0.40 more than a pencil.

Let the cost of pencil is $ x .

Therefore cost of pen is

$(x+0.40)

According to the question

12(x+0.40)+20x =16

Distributing 12 and combining like terms, we will get

12x+4.8+20x=16\\32x = 11.2\\x = 0.35

Therefore cost of pencil is $0.35 and cost of pen is

0.35+0.40=0.75

What is the simplified value of the exponential expression 16 Superscript one-fourth?
pochemuha

<u>Answer: </u>

The value of the exponential expression 16^{\frac{1}{4}} is 2  

<u>Solution:</u>

16 superscript one-fourth= 16^{\frac{1}{4}}

As per the problem,  

We have to find the value of 16^{\frac{1}{4}}  

16 in terms of 2 can be written as 2\times2\times2\times2

= (2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2)^{\frac{1}{4}}

=\left(2^{4}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}

As per the exponential rule, a^{(m)^{n}}=a^{m \times n}

=2^{4 \times \frac{1}{4}}

Here, 4\times\frac{1}{4}=1

= 2^{1}

= 2

Hence, the value is 2.

Answer:

D, B, C, A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equations by combining like terms, isolating the variable, and dividing the equation by the coefficient of the variable.

Doing this, the first equation should be 2, the second equation should be -2, the third equation should be -1, and the last equation should be -6.

Then, we can order them.
