Answer:

The area of the wheel cheese is 63.62 inches²

The cost per square inch is $0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- One wheel of cheese has a diameter of 9 inches

∵ The wheel is shaped a circle

∵ The diameter of the wheel is 9 inches

- The radius of the circle is half its diameter

∵ The radius of the wheel = 1/2 its diameter

∴ The radius of the wheel = 1/2 (9) = 4.5 inches

- The area of a circle = πr²

∴ The area of the wheel cheese = π(4.5)² = 63.61725124 inches²

* The area of the wheel cheese is 63.62 inches²

- The 9-inch wheel of cheese costs $18.60

∵ The area of the wheel cheese is 63.62 inches²

∵ It cost is $18.60

- To find the cost per square inch divide the cost of the wheel

by its area

∴ The cost per square inch = 18.60 ÷ 63.62 = 0.29

∴ The cost per square inch is $0.29

Answer with explanation:

Using following law of indices

$1.x^a \times x^b=x^{a+b}\\\\2. (x^m)^n=x^{mn}\\\\ 3. x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}\\\\4. \frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}$

$1.5^{-1}\times 3^{-2}=\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{1}{3^2}\\\\=\frac{1}{5\times9}\\\\=\frac{1}{45}\\\\2. \frac{mn^{-4}}{p^0*q^{-2}}=\frac{mq^2}{n^4}\\\\ 3.0.0042=4.2\times 10^3\\\\4.6.12 \times 10^3=6.12 \times 1000=6120\\\\ 5.0.5 \times(8\times10^5})=\frac{1}{2}\times8 \times 10^5=4\times 10^5\\\\6. (9 \times 10^3)^2=9^2 \times (10^3)^2=81 \times 10^6\\\\7.( \frac{1}{2}a^{-4}\times b^2 )_{a=-2,b=4}{\text{or}}( \frac{1}{2}a^{4}\times b^{-2} )_{a=-2,b=4}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{-4}\times(4)^2{\text{or}}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{4}\times(4)^{-2}=\frac{16}{2\times16}=\frac{1}{2}$

$9. (4\times x\times y^2)^3\times (xy)^5=4^3\times x^3\times (y^2)^3\times x^5 \times y^5\\\\=64\times x^{3+5}\times y^{5+6}\\\\=64x^8y^{11}\\\\10.(2\times t^3)^3(0.4\times r)^2=2^3 \times (t^3)^3\times (0.4)^2 \times r^2=8\times t^9 \times 0.16 \times r^2=1.28r^2t^9$

8. A number raised to a negative exponent is negative.

Explaining with the help of few examples

$1.2^{-3}=\frac{1}{2^3}=\frac{1}{8}\\\\ 2.(-3)^{-3}=\frac{1}{(-3)^{3}}=\frac{-1}{27}$

Which is correct regarding the statement: “If x is an odd integer, then the median of x , x + 2, x + 6, and x + 10 is an odd num

mario62 [17]

X is an odd number

x+2 is also odd (consider the example x = 3 so x+2 = 3+2 = 5). Adding 2 to any odd number is always odd

Similarly, so is x+6 (since we have x+2+2+2).

And so is x+10 (x+2+2+2+2+2).

So every value in this list is an odd number. The middle most values are x+2 and x+6 which are both odd.

Adding any two odd numbers together yields an even number. For example 3+5 = 8. Divide this even number in half and we may or may not get an odd number (eg: 8/2 = 4 and 6/2 = 3)

So this statement is sometimes true
