Answer:

Ling paid $5.99 for each can of cooking fuel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ling spent $23.96 on cooking fuel for an upcoming camping trip.

Total number of cans of cooking fuel bought = 4

So, the cost of each can = $\frac{23.96}{4}=5.99$ dollars

Hence, Ling paid $5.99 for each can of cooking fuel.

How do you use an exponent to represent a number such as 16?

It would be
${4}^{2}$
Because 4 times 4 is 16, the 2 is the exponent.

What is the value of x?<br> 20<br> 35<br> 60<br> 70

Evgen [1.6K]

They are vertical angles, and so set them equal to each other

x + 40 = 3x

Isolate the x. Subtract x from both sides

x (-x) + 40 = 3x (-x)

Simplify

40 = 3x - x

40 = 2x

Isolate the x. Divide 2 from both sides

40/2 = 2x/2

x = 40/2

x = 20

20, or (A) is your answer

hope this helps
