Answer:

The correct answer is option B. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given an expression : 3 × (50 – 62) ÷ 2

To find the answer we have to use BODMAS principle

BODMAS means that the order of operations

B- Bracket, O - of , D - Division, M - Multiplication, A - Addition and

S - Subtraction

To find the correct option

Step 1: Do the bracket first

3 × (50 – 62) ÷ 2 = 3 × (-12) ÷ 2

Step 2: Division

3 × (-12) ÷ 2 = 3 x (-6)

Step 3 : Multiplication

3 x (-6) = -18

The correct option is option B. 18

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data:

Computer Store Table

Step 02:

Mean price:

$\operatorname{mean}\text{ price = }\frac{14}{38}\cdot2050\text{ + }\frac{19}{38}\cdot1050+\frac{5}{38}\cdot1000$

mean price = 755.2632 + 525 + 131.5789

mean price = 1411.8421

The answer is:

$1411.8421

A certain pipe can be used to fill a pool with water in 2 hours. A second pipe can be used to fill the pool in 4 hours. How long

Kryger [21]

Answer:

1 1/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Pipe 1 alone:

fills the pool in 2 hours

in 1 hour, it fills 1/2 of the pool

Pipe 2 alone:

fills the pool in 4 hours

in 1 hour, it fills 1/4 of the pool

Pipe 1 and Pipe 2 working together:

fill the pool in x hours

in 1 hour, they fill 1/x of the pool

Working together, in 1 hour the two pipes fill 1/2 + 1/4 of the pool.

Working together, in 1 hour the two pipes fill 1/x of the pool.

Therefore,

1/2 + 1/4 = 1/x

2/4 + 1/4 = 1/x

3/4 = 1/x

x = 4/3

x = 1 1/3

Answer: 1 1/3 hours

700.000 = 7 . 10 . 10 . 10 . 10 . 10

We know that equal bases sum the exponents, so,

7 . 10^(1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1)

7 . 10^5 = 700.000

But we can also say:

(7 . 10) . 10^4

(70 . 10) . 10³

(700 . 10) . 10²

(7000 . 10) . 10

As we can see, the alternative C shows (7 . 10) . 10^4 which can be a correct ans, so, alternative C.
