Select the simplification that accurately explains the following statement.<br> (from clever)

gavmur [86]

Answer:

OPTION C

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that $(\textbf{x}^{\textbf{a}} )^{\textbf{b}} \hspace{5mm} \textbf{=} \hspace{5mm} \textbf{x}^{\textbf{a . b}}$

Also, $\textbf{x}^{\textbf{a}}. \textbf{x}^{\textbf{a}} \textbf{=} \textbf{x}^{\textbf{a + a}} \textbf{=} \textbf{x}^{\textbf{2a}}$

Using the above two results, we can say that:

$\sqrt{9} = 9^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\bigg ( 9^{\frac{1}{2}} \bigg )^2 = 9^{\frac{1}{2}}. 9^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$= 9^{\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}}$ (Using (ii) result)

$= 9^{1} = \textbf{9}$

Hence, OPTION C is the correct answer.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

s = 3h

0.1s + 0.2h = 5

h = 10

s = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Hat :

0.2kg of yarn

Let Number of hats = h

Kg of yarn used for hat = 0.2 * h = 0.2h

Scarf:

0.1 kg of yarn

Number of scarves (s) = s

Kg of yarn used for scarf = 0.1 * s = 0.1s

Total kg of yarn used = 5 kg

Number of Scarf = 3 times number of hats :

s = 3h - - (1)

0.1s + 0.2h = 5 - - (2)

From 1:

0.1(3h) + 0.2h = 5

0.3h + 0.2h = 5

0.5h = 5

h = 10

s = 3h

s = 3(10) = 30
