6 sweets cost 42p altogether how much do 8 sweets cost

2 answers:

8 0

The best thing to do is to find the cost of one sweet, and to do this, divide 42 by 7.
42/7= 6
Therefore, one sweet costs 6p.
To find the cost of 8 sweets, you've got to multiply 6 by 8, and this gives you 54p.
Therefore, 8 sweets cost 54p
This is basically just finding unit rate and multiplying.

Find negative x when x is negative seven

Free_Kalibri [48]

Thus, we multiply the numbers together as we normally would, and then put a negative sign in front of our answer. So, 4 x -3 = -12. Please note that this also works when the negativenumber comes first and the positive number is second. For example, you may see it written -3 x 4, but don't get confused

Please help with the following problem asap!!

Answer:

$8^7$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{8^{15}}{8^7 \cdot 8} =$

Remember that $8 = 8^1$ .

$= \dfrac{8^{15}}{8^7 \cdot 8^1}$

When you multiply powers with the same base, add the exponents. Do this in the denominator.

$= \dfrac{8^{15}}{8^{7+1}}$

$= \dfrac{8^{15}}{8^{8}}$

When you divide powers with the same base, subtract the exponents.

$= 8^{15-8}$

$= 8^7$

A person leaves her camp at 7:00 a.m. to hike back to her car. The distance from the car in kilometers y after x hours of hiking

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The x axis in the function represents, the number of hours after 7:00 A.M. , the person reaches her car. The person reaches the car at 1:00 P.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x axis denotes the no. of hours and and the y axis denotes the distance from the car.

X Intercept is a point where the line intersects the X axis, we can easily notice the fact that at that point, y=0 ie. The person has reached his/her respective car.

The line intersects x at 6.

Therefore, a total of 6 hours are taken from the beginning of the hike.

Thus, the person reaches the car at 1:00 P.M.
