Answer:
wives
sacks
cats
kits
Suppose the man in the St. Ives poem has x wives, each wife has x sacks, each sack has x cats, and each cat has x kits. Write an expression using exponents that represents the total number of kits, cats, sacks, and wives going to St .Ives.
Step-by-step explanation:
wives
If each of the "x" wives has "x" sacks, so the number of sacks is:
sacks
If each of the "x" wives has "x" sacks, and each sack has "x" cats, so the number of cats is:
cats
If each of the "x" wives has "x" sacks, and each sack has "x" cats, and each cat has "x" kits, so the number of kits is:
kits
In the problem, two legs measurement were given such as:
Leg 1 = 12 inches
Leg 2 = 15 inches
We need to solve for the third leg. Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean theorem in solving the missing leg:
c²=b²+a²
When we assume that the third leg is the "c", we can for the value such as:
c² = 12²+15²
c=19.21
When we assume that the third is either "a" or "b":
15² =a² + 12²
a=9
Then, the possible measurement of the third leg is 9 or 19.21.
The difference between the two possible answer is shown below:
Difference = 19.21 -9 = 10.21
Difference =10.21
Answer:
the answer 14.0125. rounded = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
convert the percentage to a decimal
4.75% --> move two decimal places --> 0.0475
multiply 295*0.0475
= 14.0125
Answer: x = -6
Step-by-step explanation: The problem gave us the y value, so we can just substitute it into the equation and solve it.
y = x - 6
y = 2x
2x = x - 6 (substitute the y value into the equation)
1x = -6 (subtract x on each side)
x = -6 (1x is basically saying x so you do not need to divide)
10xt=190
T represents the amount of trips and 10 represents the amount of money she spends each trip. Since she has $190 already it will be on the other side of the equation after the equal sign
