(5.91×10^−3)⋅(8.7×10^10)
= (5.91 x 8.7) x 10^(- 3 + 10)
= 51.417 x 10^7
= 5.1417 x 10^8
Answer is
B. 5.1417 × 10^8
the problem is a pattern that multiplies by two and subtracts one each time.
3x2=6 6-1=5 5x2=10 10-2=9 9x2=18 18-1=17 17x2=34 34-1=33
Answer:
Cost of five blouses = $145
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = cost of blouse
y = cost of skirt
15x + 2y = 505 (1)
5x + 2y = 215 (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate y
15x - 5x = 505 - 215
10x = 290
x = 290/10
x = 29
Substitute x = 29 into (2)
5x + 2y = 215 (2)
5(29) + 2y = 215
145 + 2y = 215
2y = 215 - 145
2y = 70
y = 70/2
y = 35
x = cost of blouse = $29
y = cost of skirt = $35
How much do 5 such blouses cost?
cost of a blouse = $29
Cost of five blouses = $29 × 5
= $145
Cost of five blouses = $145
