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

marishachu [46]

Answer: $x+x^2+x^3+x^4$

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given,

Number of wives = $x$

Number of sacks = $x (\text{Number of wives} )= x\times x = x^2$

Number of cats = $x(\text{Number of sack})$ $= x \times x^2=x^3$

Number of kits = $x(\text{Number of cats} )=x\times x^3=x^4$

Now , the total number of kits, cats, sacks, and wives going to St. Ives = $x+x^2+x^3+x^4$

Hence, the required ex[pression: $x+x^2+x^3+x^4$

Suppose that r varies directly with s and inversely with t, and r = 2 when s = 3 and t = 12. What is the value of r when s = 5 a

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The statement suppose that r varies directly with s and inversely with t is best represented as:

r α s/t

To make it into equality, we insert a proportionality constant, k:

r = ks/t

Using the initial conditions, we solve for k.

r = ks/t
r = 2 when s = 3 and t = 12

2 = k(3)/12
k = 8

Thus, when s = 5 and t = 4,

r = 8(5)/4
r = 10 -----> OPTION C
