C. negative exponents always go at the bottom
To find the length of the wire, use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
18^2 + 40^2 = c ^2
324 + 1600 = c^2
1924 = c^2
44 = c
The wire is approximately 44 feet.
Answer:
The cost of spoon is £1.84 and therefore the cost of one knife is £5.52.
Given :
-
A knife is 3 times the cost of the spoon.
- 9 spoons and 12 knives costs £82.80.
Solution :
-
This question is solve by creating a linear equation and linear equations are nothing but yet another subset of "equations".
- Linear calculations that requires more than one variable can be done with the help of linear equations.
- The standard form of a linear equation in one variable is ax + b = 0.
Now let x be the cost of spoon. Than the cost knife is 3x. It is given that 9 spoons and 12 knives costs £82.80.
<h3>
</h3>
Therefore the cost of 1 knife = 5.52
Step-by-step explanation:
4 is the answer, divide both sides by 3 and get 4
