6 stools and 4chairs cost$58 but 5 stools and 2 chairs cost$ 35 find the cost of each stool and each chair

1 answer:

6 0

Stool = s, chair = c
6s+4c=58 ---(1)
5s+2c=35 ---(2)

(2)*2; 10s+4c=70 ---(3)
(3)-(1); 4s=12
so s=3
from (2)
5s+2c= 35
5(3)+2c=35
2c = 35-15
2c = 20
so c=10

then the cost of each stool is $3 and the cost of each chair is $10

Estimates of the number of cells in the human body vary over an order of magnitude. Indeed, the precise number varies from one

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

a) 2.00 × 10¹⁰; b) 2.00 × 10¹³

Step-by-step explanation:

a) No. of cells in 1 cm³

$\text{No. of cells} =\text{1 cm}^{3} \times\left( \dfrac{\text{1 m}}{\text{100 cm}}\right )^{3} \times \left (\dfrac{1 \, \mu \text{m} }{10^{-6}\,\text{ m}}\right )^{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1 cell}}{\text{50 $\,\mu$m}^{3}} = \mathbf{2.00 \times 10^{10}} \textbf{ cells}$

b) No. of cells in 1 L

$\text{No. of cells} = \text{1 L} \times \dfrac{\text{1000 cm}^{3}}{\text{1 L}} \times \dfrac{2 \times 10^{10} \text{ cells}}{\text{1 cm}^{3}} = \mathbf{2.00 \times 10^{13}} \textbf{ cells}$
