Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem is : −4.5 + 4.2 + 5.6 − 7.3

The order for solving an arithmetic problem is as follows :

  • Parentheses,
  • Exponentiation,
  • Multiplication,
  • Addition,
  • Subtraction,

We can rewrite the given problem as : 4.2 + 5.6 - 7.3 - 4.5

Taking 4.2 and 5.6 together in bracket : (4.2 + 5.6) - 7.3 - 4.5

= 9.8 - 7.3 - 4.5

= 2.5 - 4.5

= -2

Hence, the answer for given problem is -2, but Andrew get -21.6 which is wrong.

Stella bought 14 purses for $50. The next day she bought 2 more for a total of $38. What was the mean cost per purse?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

$48.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Number of purses= 14+2= 16

Cost of 14 purses= $50

Cost of 2 purses= $38

Let us use the weighted cost method

Mean cost = (14*50+ 2*38)/16

Mean cost = (700+ 76)/16

Mean cost = 776/16

Mean cost =$48.5

LuckyWell [14K]

What I would do is subtract 12 from -5. Then you would have -17. Then you would add 4 and it would be -13. So your answer is:

<h2><em>-13</em></h2>

Hi there!

First, let's create an equation for the table: m = 2n + 40. Using this equation, we can find the values of x, y, and z.

WORK:
x = 2(4) + 40
x = 8 + 40
x = 48
y = 2(5) + 40
y = 10 + 40
y = 50
z = 2(6) + 40
z = 12 + 40
z = 52

Next, using the equation, we know that the initial investment would be 40, since that is the y-intercept of the equation. To express M in terms of N, that would be our equation m = 2n + 40. To find 10 years, we'll plug in 10 for n.

WORK:
m = 2(10) + 40
m = 20 + 40
m = 60 after 10 years

To figure out when his investment would double, we'll need to use 80 (double his initial investment of 40) in place of m.

WORK:
80 = 2n + 40
40 = 2n
n = 20 years


Hope this helps!! :)
