Answer:

Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight that Jon gained in December = 2.2 kilograms

Weight that Jon lost in January = 1.5 kilograms

Weight that Jon lost in February = 3.7 kilograms

Overall Change in his weight = Total Weight he gained - Total weight he Lost

Total weight he gained is 2.2 kilograms as he only gained weight in December. Total weight he lost will be sum of weights he lost in January and February.

So, total weight Jon lost = 1.5 + 3.7 = 5.2 kilograms

Thus,

Total change in Jon's Weight = 2.2 - 5.2 = -3.0 kilograms

This shows that Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.

Conclusion:

The statement that best describe the total change in his weight is: Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months

Simplity (4^-2)^5<br> A.1/4^10<br> B. 4^3<br> C.1/4^3<br> D. 4^10
Goshia [24]

Answer:

(4^{-2})^5=\dfrac{1}{4^{10}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is : (4^{-2})^5

We need to simplify the above expression.

We know that, x^{-a}=\dfrac{1}{x^a}

or

(4^{-2})^5=(\dfrac{1}{4^2})^5\\\\=\dfrac{1^5}{(4^2)^5}\\\\\because (x^b)^c=x^{b\times c}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4^{10}}

So, the simplified form of the given expression is \dfrac{1}{4^{10}}. Hence, the correct option is (A).

A movie theater charges $9.50 for adults and $4.50 for children. For a recent showing of a movie, the theater sold 33 tickets an
choli [55]

Answer:

The  number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of  adult tickets sold was 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the number of children's tickets sold

y ---> the number of  adult tickets sold

we know that

the theater sold 33 tickets

so

x+y=33 -----> equation A

the theater made a total of $158.50

so

4.50x+9.50y=158.50 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (31,2)

see the attached figure

therefore

The  number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of  adult tickets sold was 2
