Answer:

6\ lb = 2.724\ kg

11\ kg = 24.2\ lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1\ kg = 2.2\ lb

1\ lb = 0.454\ kg

Required

- Convert 6 lb to kg

- Convert 11kg to lb

To solve for (a), we make use of the second conversion unit:

1\ lb = 0.454\ kg

Multiply both sides by 6

6 * 1\ lb = 0.454\ kg * 6

6\ lb = 2.724\ kg

<em>Hence, a 6lb backpack weighs 2.724kg</em>

Solving (b): 11 kg to lb

Here, we make use of the first conversion unit

1\ kg = 2.2\ lb

Multiply both sides by 11

11 * 1\ kg = 2.2\ lb * 11

11\ kg = 24.2\ lb

<em>Hence, the cat weighs 24.2lb</em>

3. What is the value of the expression 5x -2 when = 3/4
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Pay attention to the procedure:

(5(10)^2)^3/(10(5))^4. What we need is plug in the corresponding x and y values Then you have to do x squared before you multiply it by 5 like this: (5(100))^3/(10(5))^4 Now solve for what is in the top parenthesis. (500)^3/(10(5))^4 500^3=125000000 Now work on the denominator. Do what is inside the parenthesis first 10*5=50 Now (50)^4=6250000 Now divide the numerator and the denominator. 125000000/6250000 Which equals 20, Please check if I'm wrong but I think this is what you need

The theorem is used for triangles.

4^2  + 5^2 = c^2

16 + 25 = c^2

41 = c^2

sqr(41) = sqr(c)^2
