8 3-point shots and 13 2-point shots.
8x3 = 24, 13x2 = 26,
24+26= 50.
13+ 8 = 21
To write this expression as a positive exponent we use this rule of exponents: xa=1x−a. 5−3=15−−3=153. Use this rule for exponents: xa=1x−a. 5−3=15−−3=153=1125.
Answer:
7000 in the account that paid 9% interest rate and 3000 in the account that paid 8% interest rate
Step-by-step explanation:
Let $x be invested in account 1 and $(10000-x) in the second account
Then, 870=x*9/100+(10000-x)*8/100
x=$7,000.
a) 9 toilet rolls cost $ 4.23
1 toilet roll costs $ x
9x = 4.23 * 1
x= 4.23 / 9
x = 0.47
So in first case one toilet roll costs $ 0.47.
b) 4 toilet rolls cost $1.96
1 toilet roll costs $ x
4x = 1.96 * 1
x = 1.96 / 4
x = 0.49
So in second case one toilet roll costs $ 0.49.
0.47 < 0.49
The toilet roll in first case is cheaper than the toilet roll in second case.
Hope this heps!
