Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the no. of helmet be x
cost of 1 helmet = $12.00
cost of x helmet = $12.00*x = $12x
Let the no. of tire pumps be y
cost of 1 tire pumps = $8.00
cost of x tire pumps = $8.00*y = $8y
Given that total no. of helmet and pump is 18
thus
x + y = 18
y = 18-x
also given
total money spent is $188
thus
12x+8y = 188
using y = 18 - x
we have
12x + 8(18-x) = 188
=> 12x+ 144 - 8x = 188
=> 4x = 188-144 = 44
=> x = 44/4 = 11
Thus, no of helmet bought by Margo is 11.
the answer to this would be C I hope this helps :)
When you have a negative exponent, you move the base with the negative exponent to the other side of the fraction to make the exponent positive.
For example:
or 
or 

When a base with an exponent is divided by a base with an exponent, you subtract the exponents together. (But you can only combine the exponents when the bases are the same)
For example:
(can't combine because they have different bases of y and x)


When you multiply an exponent directly to a base with an exponent, you multiply the exponents together.
For example:


First multiply the exponents together in the denominator
Now subtract the exponents together
(two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive)
