Answer: $3.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Laura bought 4 1/3 bushels of apples.

Firs convert this to an improper fraction for easier calculation:

= 13/3 bushels of apples.

If cost $16 altogether, individually they must cost:

= Cost / Quantity purchased

= 16 ÷ 13/3

= 16 * 3/13

= $3.69

<em>Note: You can divide by a fraction by multiplying the inverse of that fraction. </em>

Two ships leave from the same port. One travels west 84 miles and the other travels 62 miles north. Determine the distance betwe
Lerok [7]
The distance the ships traveled are like the legs of a triangle and the question wants to know the hypotenuse. To find the hypotenuse, use the pythagorean theorem. this is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, with a and b being the legs and c being the <span>hypotenuse.
</span>Plug in known values:
84^2 + 62^2 = c^2
Solve:
84^2 = 7056
62^2 = 3844
7056 + 3844 = c^2
7056 + 3844 = 10900
10900 = c^2
Now you just need to isolate c by finding the square root of both sides.
√10900 = 104.403
√c^2 = c

So c = 104.403, or just 104.40 when rounded to the nearest tenth.
And if c is 104.40, then that means the hypotenuse is 104.40.
And all of that basically means that the distance between the ships is 104.40 miles.

Four friends ordered a pizza cut into eight slices. The whole pizza was eaten, with each friend eating a different number of sli
raketka [301]

Answer:

{0,1,3,4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, total no of slices=8.

Total no of friends=4.

also each friend didnt ate more than the other three.

let a,b,c,d be no of slices ate by the friends 1,2,3,4 respectively.

given sum of a+b+c+d=8.

now applying the second condition

a\leq b+c+d \\b\leq c+d+a\\c\leq a+b+d\\d\leq a+b+c

so each of a,b,c,d must be less than or equal to 4.

which means 5 values are possible{0,1,2,3,4}.from this set you have to select 4 values such that their sum is 8.hence, those values are {0,1,3,4}.

Salim says he cannot simplify the expression a^m • a^n. Complete the statement about Salim's claim.
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Salim can simplify that and the answer will be a^m^+^n

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because of the law of multiplying powers, which states that you can add the exponents if the base is the same. So, you just add m and n and put that as the exponent and you will have the answer.
