Brand X costs: $4.50
Brand Y costs: $3.50

Total spent by Christopher: $49.50

Equation: 4.50x + 3.50y = 49.50

I'm unsure how to solve this equation, but it appears to be the correct one

give an example on an addition problem in which you would and would not group the addends differently to add
AnnZ [12381]
Addends refer to the numbers being summed in an equation. 

Their arrangement only matters if parentheses are utilized to modify the usual Order of Operations. 

For example:
2 - (8 + 3)  in this case, 8 and 3 must be grouped first before tackling the subtraction.

Any addition scenario without parentheses can similarly function where the grouping is irrelevant.

Which expression is equivalent to (10x)^-3?
Inessa [12570]
(10x)^(-3)
= 1/[(10x)^3]
= 1/[10^3 * x^3]
= 1/(1000x^3)

The final result is 1/(1000x^3), and none of the given choices seem correct. (Option C would be correct if it used round brackets.)

Hope this helps~

Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

Please refer to the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sarah, Jose, and you all reside on the same street:

The distance between you and Jose is 5 blocks

The distance between Jose and Sarah is 2 blocks

Calculating the distance (b) between you and Sarah:

Since it is not specified if Sarah is closer to you or to Jose;

Thus;

Distance b from you to Sarah will be:

(The distance to Jose ± the distance to Sarah)

b = (5 ± 2)

b = (5 + 2) or (5 - 2)

b = 7 blocks or 3 blocks
