Patterns can be used to determine products of a number of a power of 10 by following it to obtain easily the answer. When you multiply a number by the power of 10 you just have to write the number then add the number of corresponding number of 0s to the end which will be the same number as the power used.

Let x = weight of adult meerkat, y=weight of baby meerkat, Find y.
x=0.776 kg
y+7.47hectogram=x=0.776
Since 1 hectogram = 0.1 kg,
Therefore the weight of baby meerkat is, y= 0.029 kg
Y=70x
If she types at a consistent speed for 49 minutes she will have typed 3,430 words.
The number of hours Jeremiah ironed = 10 hours
The number of hours Tristan ironed = 7 hours
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- Jeremiah can iron = 35 shirts per hour
- Tristan can iron = 20 shirts per hour
- Total work done by both = 490 shirts
Let 'x' be the number of hours Jeremiah ironed.
Let 'y' be the number of hours Tristan ironed.
x+y = 17 ------(1)
35x + 20y = 490 -------(2)
Multiply (1) by 20 and subtract (2) from (1),
20x + 20y = 340
-(<u>35x + 20y = 490</u>)
<u>-15x = -150 </u>
x = 150/15
x = 10
Substitute x=10 in (1)
10+y = 17
y = 7
All you got to do first is:
Change the 9% to decimal, which is .9
and then multiply all numbers
$2860 x .9 x3 is $7,722
Hope this helps! (Hope im right)
