Answer:
a = -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
25(√5)^a * (√5) ^3 = 5√5
25*5^a/2 * 5^3/2 = 5*5^1/2
25*5^a/2 = 5*5^1/2 / 5^3/2
25*5^a/2 = 5^1 *5^1/2 / 5^3/2
25*5^a/2 = 5^3/2 / 5^3/2 = 1
5^a/2 = 1/25 = 5^-2
The bases are equal, so
a/2 = -2
a = -4.
Team A scored a total of 80,597 points I believe
161,161 + 33 = 161,194
161,194 ÷2 = 80,597
80,597- 33 = 80,564
80,564 + 80,597 = 161,161
To find the area of a rectangle, multiple the width by the length.
(And simply the fractions for a simpler equation)
For piece A:
The length 1 and 3/5 can be turned into an improper fraction by multiplying 1 by the denominator (5) and adding it to the numerator (3). 1 and 3/5 = 8/5
(3/4) • (8/5) = area
Multiple the numerators with each other and the denominators with each other (3 times 8 = 24) (4 times 5 = 20)
The area of piece A is 24/20
If you do the same for piece B:
(2/5) • (21/8) = area
The answer is 42/40
