Answer:

4a^{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{64}{16} = 4

When the bases are the same and you are dividing you subtract the exponents.  It is easier to see why when you write the problem out in expanded form.

\frac{aaaaaabbbbbbb}{abbbbbbb}  If you cross out all of the a's on top with the a's on the bottom, you are left with only 1 a (6-1 = 5)  If you do not see an exponent, it is understood to be 1.  All of the b's on the top and bottom cross out. (7-7 = 0)  Anything to the zero power = 1.

Answer:

4a^{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to start this solving is simplifying the numbers:

start by dividing 64 by 16. This gets you 4.

Then simplify the variables. Let's start with <em>a</em>:

to do this, we will start by moving all the <em>a'</em>s to the same line so we can multiply them

multiplying like variables means that you are actually just adding their exponents

when moving a variable up or down on the fraction, the exponent will flip signs (positive to negative, or negative to positive)

in this case, we have a^{6} in the numerator and a^{1}, so it would be easiest to move   a^{1} above so that it the equation will become \frac{4a^{6}a^{-1}b^{7}   }{b^{7} }

now we can subtract 1 from 6 and get  \frac{4a^{5}b^{7}   }{b^{7} }

Now let's work on simplifying <em>b:</em>

both the numerator and denominator have b^{7} in it

so if we move the <em>b</em> denominator up, the numerator ends up as     {4a^{5}b^{7}b^{-7} }

which makes both <em>b'</em>s cancel out, making your final answer 4a^{5}

Assume that​ women's heights are normally distributed with a mean given by mu equals 62.5 in​,and a standard deviation given by
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

(a) 0.5899

(b) 0.9166

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that represents the height of a woman. Then, X is normally distributed with  

\mu = 62.5 in

\sigma = 2.2 in

the normal probability density function is given by  

f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}2.2}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2)^{2}}}, then

(a) P(X < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}f(x) dx = 0.5899

   (in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2)

(b) We are seeking P(\bar{X} < 63) where n = 37. \bar{X} is normally distributed with mean 62.5 in and standard deviation 2.2/\sqrt{37}. So, the probability density function is given by

g(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{37}}}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2/\sqrt{37})^{2}}}, and

P(\bar{X} < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}g(x)dx = 0.9166

(in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2/sqrt(37))

You can use a table from a book to find the probabilities or a programming language like the R statistical programming language.

Monday: 10 apples and 5 bananas cost £4.20 Friday: 8 apples and 10 bananas cost £5.40 Find the cost of each - with an explanatio
motikmotik

Answer:

An apple costs £0.25

A banana costs £0.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be apples and b be bananas.

10a+5b=4.2

8a+10b=5.4

Solve for a:

10a+5b=4.2

<em>Subtract 5b from both sides</em>

10a=4.2-5b

<em>Subtract 4.2 from both sides</em>

10a-4.2= -5b

<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>

-10a+4.2=5b

8a+10b=5.4

<em>Subtract 10b from both sides</em>

8a=5.4-10b

<em>Subtract 5.4 from both sides</em>

8a-5.4= -10b

<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>

-8a+5.4= 10b

<em>Divide both sides by 2</em>

-4a+2.7=5b

<u>Combine equations:</u>

-4a+2.7= -10a+4.2

<em>Add 10a to both sides</em>

6a+2.7=4.2

<em>Subtract 2.7 from both sides</em>

6a=1.5

<em>Divide both sides by 6</em>

a=0.25

An apple costs £0.25

Solve for b:

10a+5b=4.2

<em>Subtract 10a from both sides</em>

5b= -10a+4.2

<em>Subtract 4.2 from both sides</em>

5b-4.2= -10a

<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>

-5b+4.2=10a

8a+10b=5.4

<em>Subtract 8a from both sides</em>

10b= -8a+5.4

<em>Subtract 5.4 from both sides</em>

10b-5.4= -8a

<em>Divide both sides by 4</em>

2.5b-1.35= -2a

Multiply both sides by 5

12.5b-6.75= -10a

<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>

-12.5b+6.75=10a

<u>Combine equations:</u>

-12.5b+6.75= -5b+4.2

<em>Add 12.5b to both sides</em>

6.75=7.5b+4.2

<em>Subtract 4.2 from both sides</em>

2.55=7.5b

7.5b=2.55

<em>Divide both sides by 7.5</em>

b=0.34

A banana costs £0.34

If you would like to check and see if it is true, (I already checked, it is) you can use the formulas I gave at the start of the explanation.

10a+5b=4.2

8a+10b=5.4

a=0.25

b=0.34
