Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in
. This will become
, and
. Now, the expression is:
.
We can now simplify the bottom to read:
because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents. The expression now looks like:

The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:

Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom. When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents. However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent. The final answer is:

Hope this makes sense!!
Answer:
D = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the median, we must first list the amount of books each person read, and then put them in order.
2, 2, 7, 12, 25
These are already in order from smallest to greatest, which is awesome. We can then cross out one number from each side until we end up with either one or two numbers. We then find the average of those 1 or 2 numbers to find our median.
2, 3, 7, 12, 25
cross 2 and 25 out
3, 7, 12
cross 3 and 12 out
7
Our median is thus 7
Let's use q to represent the number of quarts needed.
you would have the following:
2q= 107-19
2q=88
q=44
44 is the number of quarts in a in the barn.
Now you have to divide that number by 4 to get gallons because there is 4 quarts in a gallon.
There are 11 gallons of paint.
41/11
