The problem is asking you to simplify the exponents. When you multiply two or more powers with the same base, the exponents can be added and subtracted. In this case, the base is 7.

$7^6*7*7^{-4}$

7 can also be written as $7^1$ .

$7^6*7^1*7^{-4} = 7 ^{(6+1-4)} = 7^3$

The answer would be 7³ if you kept the exponent, or 343 if you simplified further.

Triangle PQR lies in the xy-plane, and the coordinates of vertex Q are (2, –3). Triangle PQR is rotated 180° clockwise about the

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

(2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that triangle PQR lies in the xy-plane, and coordinates of Q are (2,-3).

Triangle PQR is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about the origin and then reflected across the y-axis to produce triangle P'Q'R',

We have to find the coordinates of Q'.

The coordinates of Q(2,-3).

180 degree clockwise rotation about the origin then transformation rule

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,-y)$

The coordinates (2,-3) change into (-2,3) after 180 degree clockwise rotation about origin.

Reflect across y- axis the transformation rule

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,y)$

Therefore, when reflect across y- axis then the coordinates (-2,3) change into (2,3).

Hence, the coordinates of Q(2,3).

An investment firm wants to create a billboard that displays an enlarged $1,000,000 bill. The actual size of the bill is 2.61 in

Mandarinka [93]

We know how wide the billboard will be. Therefore, to know how much the original image should be enlarged, you must divide the final width of the billboard between the current width of the invoice.

We know both data, then we perform the operation:

48 feet /6.14 inches = 7.81 feet / inches .

Therefore the correct answer is option D. 1″ = 7.81′

For the bill to cover the billboard, the bill must be expanded by a factor of 7.81 feet long per inch long that has the original image.
