Shortest part = 30 * 3/(3+5) = 30*3/8
=11.25

Hello there buddy,

So what your going to do is 3/8 x 30.

Your correct answer would be 11.25.

I hope this helps you.

6x2y^3/3xy Use Laws of exponents. answer is 2xy^2 but I don't know how to get it. My initial answer was 4y^2

allsm [11]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{6x^{2}y^{3}}{3xy}$

If it helps, write as a product of fractions, grouped by variable.

$\frac{6}{3} \frac{x^{2}}{x} \frac{y^{3}}{y}$

Now reduce using exponent rules.

$2xy^{2}$

Y = 60x + 20<br> y = 65x

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

4=x y=325

Step-by-step explanation:

60x + 20 = 65x

group the variables

20=5x

because you subtracted 60x from both

4=x

because you divided 5 from both

now substitute 5 for x

65×5 is 325

y=325

A building is 3 ft from a 9-fence that surrounds the property. A worker wants to wash a window in the building 14 ft from the gr

kvv77 [185]

The height of the fence is irrelevant. The bottom of the ladder is 3+8 = 11 feet from the building. The window is 14ft above the ground:
sqrt(14^2+11^2) = length of your ladder.
