Hello there.

<span>One number is 4 less than a second number. twice the second number is 16 less than 5 times the first. find the two numbers
</span>
Answer: Call the first number x.
First number is x.
Second number is x + 4.
This is the equation presented.
2(x + 4) = 5x - 16.
2x + 8 = 5x - 16.
16 + 8 = 5x - 2x
24 = 3x
x = 8.
x + 4 = 12.
The two numbers are 8 and 12.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^

What are three ways to get 256 using exponents
Nastasia [14]

recall from the previous posting, 2⁸ = 256, so that's one way to represent it.

now, another way hmmm


\bf 2^8\implies 2^{2\cdot 4}\implies (2^2)^4\implies (4)^4\implies 4^4&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{\textit{yet another way}}{2^8\implies 2^{4\cdot 2}}\implies (2^4)^2\implies (16)^2\implies 16^2

Answer:

1/ 9^5

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing exponents with the same base, subtract the exponents

9^2 / 9^7

9 ^ (2-7)

9^ -5

We know that a^ -b = 1/ a^b

1/ 9^5

Since theres 4 numbers and 60 spins if you divide it you get the average number that all the numbers would land on. 2 would be landed on 15 times if it went exactly to the calculations. not 100% sure though
