YOU'RE WELCOME :D
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify recall exponent rules:
1. An exponent is only a short cut for multiplication. It simplifies how we write the expression.
2. When we multiply terms with the same bases, we add exponents.
3. When we divide terms with the same bases, we subtract exponents.
4. When we have a base to the exponent of 0, it is 1.
5. A negative exponent creates a fraction.
6. When we raise an exponent to an exponent, we multiply exponents.
7. When we have exponents with parenthesis, we apply it to everything in the parenthesis.
We will use these rules to simplify.
Use rule #3 to simplify inside the parenthesis first.

Now simplify the exponent of 4 using rule 6.

For this case, the first thing we must do is find the scale factor.
For this, we use one of the dimensions. We will use the width of the photo.
We have then:

Then, we look for the value of the height of the new photo. To do this, we multiply the scale factor by the original dimension.
We have then:

Answer:
the new height will be:
d.168 inches
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(x, y) = (8, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant equations are ...
3x -y = 22
x +2y = 12
__
We can eliminate y by adding twice the first equation to the second.
2(3x -y) +(x +2y) = 2(22) +(12)
7x = 56
x = 8
Substituting into the first equation gives ...
3(8) -y = 22
y = 24 -22 = 2
The first number is 8; the second number is 2.
I'm pretty sure that the answer to the fudge cakes is 8 friends
