Answer:

8 floors

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of employees is directly proportional to the number of floors that each building has.

The first building has 32 floors and it occupies 189 employees. Therefore:

189 α 32

=> 189 = k * 32 = 32k

where k = constant of proportionality

=> k = 189/32

The new building has 50 employees, therefore:

50 = kN

where N = number of floors

=> 50 = 189/32 * N

N = (50 * 32) / 189 ≅ 8 floors

The new building should have 8 floors

the circle below has center T. suppose that m UV = 138 degrees and that UW is tangent to the circle at U. find the following
alisha [4.7K]

Angle UTV is basically given: it's 138°.

Moreover, since UTV is isosceles, the other two angles have the same measure x. We thus have

138+x+x=180 \iff 2x=42 \iff x=21

So, TUV is 21°, and VUW is complementary, so it must be 69° so that they sum up to 90°

Write 5 to the power of 8 as a quotient of two exponential terms with the same base in four different ways. use negative or zero
ryzh [129]
So, we are given 5^8. It was happy and content. But then... we had to write it as a quotient of two exponential terms with the same base in four different ways and use negative or zero exponents and ahhhhhh!!!

... anyways...

We'll build a quotient of two exponential terms with the same base 5. Something like this:

5^a / 5^b

We need them to make 5^8 when we are done. I'll first use a zero exponent.

[1] Now, zero exponents are nice since they make things equal 1. Like 5^0 = 1. Well, obviously, 5^8 / 1 = 5^8. So, our first quotient can be:

5^8 / 5^0

Done.

[2] Let's try this on its head. This one's a little weird. Remember that negative exponents flip things upside down. So 5^-8 = 1/5^8    and   1/5^-8 = 5^8 for example. In fact... that's the answer!

5^0 / 5^-8 = 5^8

Done.

[3] Let's try to not use 0s or 8s. We can be clever and do something like this:

5^-1 / 5^-9

What the heck is that? Well, we just flip them and get:

5^-1 / 5^-9 = 5^9 / 5^1 = 5^8

Done.

[4] Can you come up with one last trick on your own? Try it!
