Question

The quotient of 6 raised raised to the power of 3 and 9, decrease by 5

Answer 1

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be 'x'

Given:

The value of 'x' is defined as the quotient of 6 raised to the power of 3 and 9, decrease by 5.

The quotient of $6^3$ and 9 is given as:

$Q=\frac{6^3}{9}\\Q=\frac{6\times 6\times 6}{9}\\Q=\frac{216}{9}=24$

Now, the quotient is decreased by 5. So, the number 'x' is:

$x=Q-5$

Plug in 24 for 'Q' and solve for 'x'. This gives,

$x=24-5\\x=19$

Therefore, the number defined by the statement "the quotient of 6 raised to the power of 3 and 9, decrease by 5" is 19.
