When you are multiplying exponents with the same base, you can add the exponents. This is represented as:

In our case we are multiplying exponents with the same base 8 and exponents -7 and 5. The sum of -7 and 5 is -2, so our answer is
.
Answer: 04
Explanation: We are given 3-2x=-5. We would subtract 3 from both sides. The equation would then look like this after subtraction from both sides: -2x=-8. We would then divide -2 by both sides so we can isolate the variable. The equation would look like this x=4.
3-2x=-5
-2x=-8
x=4
Answer:
Decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the numbers in general 1.6 has a one in it. Meanwhile 0.95 is part of one. Think of it as money. Which would you rather have $1.60 or 0.95 cents.
Answer:
2^12
Step-by-step explanation:
16^3 can be rewritten as (2^4)^3 which can then be rewritten as 2^12 by multiplying the exponents
Answer is a, 57.49.
17.42-12.60-9.62= $-4.80+62.29=57.49
