Let the lowest score be x.

<u>The 3 consecutive even scores are:</u>

1st score = x

2nd score = x + 2

3rd score = x + 4

-

<u>Sum of their score is 270:</u>

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270

-

<u>Solve x:</u>

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 270

3x + 6 = 270

3x = 264

x = 88

-

<u>Find their scores:</u>

1st score = x = 88

2nd score = x + 2 = 88 + 2 = 90

3rd score = x + 4 = 88 + 4 = 92

-

Answer: The scores are 88, 90 and 92

What is the value of 3 to the power 2 over 3 to the power 4? A. 1 over 81 B. 1 over 27 C. 1 over 9 D. 1 over 3
rodikova [14]
One way you could solve this is to just multiply the top and bottom out so that you get 9/81, reducing it by 9/9 to get 1/9 or option C.
Another way would be to do 3^{(2-4)} since dividing numbers with exponents would be subtracting the bottom exponent from the top exponent, provided that the base number (in this case 3) is the same for both. For this method, you would get 3^{-2}, which is equal to 1/9 or .1 repeating, the same answer that you'd get with the first method.

Point G is between F and H on line FH. Use the given information solve for x and then find FG AND GH.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

X=6

FG=31

GH=22

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: FG+GH=FH

rewrite with values

4x+7 + 5x-8 = 53

combine like terms

9x-1 = 53

add 1 to both sides

9x = 54

divide by 9

x = 6

use 6 end solve for FG and GH

FG = 4(6) + 7 = 31

GH = 5(6) - 8 = 22

Check your answers.. Do FG and GH add up to equal FH (53)?

31 + 22 = 53

I hope this made sense.

Answer:\ \boxed{5^2}

\sqrt[n]{a}=a^\frac{1}{n}\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\\sqrt5=5^\frac{1}{2}\\----------------\\25=5^2\\----------------\\78,125=5^7\\----------------\\\text{use}\\\\a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\\dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}\\----------------\\\\\dfrac{\sqrt5\times78,125}{25\times5^{\frac{7}{2}}}=\dfrac{5^\frac{1}{2}\times5^7}{5^2\times5^\frac{7}{2}}=\dfrac{5^{\frac{1}{2}+7}}{5^{2+3\frac{1}{2}}}=\dfrac{5^{7\frac{1}{2}}}{5^{5\frac{1}{2}}}=5^{7\frac{1}{2}-5\frac{1}{2}}=\boxed{5^2}
