Answer:

3^{-2} = \dfrac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of negative exponent:

a^{-n} = \dfrac{1}{a^n}

In our case, a = 3 and -n = -2.

3^{-2} = \dfrac{1}{3^2}

Now we just evaluate the power in the denominator.

3^{-2} = \dfrac{1}{3^2} = \dfrac{1}{9}

N/8= 25/40<br> N/20=85/100<br> 2/3=16/n<br> 5/6=25/n
4vir4ik [10]
N/8 = 25/40
40n = 25 * 8
40n = 200
n = 200/40
n = 5

n/20 = 85/100
100n = 85 * 20
100n = 1700
n = 1700/100
n = 17

2/3 = 16/n
2n = 16 * 3
2n = 48
n = 48/2
n = 24

5/6 = 25/n
5n = 25 * 6
5n = 150
n = 150/5
n = 30

If ab = 20 cm and bc = 4 cm, then what are the possible lengths for ac so that ab, bc and ac can form a triangle?

16<ac<24
If it is less than 16 it will not form a triangle and if it is more than 24 the other two legs will not be larger than ac is.

Theo and Kade worked on a school project together. Theo worked on the project 3 fewer hours than Kade did. Altogether, they work
babunello [35]

Let the hours Kade worked = X

Theo would be X - 3 ( 3 less than Kade).

Now you have:

X  + X -3 = 27

Combine like terms:

2x - 3 = 27

Add 3 to each side:

2x = 30

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 15

Kade worked 15 hours.

Theo worked 12 hours.
