Answer:
I think that would be 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Do everything in the lines before anything else. -2 becomes a 2 and then you add that with the 12 and divide 12 on both sides to get one.
'of' means mltilply
jane=2/9 of ben
ben=3/4
jane=2/9 of 3/4
jane=2/9 times 3/4=(2*3)/(9*4)=6/36=1/6 miles
Answer:
x = 2 11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the equation by 12. This eliminates fractions.
... 12 -12x -28 = 12x +27 -36x -8
Collect terms.
... -16 -12x = -24x +19
Add 24x+16
... 12x = 35
Divide by the coefficient of x
... x = 35/12 = 2 11/12
The answer is: " 27 " .

3⁵ / 3² = 3⁽⁵⁻²⁾ = 3³ = 3 * 3 * 3 = 9 * 3 = 27 .

-Edit -- Note the following property of exponents : "quotient rule" of exponents:
_____________________________________________
Given that "a" and "b" are positive integers; and that "x" is a real number greater than "zero";
____________________________________________
If a <span>≥ b , then:
x</span>ᵃ /xᵇ = x⁽ᵃ ⁻ ᵇ⁾ ;
____________________________________________
If a <span>< b , then:
</span>
xᵃ /xᵇ = x⁽ᵇ ⁻ ᵃ⁾
