Greetings!

Yes, the degree on a monomial can be negative:

Example:
9x^{-2}

This is equal to:
1/9x^{2}

Hope this helps.

If 2x + 5 = 8x, then 12x = ?A.5B.10C.15D.20
butalik [34]
<h2>Answer:</h2>10.\text{ Option B is correct}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given the equation expressed as:

2x+5=8x

First, we need to calculate the value of "x" from the given expression.

Step 1: Given the equation 2x + 5 = 8x

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides:

\begin{gathered} 2x+5-5=8x-5 \\ 2x+\cancel{5}-\cancel{5}=8x-5 \\ 2x=8x-5 \end{gathered}

Step 3: Subtract 8x from both sides

\begin{gathered} 2x-8x=8x-8x-5 \\ -6x=\cancel{8x}-\cancel{8x}-5 \\ -6x=-5 \end{gathered}

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6

\begin{gathered} \frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{-5}{-6} \\ x=\frac{5}{6} \end{gathered}

Step 5: Get the value of 12x. Substitute x = 5/6 into the expression to have:

\begin{gathered} 12x=12(\frac{5}{6}) \\ 12x=\cancel{12}^2(\frac{5}{\cancel{6}^1}) \\ 12x=2\times5 \\ 12x=10 \end{gathered}

Therefore the value of 12x is 10

Answer:

  90 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given linear dimensions have the ratio ...

  red/blue = (6 m)/(4 m) = 3/2

The ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of the linear dimensions:

  (red area)/(blue area) = (3/2)²

  S = (blue area)(9/4) = (40 m²)(9/4)

  S = 90 m²
