Answer:

2^1* 3^7

Step-by-step explanation:

8^-1 * 3^3/ 2^-4 * 9^-2

Negative exponents move from the numerator to the denominator or from the denominator to the numerator

2^4*9^2* 3^3 /8^1

Rewriting 9^2 as 3^2^2 = 3^4 and 8 = 2^3

2^4 * 3^3 * 3^4 / 2^3

2^4/ 2^3 = 2 and 3^3 * 3^4 = 3^(3+4) = 3^7

2* 3^7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{8^{-1}*3^{3}}{2^{-4}*9^{-2}}=\frac{(2^{3})^{-1} * 3^{3}}{2^{-4}*(3^{2})^{-2}}\\\\=\frac{2^{3*-1}*3^{3}}{2^{-4}*3^{2*-2}}\\\\=\frac{2^{-3}*3^{3}}{2^{-4}*3^{-4}}\\\\=2^{-3+4}*3^{3+4}\\\\=2^{1}*3^{7}\\\\=2*3^{7}$

If there are 26 bags EACH costing $9 then you would use equation A.
26 (The number of gift bags) x the price of each bag would cost close to $234. That would be the reasonable estimate and I hope this helps!

Easton is going to invest $340 and leave it in an account for 8 years. Assuming the interest is compounded quarterly, what inter

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

100.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the interest is compounded quarterly, and there are 4 quarters per year, that would leave us with 32 quarters total where interest is acquired. Now, we need to find the interest rate, that would be required in order to end up with 420 dollars after 32 quarters.

We can setup a formula using our period of time and the money he invested into the bank:

$340(x)^{32}=420$
