Let x be the height of the tree.

1.3 x
------- = ------
1.8 7

1.8x = (1.3) (7)

1.8x /1.8 = 9.1 / 1.8 (divide both sides of equation by 1.8)

x = 5.1 meters

ANSWER: The tree is 5.1 meters tall.

Which expression is equal to ? 8 5 A. 5 8 B. 8 • 8 • 8 • 8 • 8 C. 5 • 5 • 5 • 5 • 5 • 5 • 5 • 5 D. 40

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

B. 8 • 8 • 8 • 8 • 8

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm gonna assume you meant 8 to the 5th power, or $8^5$ .

Step 1: Define and explain.

Remember: exponents are simply repeated multiplication.

Exponents tell you how many times to multiply the base number by itself.

---------------------------------------------------

Step 2: Solve.

$base-8$

$exponent-5$

$8^5=8*8*8*8*8$

Step 3: Conclude.

Therefore, $8^5$ is the same as $8*8*8*8*8.$
