Breaking down:
$\frac{3}{15} = \frac{1}{5}$
${w}^{6} \div {w}^{2} = {w}^{4}$
${v}^{5} \div v = {v}^{4}$

Therefore,
$\frac{3 {w}^{6} {v}^{5} }{15 {w}^{2}v } \\ = \frac{{w}^{4} {v}^{4} }{5}$

Hope this helps. - M

Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution of the equation. y = x - 5; (6, 11)

sashaice [31]

Answer:

Not a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x-5

Plug in the point (6,11)

11=6-5

11=1

11≠1

Because the left side of the equation and the right side aren't equal, the ordered pair (6,11) is not a solution to the equation y=x-5.

I hope this helps!

Justin is on a road trip. Over the past two days, he’s driven a total distance of 504 miles at an average speed of 56 miles/hour

irakobra [83]

Recall d = rt, distance = rate * time.

now, he has a speed rate of 56 mph for a distance of 504

$\bf d=rt\implies 504=56t\implies \cfrac{504}{56}=t\implies \stackrel{hours}{9}=t$

so, at that speed the whole driving time is 9 hours then. Ok, he drove 2 hours today, that means he drove 7 yesterday, 9 - 2.

how many miles is it for 7 hours at 56mph? d = rt ---> d = 56 * 7

that many miles he drove yesterday.
