All you need to remember is the rules
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us remember
a to the m power x a to the nth power is = a to the m+n power. (add the exponents)
And
a to the m power ÷ a to the nth power is = a to the m-n power. (subtract the exponents) So
14 to the -4 power x 14 to the 7 power= 14 to the -4+7 which is equal to 14 to the 3rd power
The right answer is -2/3

Good luck on your assignment..
Answer:
x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
I always change the decimals into whole numbers by multiplying them by 10. If you do this, it is much easier to solve. All you do is multiply every term by 10.
the equation changes to
-5(x+3)-2x=41
-5x-15-2x=41
combine like terms
-7x-15=41
bring the 15 over to the 41
-7x=56
divide everything by 7
-x=8
change x to a positive
x=-8
If Bobby claims Peter started with 21 cards, then we'll work this into our equation.
21 - 3 (that he lost) = 18
18 / 2 (the half he gave) = 9
So this means that he did have 21 cards to begin with. Please reply to this with a list of the answers that can/could be checked!
