Answer:

0.0405

Step-by-step explanation:

10^-2 is the same as 1/100, so if you multiply 4.05 x 1/100, you get 0.0405.

Another way to think about it is by looking at the exponent -2. You need to move the decimal point 2 spaces to the left -- and add zeroes to any spaces that don't already have numbers.

So if you start with 4.05, and move the decimal one space to the left, you get 0.405, and then you move it one more space, and you get 0.0405.

A salsa recipe uses green pepper, and onion, and tomato in the extended ratio 2:5:9. How many cups of onion are needed to make 9

Vlad1618 [11]

The answer is 30 cups

Let x be a multiplier. So:
2x + 5x + 9x = 96
16x = 96
x = 96/16
x = 6 cups

Since the number of onion cups is 5x, then 5 * 6 = 30 cups are needed to make 96 cups of salsa.

Alexxandr [17]

If the denominator does not equal 0, the equivalent expression of $\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$ is $\frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$ $\frac{x^{10} y^{14}}{729}$
