What is the answer and how do you solve 21x^3/3x^−1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  as written: 7x^2

  perhaps intended: 7x^4

Step-by-step explanation:

As written, the Order of Operations specifies that the only denominator factor is 3, so the expression is interpreted as ...

  \dfrac{21x^3}{3}x^{-1}=\dfrac{21}{3}x^{3-1}=7x^2

___

Sometimes grouping of denominator factors is intended, but parentheses are not written as they should be. If the intention is ...

  21x^3/(3x^-1)

then the simplification is ...

  \dfrac{21x^3}{3x^{-1}}=\dfrac{21}{3}x^{3-(-1)}=7x^4

_____

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  a^b/a^c = a^(b-c)

PLS HELP!!!!What are the sine, cosine and tangent ratios of<br>angle W in the triangle below​
Ksju [112]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember SOH-CAH-TOA:

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

The side adjacent to W is 4.  The side opposite of W is 3.  The hypotenuse is 5.

Therefore:

Sine = 3 / 5

Cosine = 4 / 5

Tangent = 3 / 4

You triple your account balance by making a deposit. Then you withdraw $28.50 from your bank account. Now your account is overdr
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Your original account balance before you made the deposit is $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = your original account balance.

You triple your account balance by making a deposit. This means

New account balance = 3 × x = 3x

Then you withdraw $28.50 from your bank account. This means that you have $(3x - 28.5) left.

Now your account is overdrawn by $10.50. This means you have withdrawn beyond what you have in your account. Your new account balance is -$10.5. Therefore,

3x - 28.5 = - 10.5

3x = -10.5 + 28.5 = 18

x = 18/3 = 6

Your original account balance before you made the deposit is $6
