1 answer:

4 0

Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number

Equation:
x + x+9 = 171

Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90

81 + 90 = 171

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have:

$\frac{6^{\frac{3}{10}}}{6^\frac{1}{5}}$

To simplify, we can use the quotient rule of exponents, which says that if we have:

$\frac{x^a}{x^b}$

Then this equals:

$=x^{a-b}$

So, our equation will be:

$\frac{6^{\frac{3}{10}}}{6^\frac{1}{5}}\\=6^{\frac{3}{10}-\frac{1}{5}}$

Subtract the exponents. Turn 1/5 into 2/10 by multiplying both layers be 2. Thus:

$6^{\frac{3}{10}-\frac{1}{5}}\\=6^{\frac{3}{10}-\frac{2}{10}}$

Subtract in the exponent:

$=6^{\frac{1}{10}}$

So, our answer is C :)

Please please please help me 19 points this is due today i know the answer is -47 but i dont know how to work the problem out to

Eduardwww [97]

So first we need to know this:

Two negative signs make a positive
Two positives make a positive
One positive and one negative makes a negative.

So we can turn the equation to -4 -44 - - 1
2 minuses make plus
-4 -44 +1 = -48 +1 = -47
