Simplify x^1/3(x^1/2+2x^2)

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

$x^{5/6 } + 2\cdot x^{7/3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $x^{1/3}\cdot (x^{1/2} + 2\cdot x^{2})$ , which can be simplified solely by algebraic means. We proceed to describe all the steps needed for simplification:

1) $x^{1/3}\cdot (x^{1/2} + 2\cdot x^{2})$ Given.

2) $x^{1/3}\cdot x^{1/2} + 2\cdot (x^{1/3}\cdot x^{2})$ Distributive and associative properties.

3) $x^{5/6 } + 2\cdot x^{7/3}$ $a^{m}\cdot a^{n} = a^{m+n}$ /Result

5 5 I think of a number, treble it then add on 3, the result is equal to 6. Find the value of the original number I thought of.

Licemer1 [7]

Let the number be x

If 3 is added to tripple the number then the result is 6

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x+3=6$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=6-3$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=3$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=1$

Maria has a bag with 6 red marbles , 6 blue marbles , and 4 green marbles . Without looking Maria pick one marble. She does not

podryga [215]

40%

The probability of her getting a red marble is the number of red marbles divided by the number of total marbles. Since she picked a green marble first, we must subtract one marble from the total number of marbles, so that the total # of marbles is 6 + 6 + 4 = 16 - 1 (green marble) = 15. Since there are 6 red marbles, our probability is 6/15 or 2/5. Converted to percentage form, this is 0.4 —> 40%
