Answer:

48.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply the number by itself as many times as the number of the exponent is. In this case you multiply -3 to itself 6 times which makes -729, 2 to the 6th power is 64, -3 to the 5th power is -243, and 2 to the 2nd power is 4. Then you multiply -729 by 64 which makes -46656 and multiply -243 by 4 which makes -972, and then divide -972 from -46656 which makes 48.

The table shows how much a store charges for certain numbers of pencils. Number of pencils (p) Cost (c) 4 $0.72 7 $1.26 12 $2.16

Arada [10]

Find the rate of change, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), from the data given...

(2.16-1.26)/(12-7)=0.18

(1.26-0.72)/(7-4)=0.18

Since the rate is constant, this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b. Furthermore, since 0 pencils cost 0, b=0, so the cost of the pencils is simply the number of pencils times 18 cents...

c(p)=0.18p (cost with respect to pencils is 0.18 times the number of pencils)

Solve three-halvesx – 4 = 16

Leto [7]

3/2x - 4 = 16

Add 4 to both sides.

3/2x = 20

Multiply by 2/3.

x = 13 1/3
