<h3>Answer:</h3>

p^(m+n) . . . . . . . parentheses are required

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The answer follows directly from the rules of exponents:

... (a^b)×(a^c) = a^(b+c)

Here, you have a=p, b=m, c=n, so

... (p^m)×(p^n) = p^(m+n)

_____

<em>Where the rule comes from</em>

An exponent sigifies <em>repeated multiplication</em>. That is ...

... p^3 = p·p·p . . . . . . . the exponent means p is a factor 3 times

... p^2 = p·p . . . . . . . . .the exponent means p is a factor 2 times

When we multiply these terms together, we have ...

... (p^3)×(p^2) = (p·p·p)×(p·p) = p·p·p·p·p = p^(2+3) = p^5

The number of times p is a factor of the product is the total of the number of times p is a factor in the factors of the product.

A mowing company charges $840 plus $17 per hour. Another moving company charges $760 plus $22 per hour. How long is a job that c
Korvikt [17]

Answer: 16 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations are:

840 + 17x

and

760 + 22x

with x being the amount of hours

840 + 17x = 760 + 22x  

-760

80 + 17x = 22x

-17x

80 = 5x

/5

16 = x

840 + 17(16) = 1,112

760 + 22(16) = 1,112

How do I do this? please detail steps.
vladimir2022 [97]
Define
{x} =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x_{1}\\x_{2}\end{array}\right]

Then
x₁ = cos(t) x₁(0) + sin(t) x₂(0)
x₂ = -sin(t) x₁(0) + cos(t) x₂(0)

Differentiate to obtain
x₁' = -sin(t) x₁(0) + cos(t) x₂(0)
x₂' = -cos(t) x₁(0) - sin(t) x₂(0)

That is,
\dot{x} =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-sin(t)&cos(t)\\-cos(t)&-sin(t)\end{array}\right] x(0)

Note that
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1\\-1&09\end{array}\right]   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos(t)&sin(t)\\-sin(t)&cos(t)\end{array}\right] =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-sin(t)&cos(t)\\-cos(t)&-sin(t)\end{array}\right]

Therefore
x(t) =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1\\-1&0\end{array}\right] x(t)

One number is 7 more than another. The difference between their squares is 161. What are the numbers?
sergeinik [125]
X is 7 more than y
x>y then
difference betwen squares is 161 so


x=7+y
and
x²-y²=161

so
x=7+y
sub that for x in other equation

(7+y)²-y²=161
y²+14y+49-y²=161
14y+49=161
minus 49 both sides
14y=112
divide both sides by 14
y=8

sub back

x=7+y
x=7+8
x=15

the numbers are 15 and 8
