Answer:

We sold 161 more products than our competitors.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the number of products that we sold. Given that our competitors sold 350 products last month and we sold 46% more, we can think this as that we sold 146 % relative to our competitors.

We can write the following relationship :

$\frac{350}{100}=\frac{x}{146}$

Given that the 350 products represent 100%.

Solving the equation for x :

$\frac{350}{100}=\frac{x}{146}\\x=\frac{(350).(146)}{100}=511$

Therefore, 511 products are the 146% If 350 products are 100%.

We conclude that we sold 511 products.

Now the difference

$511-350=161$ products

Expresses how many more we sold in comparison to our competitors. The number is 161 products.

<span>Find out how much is 46% of 350 and add this number to 350 to get the number of products we sold. 46 % of 350 = 350 * 46/100 (46% is converted intro a fraction) = 161. The number of products we sold = 350 + 161 = 511</span>

Which shows the following expression after the negative exponents have been eliminated?

belka [17]

Answer:

The given expression $\frac{a^3}{ab^{-4}}$ after the negative exponents have been eliminated becomes $\frac{a^3b^{4}}{ab^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression $\frac{a^3b^{-2}}{ab^{-4}}$

We have to write expression after the negative exponents have been eliminated and a ≠ 0 and b ≠ 0.

Consider the given expression $\frac{a^3b^{-2}}{ab^{-4}}$

We have to eliminate the negative exponents,

Using property of exponents, $x^{-m}=\frac{1}{x^m}$ we have ,

$b^{-2}=\frac{1}{b^2} \\\\b^{-4}=\frac{1}{b^4}$

Substitute, we get,

$\frac{a^3}{ab^{-4}}$ becomes $\frac{a^3b^{4}}{ab^{2}}$

Thus, the given expression $\frac{a^3}{ab^{-4}}$ after the negative exponents have been eliminated becomes $\frac{a^3b^{4}}{ab^{2}}$

Lines ℓ and m are intersected by transversal t. ℓ ∥ m. Lines l and m are horizontal with l above m and intersected by transveral

artcher [175]

Answer:

<5 = 105 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the description given, since line l is parallel to m then <4 is alternate to <5 and two alternate angles are equal, if thst is the case

<4 = <5 (alternate angle)

Since <4 = 105 degrees, hence m<5 = 105 degrees
