6% tax=
6/100 x $19.08
=$1.1448

Total price- 6% tax
$19.08 - $1.1448
= $17.9352

Cost of the cat food- x
x= $17.9352 - $12.25
x = $5.6852

Select the correct answer. which expression is equivalent to the given expression? assume the denominator does not equal zero. a

Alexxandr [17]

If the denominator does not equal 0, the equivalent expression of $\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$ is $\frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$ $\frac{x^{10} y^{14}}{729}$

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$

Divide 14 by 7

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2} = \frac{2x^4y^6}{x^8y^2}$

Apply the law of indices

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2} = \frac{2y^{6-2}}{x^{8-4}}$

Evaluate the differences in the exponents

$\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2} = \frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$

Hence, the equivalent expression of $\frac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}$ is $\frac{2y^{4}}{x^{4}}$

What is the first operation used to evaluate 5+7•6-2÷4

Kisachek [45]

Multiply 7x6 since when using pemdas, multiplication and division can be inverted, i.e. if multiplication is before division then you multiply and vice versa.

Hope this helps!
