The equation $a^7xy-a^6y-a^5x=a^4(b^4-1)$ is equivalent to the equation $(a^mx-a^n)(a^py-a^2)=a^4b^4$ for some integers $m$, $n$

, and $p$. Find $mnp$.

Let <span>simplify the equations a^7xy-a^6y-a^5x=a^4(b^4-1) and (a^mx-a^n)(a^py-a^2)=a^4b^4:
</span>
<span>1) a^7xy-a^6y-a^5x+a^4=a^4b^4
</span>
<span>and
</span>
<span>2) a^{m+p}xy-a^{n+p}y-a^{m+2}x+a^{n+2}=a^4b^4.
</span>
<span>Equate the coefficients:
</span><span>
</span><span>xy: m+p=7  \\ y: n+p=6 \\ x:  m+2=5 \\ 1: n+2=4.</span>
Then n=2 \\ p=4 \\ m=3 and mnp=24.

Can anybody show me the steps to answering this question? 7x - 2z = 4 - xy<br> (solve for x)
Fed [463]

Answer: 2z+4/y+7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to solve for x

7x-2z=4-xy

Add xy to both sides:

7x-2z+xy=-xy+4+xy= xy+7x-2z=4

Then you add 2z to both sides:

xy+7x-2z+2z=4+2z

xy+7x=2z+4

Then you factor out variable x

x(y+7)=2z+4

You divide both sides by y+7

x(y+7)/y+7= 2z+4/y+7

Which we would get x=2z+4/y+7

Determine the promotional price of each item at each store
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price of the music box = $80

Price after 20% discount = Original price - discount

                                         = 80 - 20% of 80

                                         = 80 - (\frac{20}{100}\times 80)

                                         = 80 - 16

                                         = $64

Price after 40% discount = 80 - 40% of $80

                                         = 80 - 32

                                         = $48

Original price of A faux Ming vase = $60

Price after 20% discount = Original price - discount

                                         = 60 - 20% of $60

                                         = 60 - 12                                    

                                         = $48

Price after 40% discount = Original price - discount

                                         = 60 - 40% of 60

                                         = 60 - 24

                                         = $36
