Answer:
5 x 10 to the 6th power is 5,000,000
5 x 10 to the 4th power is 50,000
5,000,000 / 50,000 = 100
it is 100 times larger
Step-by-step explanation:
10 goes into 67 six times making it 6 7/10, which cannot be simplified. Therefore, if can be left as it is, an improper fraction 67/10, or a mixed number 6 7/10.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
A cube root is the same as a 1/3 power. The square of that gives a 2/3 power.
a = 2/3

<em>Additional comment</em>
You can see the relationship between a root index and an exponent if you consider what the root means.
Consider a cube root, for example. When you cube the root, you get the original number:
(∛x)·(∛x)·(∛x) = x
Now, let's write the root as a power of x: x^a.
(x^a)·(x^a)·(x^a) = x . . . . . where x^a = ∛x
We know this product is ...
x^(a+a+a) = x^(3a) = x^1
This tells us that ...
3a = 1 ⇒ a = 1/3
That is, ∛x = x^(1/3).
Of course an n-th root is multiplied by itself n times to get the original number, so the corresponding exponent is x^(1/n).
