Answer:
sides
14 X 22 = 308 square foot there are four of these
308 X 4 = 1232 square foot.
triangles
A= 0.5 X b X h
0.5 X 14 X 10 = 70 square foot again there are four of these 70 X 4 = 280 square foot
1232 + 280 = 1512 square foot
1512/213 = 7.09859154
8 gallons of paint will need to be purchased.
I'm confused, the answers are larger than the trail?
If N = 8
if M = 7
then the equation is 8(2) - 7
do the multiplication first 8(2) = 16
now do the subtraction 16 - 7 = 9
Answer:
The equation is following the mathematical rule of multiplying exponents.
Step-by-step explanation:
As an example to back up the answer, when you have half of a dollar, that is $0.50, if you took a half (1/2) of $0.50 that would be one fourth (1/4) of a dollar, but half of 50 cents ($0.50) A similar thing is happening with this problem. When you have two numbers (2 and 4) when you multiply them together, they equal to eight (8) for this problem, when you multiply two exponents together, you are raising the coefficient (a real number like 6) to the power of 2, and then taking that number and multiplying it by the power of 4. This is similar to the half of 50 cents, is equal to 1/4 of dollar ($0.25)
Hope this helps explain multiplying exponents together, and the mathematical rule behind it.
