7.6 - 5(k + 1.1) = 1.6
7.6 - 5(k + 1.1) - 7.6 = 1.6 - 7.6
-5(k +1.1) = -6
-5(k + 1.1) -6
-------------- = ---------
-5 -5
k + 1.1 = 6
-----
5
k + 1.1 - 1.1 = 6
----- - 1.1
5
k = 0.1
Answer:
We can calculate the price with both sales by multiplying the 75.5 units of money by both percentages (to multiply them, we divide them by 100 first):
75.5 * 0.24 * 0.6
10.8

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We have several properties of exponents in use here. The two that are used are:
<em>(Exponents with the same base that are being multiplied together can have the exponents added)</em>
<em>(A base raised to a power, and then raised to another power means that you can multiply the exponents to get the same result as doing inside operations and then outside operations)</em>
<em />
Let's apply it!
First, let's simplify what's inside the parenthesis.
<em>(Remember, they have the same base of "x", so we can add the exponents)</em>
=
= 
Now we have
. Let's use the second rule.
=
