Whenever we have a negative exponent, that means that the function should be in the denomenator. then the exponent will be positive.
Example
16^-4 = 1/(16^4)
Answer:
50 nickels, 20 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):
<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>
the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.
So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.
Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the isosceles-base theorem, the measure of the angles adjacent to the pair of congruent sides of the triangle are equal. Since the problem declares 
, the remaining unknown angles are equal (
). The sum of the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 
.
Therefore:
.
