Answer:

b=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

25^b\cdot 125^{b+2}=125^b

Notice that 125 is the same as 5³. So:

25^b\cdot ((5)^3)^{b+2}=((5)^3)^b

Also, 25 is the same as 5². So:

((5)^2)^b\cdot ((5)^3)^{b+2}=((5)^3)^b

Power of a power property:

5^{2b}\cdot 5^{3(b+2)}=5^{3b}

Power of a product property:

5^{2b+3(b+2)}=5^{3b}

Since they have the same base, the exponents are equal. So:

2b+3(b+2)=3b

Solve for b. Distribute on the left:

2b+3b+6=3b

Combine like terms on the left:

5b+6=3b

Subtract 5b from both sides:

6=-2b

Divide both sides by -2. So, the value of b is:

b=-3

And we're done!

Simplify 7m - 11n - n + 5m.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The simplified form of the given expression is 12(m -n).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

7m - 11n - n + 5m

We need to simplify the given expression.

Rearrange the terms according to the variables.

7m+5m - 11n - n

On combining like terms, we get

(7m+5m)+( - 11n - n)

On simplification, we get

(12m)+( -12n)

12m -12n

Taking GCF common.

12(m -n)

Therefore the simplified form of the given expression is 12(m -n).
