D) (10 x 55) + (10 x 55) + (10 x 55) + (10 x 55)
use distributive rule to factor out 55:
55 (10+10+10+10) = 55×40
Answer:
If you look over the steps you can see that until 4x + x + 3 = 18, evertything is dandy. But the step after that 4x + x =21 seems a bit fishy.
Think about it they subtract 3 from both sides so the first side is correct
4x + x, but they added 3 to the other side:
not
4x+x = 21
Then we solve for 4x + x = 15
To solve for y we use :
y = x+3
y = 3+3 = 6
so (3,6) is the right answer
Answer:
C 36
Step-by-step explanation:
When we have to exponents to the same base, and we are dividing them, we can subtract the exponents
a^b ÷ a^c = a^ (b-c)
6^7 ÷ 6^5 = 6^(7-5)
= 6^(2)
= 36
Answer:
1. The negative sign on an exponent means the reciprocal. A negative exponent tells how many times to divide a base number.
2. A positive tells how many times to multiply a base number.
could you also give me a brainliest if I am correct.
thanks!
Answer:
B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
B:
Anything to a negative power means that it is 1/that to the positive power.
E.g. x^-1 = 1/x^1
In other words, anything to the power of a negative switches sides of a fraction (i.e. if in numerator moves to denominator and vice versa.)
1/x^-1 = 1/1/x^1 which is just equal to x, because there are x number of 1/xs in one (1/x * x =1) Therefore Option B is equal to just x.
D: (assuming the first given term is x^1/3 and not X1/3 (?) Correct me if I'm wrong).
x^1/3 * x^1/3 * x^1/3 is also equal to just x.
This is because when multiplying together terms with the same base (x in this case) the exponents just add together, so:
x^1/3 * x^1/3 * x^1/3 = x^(1/3 +1/3 +1/3) = x^1 = x.
Therefore B and D are equivalent because they both equal x.
Hope this helped!
