To solve any equation, you do whatever you need to do
to wind up with the unknown quantity all alone on one side.
BUT ... whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must
also do to the other side.

Here, we have the
he original equation: -15 = a/5

Multiply each side by 5 : -75 = a

and bada-bing, THERE's the solution !

Answer:

-5 when ...

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules of exponents can help you simplify the given product.

<h3>Rules</h3>

(a/b)^c = (a^c)/(b^c)

(ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c)

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

<h3>Application</h3>

$\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^2(-x^2y)^3=\\\\\dfrac{x^2(-1)^3(x^2)^3y^3}{y^2}=-x^{2+2\cdot3}y^{3-2}=-x^8y$

This expression does not match any of those offered.

When x=-1 and y=5, this becomes ...

$-(-1)^8(5)=\boxed{-5}$

To find the surface area of the pyramid, in square inches, Vikram wrote (33.2) (34.2) + 4 (one-half (34.2) (28.4)). What error d

madam [21]

Answer:

B. He used the wrong expression to represent the area of the base of the pyramid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for pyramid

$Area = (33.2)(34.2) + 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.4 * 28.4$

Required

Vikram's error

The surface area of a square pyramid is:

$Area = Base\ Area + 4 * Area \triangle$

Where

$Base\ Area = Length * Length$

$Base\ Area = 34.2 * 34.2$

$4 * Area \triangle = 4 * \frac{1}{2} * Base * Height$

$4 * Area \triangle = 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.2 * 28.4$

So:

$Area = Base\ Area + 4 * Area \triangle$

$Area = 34.2 * 34.2 + 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.2 * 28.4$

By comparing the calculated expression with

$Area = (33.2)(34.2) + 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.4 * 28.4$

Option (b) is correct
