$2.00 in quarters is 8 quarters, since 1 quarter is 25 cents.
Out of those 8 quarters, only 3 are state quarters.
That means 5 are not state quarters.
So there is a 5/8 chance that the first quarter he takes out is not a state quarter.
If it is not, then there are 3 state quarters and 7 total quarters left, which means a 4/7 chance that the second quarter is not a state quarter.
To find the probability of both of these quarters not being state quarters, multiply the probabilities by each other.
4/7 • 5/8 = 20/56
Now simplify:
20/56 = 10/28 = 5/14
5/14 is in simplest form, so it is the answer.
So the answer is D. 5/14.

Simplify 3(2m^3n^-2)^4
Effectus [21]

Answer:

(48 m^12)/n^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

3 ((2 m^3)/(n^2))^4

Multiply each exponent in (2 m^3)/(n^2) by 4:

3×2^4 m^(4×3) n^(-2×4)

4 (-2) = -8:

3×2^4 m^(4×3) n^(-8)

4×3 = 12:

(3×2^4 m^12)/(n^8)

2^4 = (2^2)^2:

(3 (2^2)^2 m^12)/(n^8)

2^2 = 4:

(3×4^2 m^12)/(n^8)

4^2 = 16:

(3×16 m^12)/(n^8)

3×16 = 48:

Answer: (48 m^12)/n^8
