Which could be the first step in simplifying this expression? Check all that apply. (x cubed x Superscript negative 6 Baseline)

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

$(x^{-3} )^{2}$

$x^6 x^{-12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x^{3} x^{-6} )^{2}$ is the expression given to be solved.

First of all let us have a look at 3 formulas:

$1.\ p^a \times p^b = p^{(a+b)}\\2.\ (p^a \times q^b)^c = (p^{a})^c \times (q^{b})^c\\3.\ (p^a)^b = p^{a\times b}$

Both the formula can be applied to the expression( $(x^{3} x^{-6} )^{2}$ ) during the first step while solving it.

Applying formula (1):

$(x^{3} x^{-6} )^{2}$

Comparing the terms of $(x^{3} x^{-6} )$ with $p^a \times p^b$

$p=x, a =3, b=-6$

$\Rightarrow x^{3+(-6)}\\\Rightarrow x^{3-6}\\\Rightarrow x^{-3}$

So, $(x^{3} x^{-6} )^{2}$ is reduced to $(x^{-3} )^{2}$

Applying formula (2):

Comparing the terms of $(x^{3} x^{-6} )^{2}$ with $(p^a \times q^b)^c$

$p=q=x, a =3, b=-6, c=2$

$\Rightarrow (x^{3})^2\times (x^{-6})^2\\\text{Applying Formula (3)}\\x^6 x^{-12}$

So, $(x^{3} x^{-6} )^{2}$ is reduced to $x^6 x^{-12}$ .

So, the answers can be:

$(x^{-3} )^{2}$

$x^6 x^{-12}$

Mario sells insurance. His goal is to sell 3 types of insurance to each family on a block. He also wants to sell more than 27 po

qaws [65]

When we divide both sides of the inequality,

3x > 27 by 3, 3x(3) > 27(3)

we get x > 9, as the simplified form of the inequality.

Thus, giving us the answer of:

x > 9

The perimeter of the rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of the triangle is 12 meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangl

lianna [129]

Answer:

Length:8 m

Width:3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

If the perimeter of a rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of a right triangle is 12 meters (the sides of the triangle are half the length of the rectangle, the width of the rectangle, and the hypotenuse is 5 meters). How do you solve for L and W, the dimensions of the rectangle.

step 1

Perimeter of rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$
