Answer:

The old tower has 150 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of steps in the old tower be m

Mathematically, time = distance/speed

In this case, the distance is the number of steps while the speed is the rate of climbing or descending

For climbing, time spent = m/3

For descending time spent = m/2

Since it took her 25 longer when descending;

This means that;

m/2 - m/3 = 25

(3m-2m)/6 = 25

m/6 = 25

m = 6 * 25

m = 150 steps

Why are both of the answers to the question correct?
guajiro [1.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have an exponent, it is the same as multiplying that number to itself that many times. For an example:

2^2 is the same thing as 2*2. Both of them equal 4. So the question gave you the answer of 2*2*2*2.... twelve times, and 2^12 which are the same thing, just one is written out more.

Another example:

3^4= 3*3*3*3= 81

When you write a numerical expression how can you show which operation to do it first?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

parentheses come first

Step-by-step explanation:

Parentheses are symbols that group things together. This becomes very important in numerical expressions, because operations inside parentheses are always completed first when evaluating the expression. Let's review the order of operations. You can see that, according to the order of operations, parentheses come first.
