(2*3*1)=6

135/6=22.5

1st = 22.5 ft

2nd= 45 ft

3rd = 67.5 ft

add it up and you get 135 feet

Solve system by elimination <br> 8x-8y=-16<br> -8x-7y=-29

Gnesinka [82]

Add these together.
You get -15y=-45
So y=3

Now plug in to first equation.
8x-8(3)=-16
8x-24=-16
8x=8 so x=1

Check both values in second equation.
-8(1)-7(3)=
-8-21=-29

It works...so x=1, y=3

What is 5p to the -7 power/20p to the 2 power simplified

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

p^(-9) or 1/p^9

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have:

(5p)^(-7)

----------------

(20p)^2

Let's temporarily remove the coefficient 5/20 and reduce it to 1/4.

then we have:

1 1 1

(1/4) ------------- = (1/4) -------------- = ------------
