Answer:

a⁻³⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

((a²)⁻²)⁵ ÷ (a⁴a)³

((a²)⁻²)⁵ ÷ (a⁴a¹)³

= (a⁻⁴)⁵ ÷ (a⁵)³

= a⁻²⁰ ÷ a¹⁵

= a⁻²⁰⁻¹⁵

= a⁻³⁵

Exponent rules:

Multiplying two numbers with same base: add exponents

Dividing two numbers with same base: subtract exponents

Number with exponent raised to another exponent: multiply the exponents together

Ramiro earns $20 per hour during the week and $30 per hour for overtime on the weekends. One week Ramiro earned a total of $650.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Week=25 Hours

Weekend= 5 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to use the info they gave us and create two equations. Firstly we know how much he gets paid per hour during the week (x) and how much he gets paid on the weekend (y).

$20x+$30y=$650

We get this because we know the combined rates he is paid times the hours should add up to the amount he earned.

The next equation will be made off of the information that he worked 5 times as many hours during the week as on the weekend. This tells us that we will take the weekend hours (y) and multiply them by 5 in order to get the week hours (x).

x=5y      Now, since we have one variable by itself, we can plug it in for x in the first equation.

20(5y)+30y=650    Our first step here is to distribute the 20 to the 5y in order to eliminate the parenthesis.

100y+30y=650    Next add the like terms together (100y+30y).

Now all we have to do to find y is divide by 130 on both sides to get y alone.

130y=650  

________

130     130

y=5             Now to solve for x we just plug our y value into one of the equations above. I'm going to use the second equation.

x=5(5)

x=25

What is the vertex of the graph of the function f(x) = x² + 8x - 2?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

(4, -18)

Step-by-step explanation:

First  Use this formula for the x -axis  -b/2a  

-8/2(1) is -4

Then plug in -4 to the equation

(-4)^2+8(-4)-2 = -18

The sum of two numbers is 240. If one number is twice the other number, find the two numbers.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.

----------

Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"

EQUATION:

x + 2x-6 = 240

3x= 246

x = 82 (smaller)

2x-6 = 158 (larger)

Given right triangle JKL what is the value of cos(L)?
NemiM [27]
For the right triangle to be given in name of three letters such as this, the right angle is most likely to be in the center, in this case letter K. To determine the common trigonometric properties of a certain angle we may use of the mnemonics SOH - CAH - TOA. 
                          sin angle = opposite side / hypotenuse
                          cosine angle = adjacent side / hypotenuse
                          tangent angle = opposite side / adjacent side

If we let small letter j, k, and l be the sides opposite to angles J, K, and L, respectively. Then, the cos (L) will be,
                                       cos (L) = j/k
