2 1/4 miles => 1 week

1 mile => 1 ÷ 9/4

( 9/4 is an improper fraction of 2 1/4 )

12 1/2 miles => ( 1 ÷ 9/4 ) × 25/2

= 50/9

= 5 5/9 weeks

( 25/2 is an improper fraction of 12 1/2 )

Therefore, it will take 5 5/9 weeks for the company to replace the stretch of road.

( you can round it off to 6 weeks if the qn specify to give to the nearest whole number )

Write the expression as a square of a monomial. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> a 81x^4
poizon [28]

Answer:

(9x²)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 81x⁴, to write the expression as a square of a monomial, first we will assign a variable to the expression.

y = 81x⁴

Then we take the square root of both sides of the expression

√y = √81x⁴

y^½ = √81 × √x⁴

y^½ = 9x²

Squaring both sides of the resulting equation to get y back

(y^½)² = (9x²)²

y = (9x²)²

The expression as a square of a monomial is (9x²)²
