4 0

Answer:

8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount in the glass after m minutes can be described by ...

a = 4 + 3/2m

We want to find m when a=16, so ...

16 = 4 + 3/2m

12 = 3/2m . . . . . subtract 4

8 = m . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/3

It will take 8 minutes to fill the glass.

What is the simplified form of StartRoot StartFraction 72 x Superscript 16 Baseline Over 50 x Superscript 36 Baseline EndFractio

aalyn [17]

Answer:

StartFraction 6 Over 5 x Superscript 10 Baseline EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently you want to simplify ...

$\sqrt{\dfrac{72x^{16}}{50x^{36}}}$

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

1/a^b = a^-b

(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

So the expression simplifies as ...

$\sqrt{\dfrac{72x^{16}}{50x^{36}}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{36}{25x^{36-16}}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{36}{25x^{20}}}\\\\\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{6}{5x^{10}}\right)^2}=\boxed{\dfrac{6}{5x^{10}}}$
