We’ll subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator, keeping the base the same. Cant be simplified, because the base of the expression in the numerator is y and the base of the expression in the denominator is x.
This is an arithmetic series, so we know, that:
Sum = (First term + Last term) * Number of terms /2
Here we have:
First term = 33
Last term = 104
Number of terms = 104 - 33 + 1 = 72
and
Answer:
If you dump all of them into one box then you know that one is the mixed

Multiply 4.8 into (20/3), and multiply 16/9 with (1.2b)

Multiply 9 on both sides
19.2b = 32(9)
19.2b = 288 Divide 19.2 on both sides
b = 15
