Write an expression for “the quotient for y and 8”

jonny [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your answer is y/8. It's a little unusually worded. If this is not correct, please leave a note.

The way I have answered it, I would word it as "What is the quotient of y divided by 8."

Tbh this question confusing the **** outta me

trapecia [35]

Answer:

$8^6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Powers are defined as the number of times you multiply a number by itself. For example, 2 to the 3rd power is 2 multiplied by itself 3 times. 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. You also know that if you multiply two powers of the same base, you add the exponent, and if you raise a power to a different power, you multiply the exponents.

e.g:

$2^2\cdot2^2=2^{2+2}=2^4\\(2^2)^3=2^{2\cdot3}=2^6$

Now, we are asking to use grouping to write 2 to the power 18 as a power of 8. We know 2 to the power 8 is 2 to the power 3, so we have the following equation:

$2^{18}=(2^3)^x$

We know this is now 2 to the power 3x = 2 the power 18, and therefore x = 6, because 3 times 6 is equal to 18. Now, we can just simplify 2 to the third as 8 and we now have:

$8^6$

In 3 years, Dianna will be 4 times as old as she was 33 years ago. How old is Dianna now?

Sergeu [11.5K]

Given that In 3 years, Dianna will be 4 times as old as she was 33 years ago, her present age is 45.

<h3>How old is Dianna now?</h3>

Given that, in 3 years, Dianna will be 4 times as old as she was 33 years ago.

Let x represent the age of Dianna presently.

Dianna's age in 3 years time will be: x + 3

Dianna's age 33 years ago is: x - 33

Since in 3 years, she will be 4 times as old as she was 33 years ago.

x + 3 = 4( x - 33 )

We solve for x

x + 3 = 4x - 132

3 + 132 = 4x - x

135 = 3x

x = 135/3

x = 45

Given that In 3 years, Dianna will be 4 times as old as she was 33 years ago, her present age is 45.

One leg of a right triangular piece of land has a length of 24 yards. They hypotenuse has a length of 74 yards. The other leg ha

anastassius [24]

Solutions

To solve this problem we have to use the Pythagorean theorem. You can only use the Pythagorean theorem in Right Triangles. The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse". C² is the longest side so it is the hypotenuse . To calculate c² we have to do α² + β² = c².

Given

One leg of a right triangular piece of land has a length of 24 yards. They hypotenuse has a length of 74 yards. The other leg has a length of 10x yards.

First leg (24 yards) would be α

Second leg would be β

Hypotenuse (74 yards) would be c

Now we have points α β c.

a² (24) + β² ( x ) = c² (74)

Calculations

c² = α² + β²

74² = 24²+ β²

<span>5476 = 576 + </span>β²

5476 - 576 = β²
<span> </span>
<span>4900 = </span>β²

→√4900
<span> </span>
β<span> = 70 yards
</span>
<span>70 = 10x
</span>
<span>x = 70</span>÷<span>10 = 7 yards
</span>
The second leg = 7 yards
