Step-by-step explanation:

The expressions are not properly written

Given

RS = 4x – 9

ST = 19

RT = 8x – 14

Based on the given parameters, the addition postulate below is true

RS+ST = RT

Substitute

4x-9+19 = 8x-14

collect like terms

4x-8x = -14-19+9

-4x = -33+9

-4x = -24

x = -24/-4

x = 6

Get RS:

RS = 4x-9

RS = 4(6)- 9

RS = 24-9

RS = 15

Get RT:

RT = 8x - 14

RT = 8(6)-14

RT = 48-14

RT = 34

H^-16/h^x=1/h^24 can someone help me please

Basile [38]

Given:

Consider the equation is

$\dfrac{h^{16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}$

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

$\dfrac{h^{-16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}$

Using properties of exponents, we get

$h^{-16-x}=h^{-24}$ $[\because \dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n},a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]$

On comparing both sides, we get

$-16-x=-24$

Add 16 on both sides.

$-x=-24+16$

$-x=-8$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$x=8$

Therefore, the value of x is 8.

kenny6666 [7]

20 cookies because y = 8 + 6(x)

X = 2 since half of the cookies left was 6

6(2) = 12 and 12+8 = 20

So in total she baked 20cookies
