Answer:

The answer to your question is:

first piece 44/3

second piece 35/3

third piece 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we define the variable, it will be "x", and will be for the second piece.

Second piece = x

First piece = x + 3 (from the problem)

Third piece = x - 10 (from the problem)

We sum all

x + 3 + x + x -10 = 28

3x - 7 = 28 simplify like terms

3x = 28 + 7

3x = 35

Second piece x = 35/3

First piece = x + 3 = 35/3 +3 = (35 + 9)/3 = 44/3

Third piece = 35/3 - 10 = (35-10)/3 = 5/3

Simplify each exponential expression to the form x^n where n is positive.

vaieri [72.5K]

The expression is:

$\sqrt{\frac{x^{3}x^{8}}{x^{6}}}$

We will use following steps to simplify it:

Step 1:

Use product property of exponents:

$x^{a}*x^{b}=x^{a+b}$

$x^{3}*x^{8}=x^{8+3}$

$x^{3}*x^{8}=x^{11}$

That gives us the expression:

$\sqrt{\frac{x^{11}}{x^{6}}}$

Step 2:

Use division property of exponents:

$\frac{x^{a}}{x^{b}}=x^{a-b}$

$\frac{x^{11}}{x^{6}}=x^{11-6}$

$\frac{x^{11}}{x^{6}}=x^{5}$

This simplifies the expression:

$\sqrt{x^{5}}$

Step 3:

Writing the square root as power 1/2:

$\sqrt{x^{5}}=x^{5*\frac{1}{2} }$

$\sqrt{x^{5}}=x^{\frac{5}{2} }$

Answer:

The final simplified form in x^n form is :

$x^{\frac{5}{2} }$
