now.. if you notice, the exponent for the 1st term, is dropping on each term subsequently, start with highest, 9 in this case, and drops drops drops, till on the last term, will be 0
the exponent for the second term, starts off at 0, and goes up up and up on each term
that part is simple... now, the coefficient for them
the first one will have a coefficient of 1, so we can take a closer look at the 2nd instead
the coefficient for the second is 1* 9/ 1
(1) the coefficient of the current term, (9) the exponent of the 1st term, and (1) the exponent of the 2nd term on the next term
for example, how did we get 84 for the 4th term? (36 * 7) / 3 = 84
and so on for all subsequent terms

(7^x)^4 is equal to 7^(4x).
7^2 * 7^3 is equal to 7^(2+3) which is equal to 7^5.
7^5 / 7^(3x) is equal to 7^(5 - 3x).
you wind up with 7^(4x) is equal to 7^(5 - 3x)
this is true if and only if 4x = 5 - 3x.
Answer:
1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
300/6= 50
in one hour he drives 50 miles
so the answer is 1 hour
