Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
the length of a board/ the length of a picture is not equal to the width of a board/ the width of a picture
or
14/10 cm is not equal to 11/8 cm
so, it isn't mathematically similar
True because the ratios are a comparison of two or more numbers . I think
let x be how much longer she can run the race and still beat her previous time
55(min) + x(min) < 1(hr) + 10(min)
55(min) + x(min) < 60(min) + 10(min)
55 + x < 60 + 10
x < 60 + 10 - 55
x < 15(min)
Answer:
Raising something to a negative exponent is just taking the reciprocal of the amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that you wanted to know what 
is.
To find it, you would take the reciprocal of the x amount. So becomes 
.
This works because of the nature of exponents. Exponents represent the number of times you are multiplying a value by itself. So 
would be equal to a · a · a. To increase the exponent, you increase the number of times the value is multiplied by itself: To increase to 
, you would have to multiply a with two more times (a · a · a · a · a). To decrease the exponent, you must divide the value by itself. So to decrease to 
, you would have to divide by a 3 times.
If the exponent is 0, the value is equal to 1. But you can still decrease the exponent into negative numbers. You just divide 1 by a the desired amount of times: 
means that you are dividing 1 by a 3 times.
Hope this helps.
