The answer would be negative 2
Answer: By the 8th week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time that matteo and luca have the same amount of money be represented by x.
The information given in the question can be formed into an equation as:
400 - 10x = 200 + 15x
Collect like terms
400 - 200 = 15x + 10x
200 = 25x
x = 200/25
x = 8
Matteo and Luca will have the same amount of money by the 8th week.
To obtain the square root of 16x^36, the coefficient portion (16) will not present any problems since 16 is a perfect square. However, for a variable with an exponent, the exponent is to be multiplied by 1/2 since the square root symbol is equal to raising the term inside to the power of 1/2. This is shown below:
sqrt (16 x^36) = 4 * x^36(1/2) = 4 * x^18
Therefore, the correct answer is 4x^18.
