Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(4a + 6b) = 3*4a + 3*6b = 12a + 18b

-2(7a + b) = -2*7a + (-2)*b = -14a - 2b

\frac{5[3(4a+6b)-2(7a+b)-b]}{20}=\frac{5[12a+18b-14a-2b-b]}{20}\\\\ \frac{5[-2a+15b]}{20}=\frac{15b-2a}{4}

x =1/4

X = 1/4 ?

since multiplying fractions is straight across,

1/4 * (15b -2a) would result in the simplification you got.

One terameter equals 1012 meters. One micrometer equals 10 meter.
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

<h2>a)  10⁶metres</h2><h2>b) 10¹⁸metres</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given One terameter equals 10¹² meters. One micrometer equals 10⁻⁶ meter, one nanometer equals 10⁻⁹meter;

a) The product of one terameter and one micrometer will be expressed as;

10¹²  * 10⁻⁶

Since the both have the same base, we will add their power according to one of the law in indices as shown

10¹²  * 10⁻⁶ = 10⁻⁶⁺¹²

= 10⁶metres

b) The quotient of one terameter and one micrometer can be gotten by taking their ratio as shown below;

Note that when taking the quotient, the power are subtracted

= \frac{10^{12} }{10^{-6} } \\= 10^{12-(-6)}  \\= 10^{12+6} \\= 10^{18}metres
