Answer:
The answer is the last one (32x^7y^15)
You can bring x to the second power (x^2) because (x) is basically x^1. This is a basic exponent rule. (x^m)^n = x^m times n.
Then you can apply this rule to (2xy^3)^5. First you bring two to the fifth power and get 32. Then you bring x^5 according to the rule. Then you bring y^15, also because of the rule.
Now you have:
x^2 times 32x^5y^15
Now you just multiply the like terms together (x^2 and x^5)
When you multiply two exponents with the same base, you add the exponents together: a^n times a^m = a^n+m.
So you end up with 32x^7y^15
Answer:2/8
Step-by-step explanation:
do top and bottom multiply
Answer:
#15) B. 30 mn^5
#17) B. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>#15:</h2>
The area of a trapezoid is given in the formula: 1/2(a + b) * h, where a is the length of the top of the trapezoid, b is the length of the bottom of the trapezoid, and h is the height of the trapezoid.
All of these measurements are given so all that you need to do is to substitute these values into the formula.
Substitute 3 for a, 9 for b, and 5 for h.
Solve inside the parentheses first. Add 3 and 9.
Multiply 12 and 1/2 together.
Multiply 6 and 5.
We need to figure out if the area is to the 5th or 6th power. When we added 3 and 9 together, we combined like terms so the exponent stayed to the 3rd power.
After multiplying this ^3 by the 5mn^2, the exponent becomes to the 5th power because you add exponents when multiplying.
Therefore the final answer is B. 30 mn^5.
<h2>#17:</h2>
When going down from 32 to 8 to 2, you can see that each number is being divided by 4.
32 / 4 = 8...
8 / 4 = 2...
So to find the next number in this sequence you would divide 2 by 4.
The answer is B. 1/2.
Answer:
Car loans, amortized monthly, and retailer installment loans, also calculated monthly, are examples of simple interest; as the loan balance dips with each monthly payment, so does the interest. Certificates of deposit (CDs) pay a specific amount in interest on a set date, representing simple interest
Multply both sides of the equation by 7.

When the variable is in the numerator of a proportion like this, you can solve it by multiplying by that denominator. That multiplication cancels the denominator and gives you the value of the variable.
In general, you multiply by the reciprocal of the coefficient of x. When that coefficient is 1/7, you multiply by 7/1. Of course, you know that 7/7 = 1 and that x/1 = x.
