Answer:

  -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is found by dividing the second number by the first:

  -52/104 = -1/2

You can verify that this is a "common" ratio by doing the same with successive pairs of numbers:

  26/-52 = -1/2

  -13/26 = -1/2

The common ratio is -1/2.

Write as a numerical expression: “ Six less than twice a number is four “
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

2x - 6 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let's assume the number is x

Then, twice the number is 2 times x = 2x

6 less than twice the number is four

2x - 6 = 4

2x - 6 + 6 = 4 + 6

2x = 10

2x/2 = 10/2

x = 5

Simplify completely. (w^15/w^5)^4 <br> HELP PLEASE
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

w^{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify recall exponent rules:

1. An exponent is only a short cut for multiplication. It simplifies how we write the expression.

2. When we multiply terms with the same bases, we add exponents.

3. When we divide terms with the same bases, we subtract exponents.

4. When we have a base to the exponent of 0, it is 1.

5. A negative exponent creates a fraction.

6. When we raise an exponent to an exponent, we multiply exponents.

7. When we have exponents with parenthesis, we apply it to everything in the parenthesis.

We will use these rules to simplify.

Use rule #3 to simplify inside the parenthesis first.

\frac{w^{15}}{w^5}  = w^{10}

Now simplify the exponent of 4 using rule 6.

(w^{10})^4 = w^{40}

Read the word problem below. Jill had $90. She bought a skirt that normally costs $42 but was on sale for half price. She also b
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

What was the regular price of the T-shirt?

  • $18

What question is being asked in this word problem?

  • what is the regular cost of the t-shirt purchased by Jill.

What is the regular price of the skirt?

  • $42

How much money does Jill have left?

  • without considering sales tax, Jill has $90 - $31 = $59 left.
  • If I use the sales tax from where I live, the sales tax = $1.86, so the money that Jill will have left = $59 - $1.86 = $57.14

How much does the T-shirt normally cost?

  • $18 (same as question 1)

What is the amount Jill pays in sales tax?

  • since you do not include the sales tax % in the question, I will simply use the sales tax from where I live = $31 x 6% = $1.86

Step-by-step explanation:

skirt $21

t-shirt = p - $8

before sales tax, total cost was $31

$21 + p - $8 = $31

p = $18
