Answer:

Approximately 4.67 feet of fabric is required for one pillow case.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of pillow cases to be made by Jenny = 3

Amount of fabric Jenny has = 14 feet

Each pillow case use same amount of fabric.

Amount of fabric used to make 1 pillow case =

$=\dfrac{\text{Amount of fabric}}{\text{Number of pillow cases}}\\\\=\dfrac{14\text{ feet}}{3}\\\\\approx 4.67\text{ feet}$

Thus, approximately 4.67 feet of fabric is required for one pillow case.

What is the quotient of -8x∧6 over 4x∧-3 ??

Allushta [10]

Answer:

$-2x^{9}$ is the quotient

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two expression $-8x^6$ and $4x^{-3}$

We need to find quotient of this expression using exponent law.

First we write as quotient form,

$\Rightarrow -\dfrac{8x^6}{4x^{-3}}$

$\Rightarrow -2x^{6-(-3)}$ $(x^m\div x^n=x^{m-n})$

$\Rightarrow -2x^{6+3}$

$\Rightarrow -2x^{9}$

Thus, $-2x^{9}$ is the quotient of $-8x^6$ and $4x^{-3}$ .

Please teach me on how to answer this question. (addmath question)

arsen [322]

We know that $\overline{x}=8$ so:

$\overline{x}=8\\\\\\\dfrac{\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,x_k}{7}=8\qquad|\cdot7\\\\\\ \boxed{\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,x_k=56}$

We want to calculate:

$\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,\big(2x_k-3\big)^2=\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,\big(4x_k^2-12x_k+9\big)=\\\\\\=\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,4x_k^2-\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,\big12x_k+\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,9=4\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,x_k^2-12\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,x_k+\sum\limits_{k=1}^7\,9=\\\\\\=4\cdot672-12\cdot56+7\cdot9=2688-672+63=\boxed{2079}$

Determine whether each expression is equivalent to 49^2t – 0.5.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

None of the expression are equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Required

Find its equivalents

We start by expanding the given expression

$49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Expand 49

$(7^2)^{(2t - 0.5)}$

$7^2^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Using laws of indices: $(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

$7^{(2*2t - 2*0.5)}$

$7^{(4t - 1)}$

This implies that; each of the following options A,B and C must be equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$ or alternatively, $7^{(4t - 1)}$

A. $\frac{7^{2t}}{49^{0.5}}$

Using law of indices which states;

$a^{mn} = (a^m)^n$

Applying this law to the numerator; we have

$\frac{(7^{2})^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$

Expand expression in bracket

$\frac{(7 * 7)^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$

$\frac{49^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$

Also; Using law of indices which states;

$\frac{a^{m}}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$

$\frac{49^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$ becomes

$49^{t-0.5}}$

This is not equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

B. $\frac{49^{2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

Expand numerator

$\frac{(7*7)^{2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

$\frac{(7^2)^{2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

Using law of indices which states;

$(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

Applying this law to the numerator; we have

$\frac{7^{2*2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

$\frac{7^{4t}}{7^{0.5}}$

Also; Using law of indices which states;

$\frac{a^{m}}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$

$\frac{7^{4t}}{7^{0.5}}$ = $7^{4t - 0.5}$

This is also not equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

C. $7^{2t}\ *\ 49^{0.5}$

$7^{2t}\ *\ (7^2)^{0.5}$

$7^{2t}\ *\ 7^{2*0.5}$

$7^{2t}\ *\ 7^{1}$

Using law of indices which states;

$a^m*a^n = a^{m+n}$

$7^{2t+ 1}$

This is also not equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$
