What is the answer to this inequality -45 <-9k

Answer: 5 > k

Step-by-step explanation: When you're asked to solve an inequality like -45 < -9k, your goal should be the same as it was when solving equations which is to get <em>k</em> by itself on one side.

In this problem since <em>k</em> is being multiplied by -9 on the right side of the inequality, to get <em>k</em> by itself, we divide both sides by -9 but here is the rule you have to watch out for when solving inequalities.

When you divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must switch the direction of the inequality sign. So this less than in our original problem becomes greater than in our second step. I would recommend switching it as soon as possible so you don't forget.

Let's rewrite our original inequality.

-45 < -9k

On the right side, the -9's cancel and we're left with <em>k</em> and on the right side, -45 divided -9 is -5. So we have <em>5 </em><em>></em><em> k</em>.

What is the answer to this question please explain (picture included)
Yakvenalex [24]
Easy peasy
just use PEMDAS and some exonential laws

(x^{m})(x^{n})=x^{m+n}
(x^{m})^{n}=x^{mn}
(ab)^{m}=(a^{m})(b^{m})

also another is x^{\frac{m}{n}}=\sqrt[n]{x^{m}}

so

[3(2a)^{\frac{3}{2}}]^{2}=
(3^{2})((2a)^{\frac{3}{2}}^{2})=
(9)((2a)^{\frac{3}{2}}^{2})=
(9)((2a)^{\frac{6}{2})=
(9)((2a)^{3}) =
(9)(8a^{3}) =
72a^{3}
