For number 9, you know that it makes 40 copies every five minutes. All you have to do is divide 40 by 5.
40 ÷ 5 = 8
It makes 8 copies every minute.
Your chart can also help you check your answer. It says that it makes 96 copies every 12 minutes and it makes 104 copies every 13 minutes. So multiply 8 by 12 to check it and 8 by 13.
8 • 12 = 96
8 • 13 = 104
Since those answers match up with the chart, it must be correct.
The photocopier makes 8 copies every minute. Hope that helps!
The equation seems to be
1
-------- = 5 ^ (x + 4)
25
In that case, this is the solution, stept by step:
1) factor 25: 25 = 5^2
1
=> ----------- = 5^(x + 4)
5^2
2) invert 5^2
=> 5^(-2) = 5^(x+4)
3) Given that the bases are equal, the exponents also have to be equal:
=> - 2 = x + 4
3) transpose +4:
=> - 2 - 4 = x
=> x = - 6
Answer: - 6
