We call two numbers a and b, notice a>b
<span>The sum of two numbers is 110: a+b=110
</span><span>The larger number is 2 less than 7 times the smaller: a=7b-2
And by replacing a=7b-2 we have an equation: 7b-2+b=110
or 8b=110+2, and 8b=112, that means b=112:8= 14

We have two numbers: 14 and 96</span>

Pls help Describe how to find the product of the two terms 3x^2y^5 and 4x^3y^7
zvonat [6]

Answer:

12 x^5y^12

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2y^5 * 4x^3y^7

Multiply the constants

3*4 = 12

Multiply the x terms

x^2 * x^3

We know a^b* a^c = a^(b+c)

x^(2+3) = x^5

Multiply the y terms

y^6 * y^7 = y&(5+7) = y^12

Put them back together

12 x^5y^12
