<span>The answer is (x</span>¹⁰<span>y</span>¹⁴<span>)/729.

Explanation:
We can begin simplifying inside the innermost parentheses using the properties of exponents. The power of a power property says when you raise a power to a power, you multiply the exponents. This gives us

[(3</span>³<span>x</span>³<span>y</span>⁻¹⁵<span>)/(x</span>⁸<span>y</span>⁻⁸<span>)]</span>⁻²<span>.

Negative exponents tell us to "flip" sides of the fraction, so within the parentheses we have
[(3</span>³<span>x</span>³<span>y</span>⁸<span>)/(x</span>⁸<span>y</span>¹⁵<span>)]</span>⁻²<span>.

Using the quotient property, we subtract exponents when dividing powers, which gives us
(3</span>³<span>/x</span>⁵<span>y</span>⁷<span>)</span>⁻²<span>.

Evaluating 3</span>³<span>, we have
(27/x</span>⁵<span>y</span>⁷<span>)</span>⁻²<span>.

Using the power of a power property again, we have
27</span>⁻²<span>/x</span>⁻¹⁰<span>y</span>⁻¹⁴<span>.

Flipping the negative exponents again gives us x</span>¹⁰<span>y</span>¹⁴<span>/729.</span>

Answer with explanation:

The given expression is

=[\frac{(3 x y^{-5})^3}{(x^{-2}y^2)^{-4}}]^{-2}\\\\=\frac{(3 x y^{-5})^{-6}}{(x^{-2}y^2)^{8}}\\\\=\frac{(3^{-6} x^{-6} y^{30})}{(x^{-16}y^{16})}\\\\=3^{-6}\times x^{-6+16}\times y^{30-16}\\\\=\frac{x^{10}\times y^{14}}{729}

Used the following law of indices

1.[\frac{x}{y}]^m=\frac{x^m}{y^m}\\\\ 2. \frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}\\\\ 3. \frac{1}{x^{-m}}=x^m

The given expression is equivalent to

\frac{x^{10}\times y^{14}}{729}

prisoha [69]

Answer:

The distance between the two train stations is 1728 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the bus = 54 km/h

The speed of the truck = 48 km/h

When the bus and truck meet again, the distance covered by the bus = 216 km more than he distance traveled by the truck

Let the distance between the two train stations = x

Let the location where they first meet be y from station A we have;

The location where they meet again = y - 216 km

Therefore, we have;

Location where they

The time for the truck and the bus to meet again = t

Therefore, 54 × t - 48 × t = 216 km

6·t = 216 km

t = 36 hours

Therefore, the time for the bus to travel x + 216 km = 36 hours

54 × 36 = 1944 = x + 216

x = 1944 - 216 = 1728 km

The distance between the two train stations = 1728 km.

Answer:

11,880π in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder = π r^2 h

Large Cylinder V = π * 15^2*40 =  9,000π   in^3

Small Cylinder V = π * 12^2 * (60-40) =  2880π in^3

Adding: the total volume of the model = 11,880π in^3
