It refers to the number of times a number is being multiplied by itself ... Ex: two to the fourth power
4 would be the exponent
The answer to this question would be x=a2y2
Answer: answer will be 72.50. To find the mean you just add up all the numbers and divide by how many numbers are there. 870.02/12=72.501666667.
Hello! Your answer is B, 10 minutes.
Say the x = minutes taken to do the job. You can set up an equation like this to solve this.

This is representative of the situation. The fractions each represent <u>how much each person does in a minute</u>, and when they're multiplied by x, that's <u>how much of the project they get done</u> based off of the minutes they work together on the job. Add the two together, and you get <u>how much of the project is finished in x amount of time</u>. Set it equal to 1, as you are looking for 100% completion.
Once you have this equation, find a common denominator, add, and solve.





Therefore, it will take them 10 minutes to do the job together.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
(x/2) + 15 = 5 + 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the steps in the equation. X is your number. First you halve it, then you add 15. Next, set it equal to the other side. The second side is 5 + (because it is the sum) and 3x (the product of 3 and x means multiply them)
