The rule for quotients of similar bases with different exponents is:
(a^c)/(a^b)=a^(c-b) in this case:
15^18/(15^3)=15^15
The answer would be 400$. This is because 40 x 10 = 400.
Answer:
8,000 in the 8% account
20,000 in the 9% account.
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 28000
0.08 x + 0.09 y = 2440
0.08 x + 0.09 (28000 − x) = 2440
0.08 x + 2520 − 0.09 x = 2440
80 = 0.01 x
x = 8000
y = 20000
