The answer is \frac{x^{4/3}y^{3}}{3}.

The fraction is: \frac{4xy^{-2} }{12 x^{-1/3} y^{-5}  }
Let's rewrite it: \frac{4xy^{-2} }{12 x^{-1/3} y^{-5} }=\frac{4 }{12 }*\frac{x }{ x^{-1/3} }*\frac{y^{-2} }{ y^{-5} }

Since \frac{x^{a} }{x^{b}} =x^{a-b},
then:
*** \frac{x}{ x^{-1/3} }= x^{1-(-1/3)} = x^{3/3+1/3} = x^{4/3}
*** \frac{y^{-2} }{ y^{-5} }=  y^{-2-(-5)} = y^{-2+5} = y^{3}
______
\frac{4 }{12 }*\frac{x }{ x^{-1/3} }*\frac{y^{-2} }{ y^{-5} }= \frac{1*4}{3*4}* x^{4/3}*y^{3}= \frac{1}{3} * x^{4/3}*y^{3}= \frac{x^{4/3}y^{3}}{3}

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

First Olympic held in year 1896.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Olympiad held in Rio = XXXI = 31st

Difference of years in two consecutive Olympiads = 4 years

Number of years spent in 31 Olympiads can be calculated by,

Number of years spent = (n - 1)d

Here n = number of Olympiads held

d = difference between two consecutive Olympiads

Number of years spent till 31st Olympiads = (31 - 1)×4

                                                                      = 120 years

Therefore, 1st Olympiad held in the year = 2016 - 120

                                                                   = 1896

A container shaped as a rectangular prism can hold 840 wooden cube blocks with edge lengths of
asambeis [7]
First, fidn the volume of the little cubes that the rectangular prism can hold instide of itself. The formula for volume is length x width x height. This means you have to multiply 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2. 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8. Now, since the rectangular prism can hold 840 of these cubes, you need to multiply each cube's volume, 1/8, by 840. 1/8 x 840 = 105.

Your answer should be: 105 ft.^3
