Check the picture below.
so, hmmm notice, since i² = -1 and i⁴ = 1, whenever the exponent is only divisible by 2, the value will be -1, and whenever the exponent is divisible by 4, we end up with a +1, so every subsequent even exponent is simply cancelling the previous value, if we take that to the even value of 100, which has 50 pairs of those, we end up with, yeap, you guessed it, 0.

Given Information
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people = 165
Adult = $6
Child = $2
Total collected = $618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assumptions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of adults and y be the number of children
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equations
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people
x + y = 165
Total amount collected
6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: The two equations are x + y = 165 and 6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The question is not asking for it but if you need to solve the equation to find the answer to x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present the two equations and solve for x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 165 ------------------------- (eqn 1)
6x + 2y = 618 ------------------------- (eqn 2)
(eqn 1) :
x + y = 165
x = 165 - y ------------------------- substitute into (eqn 2)
6(165 - y) + 2y = 618
990 - 6y + 2y = 618
4y = 990 - 618
4y = 372
y = 93 ------------------------- substitute into (eqn 1)
x + y = 165
x + 93 = 165
x = 165 - 93
x = 72
x = 72 and y = 93
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: 72 adults and 93 children

To find the original cost, divide the price he sold it for by the percentage:
5000 / 0.60 = 8,333.33
He bought the car for $8,333.33
Answer:
$3.90
Step-by-step explanation:
78 cents/lb * 5 lb = (78*5) cents = 390 cents (the pound labels divide out)
But 390 cents = $3.90
Answer:
0.35m + 25 = 42.50
Step-by-step explanation:
If you were to rent a truck for one day you will first have to pay a $25 fee for one day. This is represented by + 25 in the equation above.
Then for every mile you go you must pay $0.35, represented as 0.35m.
<em>As an example to make it easier if you had to pay 1 dollar per mile and you went 10 miles it would cost $10. This can be proved by 1m (m being the variable for number of miles) Plug in 10 for m and you can asee 1(10)=10, because obviously 1 times 10 is 10. </em>
Same premise with $0.35
Then both of those fees added up are equal to a total of $42.50.
To prove it can find the exact number of miles that need to be driven to cost a total of $42.50 just follow steps bellow.
1. 0.35m + 25 - 25 = 42.50 - 25
Subtracting the inital fee since it is part of the total, and if you add/subtract/multiply/divide on one side you must do to the other.
2. 0.35m/0.35 = 17.50/0.35
You divide because m is being multiplied with 0.35 and to undo the multiplication you divide. Doing the same to both sides.
3. m = 50
Plug in 50 to "m" in the equation above and if both sides are equal the answer is valid.
