So x is John's age.
We can solve this problem by working backwards.
Since it's 5 times his age, we first do 5x.
And then since it's five less, we move on to 5x - 5
And then we add the John's age is increased by 11: 5x - 5 = x + 11
I hope this helped :)
(It should be the second one you listed)

Due to a leak, the amount of water in a pool is decreasing by 5858 gal every hour.
Dafna1 [17]
Here is the solution to the given problem above.
Given the the amount of water in a pool is decreasing 5/8 gallon every hour.
And what would be the change in the number of gallons after 3/4 hour. So what we are going to do is just to multiply 5/8 by 3/4. And the result would be 15/32. The total change in the number of gallons of water in the pool after 3/4 hour would be 15/32 gallons.

Answer:

1) 32m^{6}n^{14}

2) 3j^{4}k^{8}

3) 135a^{11}b^{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

to know: when multiplying terms with same base and exponents, multiply the bases and add the exponents

to know: when dividing terms with same base and exponents, divide the bases and subtract the exponents

to know: whenever exponents are contained within a set of parentheses and separated by another set of parentheses, multiply the exponents

1) (4^{4}· m^{12} · n^{20}) ÷ 2³m^{6}n^{6} = 3j^{4}k^{8}

2) (15j^{5}k^{2}· 25j²k^{9}) ÷ 5³j³k³ = (375j^{7}k^{11}) ÷ 125j³k³ = 3j^{4}k^{8}

3) (5 · 3³) a^{11}b^{16} = 135a^{11}b^{16}

What is the sum of 3/10 and 17/100
alina1380 [7]
3/10 + 17/100

first make the 10 of the 3/10 turn into a 100 so it will make the 100 of the 17/100.
to make 10 turn into a 100 you multiply it by 10. if you're going to multiply the bottom number by 10 then you have to do the same thing with the top number:
3/10 * 10/10
3*10=30
10*10=100

new equation:
30/100 + 17/100

now just add the top numbers and leave the 100's alone:
<span>30/100 + 17/100
</span>30+17=47
<span>30/100 + 17/100 = 47/100</span>
