The product of 3 and a number is 12 more than the sum of the number and 26. What is the number?

1 answer:

4 0

The product of three and a number (3n) is 12 more than (=12 +) the sum of the number and 26 (n + 26). Put all of those together.

2n = 12 + n + 26 Combine like terms. (12 + 26)
2n = 28 + n Subtract to get the variables together. (2n - n)
n = 28

16. Which is greater, 4^-2 or<br> 2^-4? How do you know?<br> Those are exponents.

gladu [14]

Answer:

Both are equal to $\frac{1}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the exponent is negative we can turn it into a fraction and make it positive.

This means the number goes to the denominator and the numerator becomes one. Therefore the following.

$4^{-2} = \frac{1}{4^{2} } =\frac{1}{16}$

$2^{-4} =\frac{1}{2^{4} } = \frac{1}{16}$

What is the degree of an angle in a regular heptagon

Ronch [10]

There is 360 degrees in a full revolution.
There are 7 sides/edges/vertices in a heptagon.
360/7 = 51.42857143
The degree of an angle in a regular heptagon is thus 51.42857143 degrees.
