$68 is discounted from the regular price.

To find this, you first divide 80% by 100 to get 0.8 (the decimal form of the percentage). Then, simply multiply 0.8 by 85 (or vise verse) to get $68. Since the question is asking for how much is discounted from the regular price, the final answer would be $68.

I hope this helps!

Simplify the following expression as much as you can use exponential properties. (6^-2)(3^-3)(3*6)^4

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Simplifying the expression $(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$ we get $\mathbf{108}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the expression $(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$

Solving:

$(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$

Applying exponent rule: $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$

$=\frac{1}{(6^{2})}\frac{1}{(3^{3})}(18)^4\\=\frac{(18)^4}{6^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\$

Factors of $18=2\times 3\times 3=2\times3^2$

Factors of $6=2\times 3$

Replacing terms with factors

$=\frac{(2\times3^2)^4}{(2\times 3)^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\=\frac{(2)^4\times(3^2)^4}{(2)^2\times (3)^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\$

Using exponent rule: $(a^m)^n=a^{m\times n}$

$=\frac{(2)^4\times(3)^8}{(2)^2\times (3)^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\=\frac{2^4\times 3^8}{2^2\times 3^{2}\:.\:3^{3}}$

Using exponent rule: $a^m.a^n=a^{m+n}$

$=\frac{2^4\times 3^8}{2^2\times 3^{2+3}}\\=\frac{2^4\times 3^8}{2^2\times 3^{5}}$

Now using exponent rule: $\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}$

$=2^{4-2}\times 3^{8-5}\\=2^{2}\times 3^{3}\\=4\times 27\\=108$

So, simplifying the expression $(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$ we get $\mathbf{108}$

Answer:

$x=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuses are equal in length of both triangles.

$13=4x+1$

$13-1=4x$

$12=4x$

$12/4=x$

$3=x$

The coordinates of point P on a coordinate grid are (−5, −6). Point P is reflected across the y-axis to obtain point Q and acros

Llana [10]

Hey friend!
Let's figure this out!

P(−5, −6)
reflect about y axis
Q(5, -6)
reflect about x axis
R(5,6)

So that gives you the answer!
3. Q(−5, 6) and R(5, −6)

Hope this helped!
