Answer:

  ... you <u>add</u> the exponents

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponent is a way of showing repeated multiplication. For example, ...

  x^2 means x·x

and

  x^3 means x·x·x

If we multiply these two expressions together, we get ...

  (x^2)·(x^3) = (x·x)·(x·x·x) =  x·x·x·x·x

This is a product in which x appears as a factor 5 times, so we can write it using an exponent as ...

  x·x·x·x·x = x^5

___

That is, when we multiply the expressions, we add the numbers of times the factor appears in the product:

  2 + 3 = 5

  x^2 · x^3 = x^(2+3) = x^5

Solve the system of equations. <br><br> 10x+y=−20 <br><br> y=2x2−4x−16<br><br> ( , ) and ( , )
Sladkaya [172]
I will go about solving this using the elimination method.

First, convert the equations.

10x + y = -20
4x + y = -12

Second, find the easiest variable to get rid of and get rid of it!  (In this case, y)  We will subtract to get rid of y.

6x = -8

Third, you want to solve the equation.

6x = -8 (divide by 6)
x = -1 \frac{1}{3}

Fourth, solve for y by inserting the answer for x into one of the equations.

10(-1 \frac{1}{3}) + y = -20
-13 \frac{1}{3} + y = -20 (subtract -13 \frac{1}{3})
y = -6 \frac{2}{3}

The solution for this system of equations is (-1 \frac{1}{3}, -6 \frac{2}{3}).

What is the unit rate of 1.49 for 10
kap26 [50]

If you mean it costs $1.49 to buy 10 items, then the unit rate is $0.15 or 15 cents

This is because you divide 1.49 over 10 like so: 1.49/10 = 0.149, then round this to the nearest penny to get 0.15

0.15 dollars = 15 cents

so basically whatever this item is, it costs 15 cents per item
