Answer:   53.4 = 19.9 + p

33.5% of commuters took public transportation in San Francisco.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the percentage of commuters took public transportation in San Francisco.

Given: 53.4% of commuters took public transportation in New York City, which was 19.9% greater than the percentage in San Francisco.

That means,

53.4 = 19.9 + p

Hence, required equation : 53.4 = 19.9 + p

Subtract 19.9 from both sides , we get

53.4-19.9=19.9-19.9+p\\\\\Rightarrow\ 33.5=p

hence, 33.5% of commuters took public transportation in San Francisco.

Solve for b in (y^-9)^b=y^45
ElenaW [278]
Y^-9 * b = y^45   Divide by y^-9
b = \dfrac{y^{45}}{y^{-9}}

The law of powers says that if you have the same base (y in this case) and two different powers that are divided, you can subtract the denominator from the numerator (in this case)

b = y^{45- - 9} = y^{54}
