Answer:
She divided the coefficients incorrectly
Step-by-step explanation:
A. She divided the coefficients incorrectly.
B. She added the exponents instead of subtracting them.
C. She divided the coefficients instead of subtracting them.
D. She subtracted the exponents instead of dividing them.
Correct calculation:
3x³/12x^-2
= 3x³ ÷ 12x^-2
= 3x³ ÷ 1/12x²
= 3x³ × 12x²/1
= 36x^5
Tyna's calculation:
3x³/12x^-2 = x/4
Lets say the number is x so we can make an equation
If is at least 21, that means it has to be greater then or equal to it.
6+5*x>=21
You can subtract 6 from both sides
5*x>=15
Then divide both sides by 5
x>=3
You can conclude that the number is greater then or equal to 3.
Let the number of islands visited be x and that peninsulas be y
thus,
x+y=19
⇒y=19-x.........i
if he skydives twice in islands and thrice in peninsulas, then the total number of skydives will be:
2x+3y=45.....ii
substituting i in ii we get:
2x+3(19-x)=45
2x+57-3x=45
putting like terms together we get:
2x-3x=45-57
-x=-12
therefore
x=12
and
y=19-x=19-12=7
hence the number of islands visited was 12 and that of peninsulas was 7
Yes with any math expression or equation always use order of operation
5/12 equals to 20/48.
48÷12=4
5×4=20
