Step-by-step explanation:
(2x³y^-4)^-2 = 1/(4x⁶y^‐8) = y⁸/(4x⁶)
1/(8x⁵y^-7) = y⁷/(8x⁵)
4x^-9y⁴ = 4y⁴/x⁹
so, the whole expression is then
y⁸/(4x⁶) × y⁷/(8x⁵) × 4y⁴/x⁹
4y¹⁹/(32x²⁰) = y¹⁹/(8x²⁰)
so, D is the correct answer.
We take the distance from points which indicates the location of the park and the mall.
For distance through north and east, we have positive values and negative for west and south.
Mall: (-3, -4)
Park: (3, 5)
The distance is calculate through the equation,
d = sqrt ((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²)
Substituting,
d = sqrt ((-4 - 5)² + (-3 - 3)²
d = sqrt 117 = 10.82
Thus, the distance between the mall and the park is approximately 10.82 miles.
