First, Alvin gave Joyce and Sean 2/3 of the remainder, to solve first find the common denominator, which in this case is 24. Then, 1/3=?/24, 24/3=8 so it is 8/24 for the total given by Alvin. Joyce got 5/8, 5/8=?/24, 24/8=3,3 x 5=15, 15/24.
15/24 - 8/24=  7/24 is the answer

The edge length of cube A is two times the edge length of cube B. How many times greater isthe volume of the cube A than the vol
allsm [11]

Answer:

<h2>8 times greater</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a cube:

V=a^3

a - edge length

-----------------------------------

The edge length of cube B is a.

The edge length of cube A is 2a.

Calculate the volumes:

V_A=(2a)^3=2^3a^3=8a^3\\\\V_B=a^3

How many times greater is the volume of the cube A than the volume of cube B?

Make the quotient:

\dfrac{V_A}{V_B}=\dfrac{8a^3}{a^3}=8

Which expression is equal to 5^4⋅5^8 ? 512 54 52 5−4
KiRa [710]

Answer is 5^12 which is choice A (assuming you meant to put the ^ symbol)

The bases are the same (both are 5), so you add the exponents: 4+8 = 12. The base stays the same the entire time.

So, 5^4*5^8 = 5^(4+8) = 5^12
