In the division rule you subtract the exponents<span> when </span>dividing<span> numbers with the same base. </span>One<span> rule for exponents is that exponents add when you have the same base. This works for any number x that you want to plug in except for x = </span>0<span>,because </span>0/0<span> is indeterminate (it is like dividing </span>zero<span> by </span>zero<span>). No matter what number we use when it is raised to the </span>zero power<span> it will always be </span>1.

The sides of a triangle are (x+5), and (x+8) units. Find the value of x if the perimeter of the triangle is 106 units.
lutik1710 [3]
106=x+x+5+x+8

106=3x+13

3x=93

x=31

(the sides are 31, 36, 39 respectively)

If you were to roll the dice one time what is the probability it will NOT land on a 2? Put your answer in fraction form.
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

On a standard 6-sided die, there is only one 2. That means that there are 5 other numbers that it could land on (1, 3, 4, 5, 6).

Using that information, the probability of it not landing on a 2 is 5 out of 6 or 5/6. This is because you must do part over whole. The "part" in this situation is the 5 "wanted" numbers, and the "whole" is 6 because there are six potential numbers that it could land on.

I hope this helps.
