1 answer:

7 0

Remember:
a^m * a^n=a^(m+n)
a^-m=1/a^m

8³ x 8⁻⁵=8³⁻⁵=8⁻²=1/8²=1/64<1

Answer: the student is not correct, because 1/64<1, and 8³ x 8⁻⁵=1/64.

Snowcat [4.5K]

This is possible providing the garden is in the shape that has equal sides, such as a square or an equilateral triangle.

Area of a square is found by multiplying one side to the other, which would be the same as multiplying two same numbers.

Use diagrams or the description of equivalent ratios to show thay 2:3,4:6, and 8:12 are equivalent

VikaD [51]

So
lets say we have
a/b=2a/2b
we know that if we invert one and multiply it by the other (divide them), we get 1 because a/a=1 where a=a

so
2/3 and 4/6 are equivelent because if you divide them we get 12/12=1

2/3 and 8/12 are equivilent because if you divide them we get 24/24=1

and sinde 2/3=4/6 and 2/3=8/12, 2/3=4/6=8/12

they are equivlent
