So first find a common denominator which is 100 in this question. Then change 5/10 into a denominator of 100 which is 50/100 you don't have to change 9/100 because it has a denominator of 100. So then add the fractions and the answer is 59/100
Whenever we have a negative exponent, that means that the function should be in the denomenator. then the exponent will be positive.
Example
16^-4 = 1/(16^4)
State A has 25 drive-in movie screens and State B has 21. You find this by guess-and-checking different numbers that you could add together to get 46. You want to do numbers that are relatively close, as a difference in 4 is not much at all. You can divide 46 by 2 and then play around from there.
Answer:
(-3)^13
Step-by-step explanation:
(-3) is a constant value so there is no change
You must add 4 and 9 together to create one exponent of 13
