Answer:

Measurements were needed for multiple things, such as agriculture, construction, and trade. Also, many areas developed their own systems for measuring objects making it difficult as people from different places had different results. Eventually, the same system was adopted by the majority of people.

Answer:

$\boxed{2^{\frac{802}{27}} \cdot 3^9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>I will try to give as many details as possible. </u>

First of all, I just would like to say:

$\text{Use } \LaTeX !$

Texting in Latex is much more clear and depending on the question, just writing down without it may be confusing or ambiguous. Be together with Latex! （＊＾Ｕ＾）人（≧Ｖ≦＊）/

$(3^{-2} \cdot 4^{-5} \cdot 5^0)^{-3} \cdot (4^{-\frac{4}{3^3} })\cdot 3^3$

Note that

$\boxed{a^{-b} = \dfrac{1}{a^b}, a\neq 0 }$

The denominator can't be 0 because it would be undefined.

So, we can solve the expression inside both parentheses.

$\left(\dfrac{1}{3^2} \cdot \dfrac{1}{4^5} \cdot 5^0 \right)^{-3} \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{4^{\frac{4}{3^3} } }\right)\cdot 3^3$

Also,

$\boxed{a^{0} = 1, a\neq 0 }$

$\left(\dfrac{1}{9} \cdot \dfrac{1}{1024} \cdot 1 \right)^{-3} \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{4^{\frac{4}{27} } }\right)\cdot 27$

Note

$\boxed{\dfrac{1}{a} \cdot \dfrac{1}{b}= \frac{1}{ab} , a, b \neq 0}$

$\left(\dfrac{1}{9216} \right)^{-3} \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{4^{\frac{4}{27} } }\right)\cdot 27$

$\left(\dfrac{1}{9216} \right)^{-3} \cdot \left(\dfrac{27}{4^{\frac{4}{27} } }\right)$

$\left( \dfrac{1}{\left(\dfrac{1}{9216}\right)^3} \right)\cdot \left(\dfrac{27}{4^{\frac{4}{9} } }\right)$

$\left( \dfrac{1}{\left(\dfrac{1}{9216}\right)^3} \right)\cdot \left(\dfrac{27}{4^{\frac{4}{27} } }\right)$

Note

$\boxed{\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{a} } = a}$

$9216^3\cdot \left(\dfrac{27}{4^{\frac{4}{9} } }\right)$

$\left(\dfrac{ 9216^3\cdot 27}{4^{\frac{4}{27} } }\right)$

Once

$9216=2^{10}\cdot 3^2 \implies 9216^3=2^{30}\cdot 3^6$

$\boxed{(a \cdot b)^n=a^n \cdot b^n}$

And

$4^{\frac{4}{27}} = 2^{\frac{8}{27}$

We have

$\left(\dfrac{ 2^{30} \cdot 3^6\cdot 27}{2^{\frac{8}{27} } }\right)$

Also, once

$\boxed{\dfrac{c^a}{c^b}=c^{a-b}}$

$2^{30-\frac{8}{27}} \cdot 3^6\cdot 27$

$30-\dfrac{8}{27} = \dfrac{30 \cdot 27}{27}-\dfrac{8}{27} =\dfrac{802}{27}$

$2^{30-\frac{8}{27}} \cdot 3^6\cdot 27 = 2^{\frac{802}{27}} \cdot 3^6 \cdot 3^3$

$2^{\frac{802}{27}} \cdot 3^9$

in a recent survey, 336 out of 500 people chose reallygood cola as their favorite soft drink. If a similar survey was conducted

MrRa [10]

In the first survery $\frac{336}{500}$ considered cola.
Assuming we can extrapolate this ratio, all we have to do is get the same ratio, but out of 2000 people.
$\frac{336}{500} * \frac{4}{4} \\ \frac{1344}{2000}$
The answer is 1344 people.
