1 is not even yet it is a factor of 8. Alice is wrong.
I got this picture from photomath, hope it helps
Well not sure what you are asking, but If it is what I think it is, it would go like this:
2
(9^2)
Then the answer should be
9^4 since we multiply the exponents.
If you mean this...
3^2....It would be same as 3 x 3 which we should know is equal to nine.
Hope I helped! (Be sure to thank me!)
rs + st = rt Plug in the values
3x + 1 + 2x - 2 = 64 Combine like terms (1 and -2)
3x -1 + 2x = 64 Combine like terms (3x and 2x)
-1 + 5x = 64 Add 1 to both sides
5x = 65 Divide both sides by 5
x = 13
