Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Step-by-step explanation:
When a denominator has a positive exponent we change it into an expression with a negative exponent and vice-versa, when a numerator has a positive exponent, we change it into a denominator with a negative exponent.
a) 
= p⁻⁴
b) 
= 25⁻¹
Answer:
1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/8 - 1 7/8
I like to line them up vertically
3 1/8
- 1 7/8
---------------
We need to borrow from the 3
Take 1 from the 3 and make it 8/8
2 (1/8+8/8)
- 1 (7/8)
---------------------
2 (9/8)
- 1 (7/8)
---------------------
1 2/8
Simplify the fraction by dividing by 2 on the top and bottom
1 1/4
Answer:
Each shirt cost $12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to interpret this question and turn each to an equation, letting shirts represent the letter s and ties represent the letter t.
6 shirts and 3 ties cost $79.50 would be interpreted to 6s+3t=79.5 ,and 3 shirts and 2 ties cost $41 would be interpreted to 3s+2t=41
Hence we have two equations, and we solve them simultaneously.
6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)
3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)
We can either use the substitution method or the elimination method but for the sake of this question, we use the Elimination method.
6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)
3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)
We multiply equation 1 by 2 and we multiply equation 2 by 3, I'm prefer to eliminate the
2(6s+3t=79.5)
12s+6t=159 Equation 3
3(3s+2t=41)
9s+6t=123 Equation 4
We subtract equation 4 from equation 3.
12s+6t=159
9s+6t=123
12s-9s=3s
6t-6t=0
159-123=36
We therefore have
3s=36
Divide both sides by 3
s=36/3
s=12
One shirt cost $12
