The ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob is 70 ounce

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Jacob is making several batches of cookies and is using 84 total ounces of chips

Let "c" be the ounces of chocolate chips

Let "p" be the ounces of peanut butter chips

To find: ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob

Given that There are 5 times as many ounces of chocolate chips as peanut butter chips

<em><u>Thus we can frame a equation as:</u></em>

ounces of chocolate chips = 5 x ounces of peanut butter chips

c = 5p -------- eqn 1

Jacob used 84 total ounces of chip. Therefore,

ounces of chocolate chips + ounces of peanut butter chips = 84

c + p = 84 ---- eqn 2

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2

5p + p = 84

6p = 84

<h3>p = 14</h3>

Substitute p = 14 in eqn 1

c = 5(14) = 70

<h3>c = 70</h3>

Thus the ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob is 70 ounce

Answer:

Some of the Exponents = -2 that is true, not 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check one at a time.

(a)The 6 without an exponent is equivalent to the 6 having a 0 exponent.

6^{0} =1 and 6^{1} = 6 (no exponent. 6 \neq 1 therefore this statement is False.

(b)The sum of the exponents is -2.

let's check , if the base is same we can add the exponents that is the exponent rule.(well established).

if we add exponents in the given expression we get.

6^{1} 6^{0} 6^{3} =6^{1+0+(-3)} =6^{-2}, therefore we can see that the sum of the exponents = -2 this is true.

(c) An equivalent expression is 65.6-7, lets evaluate our above expression, it is equal to \frac{1}{36} which we can see that \frac{1}{36}  \neq 65.6-7 ,therefore this statement is false as well.
