Answer:
16/24
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x 8 = 16
3 x 8 = 24
When you expand the binomial, you isolate each of the parts.
So, (x-y)^4 would turn into...
x^4 - y^4
The powers stay the same because (outside the parenthesis) you multiply them with whatever is inside the parenthesis. In this case, would be 1. All variables and numbers without a listed power have a power of one. Multiply 4*1 to get 4.
To show that they used the same amount of ribbon you could take the 1 yard and divided into different sized equal groups.
1 yard divided by four equals 1/4 yard for each of four ribbons.
1 yard divided by six equals 1/6 yard for each of six ribbons.
You could have ribbons the size of 1/4 our yard and 1/6 yard, but you would have different amounts of each.
Answer:
a=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
4= 6/a + 5
Subtract 5 from each side
4-5= 6/a + 5 -5
-1 = 6/a
Multiply by a on each side
-1*a = 6/a *a
-a =6
Multiply by -1
a= -6
