The answer is: w^2-121 and a^2-36. I am taking this test now.
Answer:
4 should be the answer to the question
1. plug in the numbers for the variables, like this: 9(-5)+18(-1)
2. solve
Hopefully this helps! Let me know if you need more explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = rate × time
If B is the rate of the boat, and C is the rate of the current, then we can write two equations:
18 = (B + C) × 3
18 = (B − C) × 9
Simplifying the equations:
6 = B + C
2 = B − C
Add the equations together to eliminate C:
8 = 2B
B = 4
Plug into either equation to find C:
C = 2
The boat's rate is 4 mph, and the current's rate is 2 mph.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Dealing with a fraction exponent on hand can be converted by using the fractional exponents rule where the fraction exponent is converted to something like this:
![64^\frac{2}{3} = \sqrt[3]{64^{2}}\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=64%5E%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B64%5E%7B2%7D%7D%5C%5C)
As you can see, the denominator of the fractional exponent is now the index of the radical. Here is a guide to know what goes where.
![64^\frac{x}{y} = \sqrt[y]{64^{x}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=64%5E%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7By%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5By%5D%7B64%5E%7Bx%7D%7D)
Both the original problem (64^2/3) and the converted formula can be put into a calculator.
