<u>Answer:</u>
8
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given the following expression and we are to find the simplest form of this expression:

First of all, we will factor the coefficient:

Rewriting it as:

Applying the exponent rule
to get:


The pool has a diameter 20 ft so: r = 10 ft.
The pool cover extents 12 inches beyond the edge of the pool.
12 inches = 1 foot
Therefore, the radius of the pool cover is : r = 10 + 1 = 11 ft.
a. The area of the pool cover:
A = r² π = 11² π = 121 π ft²
b. The length of the rope:
l = 2 r π = 2 · 11 π = 22 π ft.

Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of segments is used:
EF +FG = EG
3x +(5x +16) = 11x -2 . . . . substitute given expressions
8x +18 = 11x . . . . . . . . add 2
18 = 3x . . . . . . . . subtract 8x
6 = x . . . . . . divide by 3
The value of the variable is 6.
__
<em>Check</em>
The segment lengths are ...
EF = 3x = 3·6 = 18
FG = 5x+16 = 5·6 +16 = 46
EG = 11x -2 = 11·6 -2 = 64 = 18+46 . . . answer is correct
Answer:
a exponent 2-b exponent 2
ab
7 * 38 + 3*45 - 56
use order of operations
(7*38) + (3*45) - 56
266 + 135 - 56
