Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in . This will become
, and
. Now, the expression is:
.
We can now simplify the bottom to read: because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents. The expression now looks like:
The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:
Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom. When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents. However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent. The final answer is:
Hope this makes sense!!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's look at the largest triangle (two smaller triangles are combined) to solve for . Since the sum of the angles in a triangle adds up to
, we can write the equation:
Looking at the smaller triangle on the left, (exterior angle) is the sum of the two opposite interior angles of the triangle on the left:
Since is the exterior angle of the triangle on the right, it is equivalent to the sum of the opposite interior angles of that triangle:
Hope this helps :)
