<span>6^1/3 * 6^1/4 = 6^x/y
The key to solving this problem is understanding properties of exponents:
If you are multiplying two powers with the same base (in this case the base is 6), the result is the base raised to the power of the two exponents added together.
6^1/3+1/4 = 6^x/y
6^7/12 = 6^x/y
So the product would be 6^7/12
x = 7
y = 12</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is option B
Cost of the article = $27.50
Amount of city sales tax = (27.50 x 6%) = $1.65
Amount of excise tax = (27.50 x 8%) = $2.20
From my knowledge, we pay city sales tax and federal excise tax when we buy something, so the total cost would be $31.35
20 + 40x = 260
40x = 260 - 20
40x = 240
x = 240/40
x = 6 fulltime employees needed
