Question

PLEASE HELP FOR 87 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

1. You can expand the coefficients to yield 6, and add the powers since the bases are the same (ie A)

2. y⁻² can also be rewritten as 1/y², so it becomes 1/y² · 1/y⁵ = 1/y⁷ (ie C)

3. Only the x is affected by the power.

4. y = 3·5ˣ doesn't change in slope, so it essentially is similar to a 5ˣ graph.

5. Should be pretty straight forward.
6. Should be pretty straight forward.
7. Should be pretty straight forward.

8. Since x is the length of the border, calculate the area of the frame and subtract that from the area of the square painting. (Remember that the length of the square painting is x - 8, not x - 4)

9. Should be pretty straight forward.
11 - 25 are pretty much similar to each other.
If you have trouble, let me know and I'll walk you through it.

Answer 2

Answer:

x=9

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the area of the frame and subtract that from the area of the square painting. (Remember that the length of the square painting is x - 8, not x - 4)
