Answer:
exponent of x is 33
exponent of y is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
you need to combine all powers (exponents) of x, and all exponents of y separately.
remember : x to the power of a divided by x to the power of b is x to the power of (a-b).
when multiplying, the "-" turns into a "+".
so, we have actually for x the exponent calculation :
8 - 14 -(-39) = 8 - 14 + 39 = 33
so, x³³ remains.
and for the y exponents
-26 -(-5) -(-21) = -26 + 5 + 21 = 0
so, all the y expressions eliminate each other and y⁰ remains.
<span>The answer is 7. Seven is a prime number, which means that its multiples are 1 and itself (7): 7 = 1 * 7. To find out which one is a factor of 7, we should divide each of them by 7. 1/7 will be a decimal number and 7/7 = 1, which is a whole number. Thus, 7 will be a multiple of 7 and also a factor of 7.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!</span>
The decimal conversion to 8 39/40 is 8.975 and the decimal terminates.
-32 + 8x - 8 = 6x + 12
8x - 40 = 6x + 12
8x = 6x + 12 + 40
8x = 6x + 52
8x - 6x = 52
2x = 52
x = 52/2
x = 26
