<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Exponential Rule [Powering]:                                                                           \displaystyle (b^m)^n = b^{m \cdot n}
  • Exponential Rule [Rewrite]:                                                                              \displaystyle b^{-m} = \frac{1}{b^m}<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

<em />\displaystyle \bigg( \frac{1}{4} \bigg)^{x + 1} = 32<em />

<em />

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Rewrite:                                                                                                             \displaystyle \bigg( \frac{1}{2^2} \bigg)^{x + 1} = 2^5
  2. Exponential Rule [Rewrite]:                                                                              \displaystyle (2^{-2})^{x + 1} = 2^5
  3. Exponential Rule [Powering]:                                                                          \displaystyle 2^{-2(x + 1)} = 2^5
  4. Set:                                                                                                                    \displaystyle -2(x + 1)} = 5
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -2 on both sides:                                \displaystyle x + 1 = \frac{-5}{2}
  6. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract -1 on both sides:                        \displaystyle x = \frac{-7}{2}

Mr. Carson wants to give three pencils to each of his students. There are 26 students in Mr. Carsons class. Boxes of pencils eac
Rasek [7]
Since there are 26 students in Mr. Carson's class, and each kid gets 3 pencils, that means we will multiply 26 and 3, in which we get 78. Now, since boxes of pencils only contain a dozen, which is 12 pencils, we will divide 78 by twelve, in which we get 6.5 boxes. You can't buy half a box, so he will need 7 boxes, since having 6 boxes means that you don't have enough pencils.

Hope this helps!

Abby feeds her dog 1 1/2 cups of food each day, and Braxton feeds his dog 4 1/2 cups of food each day. In one week, how many tim
ddd [48]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Abby's dog: 1.5 cups of food
  • Braxton's dog: 4.5 cups of food

Looking at the information we got, we can say that Braxton's dog eats more. Let's put them into ratio form (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog)

  • => (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog) = 4.5:1.5

<u>Now, put them into fractions.</u>

  • => 4.5:1.5 = 4.5/1.5 = 3

We can conclude that Braxton's dog eats 3 times more food.
