85=x +25+x
85=2x +25
60=2x
30=x
So the smaller piece of wood is 30 cm: the other piece is 55cm long

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

b. and d.

Step-by-step explanation:

$20 = \frac{20}{100} \\ 0.25 = \frac{25}{100} \\ \frac{1}{5} = \frac{20}{100} \\ \frac{1}{10} = \frac{10}{100} \\ 0.20 = \frac{20}{100}$

Pat shows that 16 1/2= the square root of 16. What is one possible way pat could have shown this correctly?

kifflom [539]

<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

The base 16 is the same as 4*4.

From there, the rule $(a*b)^c = a^c*b^c$ is used to get $(4*4)^{1/2} = 4^{1/2}*4^{1/2}$

Afterward, the exponents are added getting 1/2+1/2 = 2/2 = 1. The rule is $a^b*a^c = a^{b+c}$ which only works if the bases are both the same.
