(-2x²y)³ / (xy²z)² * (-yz)² Hello guys, im having trouble with this babe...

Mathematics

\frac{(-2x^2y)^3}{(xy^2z)^2(-yz)^2}

On top: (-2)³ = -2 × -2 × -2 = -8
(x²)³ = x^6 (the exponents multiply)
and of course, (y)³ = y³

On the bottom: (xy²z)² = x² y^4 z²
(-yz)² = y²z²
Multiplying these together, the exponents add and we get x² y^6 z^4.

\frac{-8x^6y^3}{x^2y^6z^4}

So, your reasoning is correct for what you have so far.

Your next step would be cancelling shared factors from the top and bottom.
Just like with regular fractions, if the numerator and denominator are divisible by the same number, you can divide them by it to simplify. (ex: 4/6 = 2/3)

Well, x^6 and x^2 are both divisible by x^2, right?
We can also cancel the y^3.

It might help to visualise the factors like this:

\frac{-8xxxxxxyyy}{xxyyyyyyzzzz}

Once you've cancelled out x² and y³ from each, you're left with

\boxed{\frac{-8x^4}{y^3z^4}}

How many pounds of cashews that cost $14 per pound must be mixed with 5 pounds of peanuts that cost $6.50 per pound to make mixe
Fantom [35]

The amount of cashew mixed is 5 pounds

<h3>Word problem on total cost</h3>

Cost of 1 pound of cashew = $14

Cost of 1 pound of peanut = $6.50

Total cost of 1 pound of the mixed nuts = $10.25

Cost of 5 pounds of peanuts = 5 x $6.50

Cost of 5 pounds of peanuts = $32.50

Let the amount of cashew  be x

Total cost of x cashew = 14x

Total amount of the mixed nuts = x + 5

Total cost of the mixed nuts = 10.25(x+5)

Total cost of the mixed nuts = 10.25x + 51.25

14x  +  32.50  =  10.25x  +  51.25

14x - 10.25x  =  51.25  -  32.50

3.75x  =  18.75

x  =  18.75/3.75

x  =  5

Therefore, the amount of cashew mixed is 5 pounds
