Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation: since it says Times, (for me times is multiplication) you would multiply -2 and 4. negative 2 would be from that person losing 2 points. and 4 since it is your total amount of times you have forgotten to write your name. so, -2 x 4 = -8.

how i got -8. both signs from -2 and 4 are different, and when they are different the answer will always be negative.

Simplify each only using positive exponents:<br> 2x^-3 • 4x^2<br> 2x^4 • 4x^-3<br> 2x^3y^-3 • 2x
erica [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

\frac{2}{x}

\frac{x}{2}

\frac{4x^4}{y^3}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

a. 2x^-3 • 4x^2

To solve this using only positive exponents, follow these steps:

i. Rewrite the expression in a clearer form

2x⁻³ . 4x²

ii. The position of the term with negative exponent is changed from denominator to numerator or numerator to denominator depending on its initial position. If it is at the numerator, it is moved to the denominator. If otherwise it is at the denominator, it is moved to the numerator. When this is done, the negative exponent is changed to positive.

In our case, the first term has a negative exponent and it is at the numerator. We therefore move it to the denominator and change the negative exponent to  positive as follows;

\frac{1}{2x^3} . 4x^2

iii. We then solve the result as follows;

\frac{1}{2x^3} . 4x^2 = \frac{2}{x}

Therefore, 2x⁻³ . 4x² = \frac{2}{x}

b. 2x^4 • 4x^-3

i. Rewrite as follows;

2x⁴ . 4x⁻³

ii. The second term has a negative exponent, therefore swap its position and change the negative exponent to a positive one.

2x^4 . \frac{1}{4x^3}

iii. Now solve by cancelling out common terms in the numerator and denominator. So we have;

\frac{x}{2}

Therefore, 2x⁴ . 4x⁻³ = \frac{x}{2}

c. 2x^3y^-3 • 2x

i. Rewrite as follows;

2x³y⁻³ . 2x

ii. Change position of terms with negative exponents;

2x^3.\frac{1}{y^3} .2x

iii. Now solve;

\frac{4x^4}{y^3}

Therefore, 2x³y⁻³ . 2x = \frac{4x^4}{y^3}

Stephen uses \dfrac{2}{25}
zepelin [54]

Answer:

13\dfrac{3}{4}$ servings

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephen uses \dfrac{2}{25} kilograms of tofu in each serving of his dish.

He has 1\dfrac{1}{10} kilograms of tofu.

We want to determine how many servings Stephen can make.

To do this, we divide the total weight of tofu by the weight per serving.

\dfrac{\text{Total Weight(in kg)}}{\text{Weight(kg) per serving}} =\dfrac{1\dfrac{1}{10}}{ \dfrac{2}{25}}\\ = \dfrac{11}{10}\div  \dfrac{2}{25}\\\\= \dfrac{11}{10}X  \dfrac{25}{2}\\\\= \dfrac{11X25}{10X2}\\\\= \dfrac{275}{20}\\\\=13\dfrac{3}{4}$ servings

Stephen can make 13\dfrac{3}{4}$ servings .

Two vertical angles have measures of 3x and x+50. The x= Select one: a. 25 b. 50 c. 32.5 d. 10
KIM [24]

Answer:

a. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the specifically state that they are vertical angles. This means that the two measurements should equal each other. Set the two expressions equal to each other, and isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other:

3x = x + 50

Subtract x from both sides to isolate the x:

3x (-x) = x (-x) + 50

3x - x = 50

2x = 50

Isolate the x, divide 2 from both sides:

(2x)/2 = (50)/2

x = 50/2

x = 25

x = 25, or (a) 25 is your answer.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

The angle congruent to ∠6 are ∠8, ∠3, ∠9 and ∠14

<h3>How to find congruent angles?</h3>

When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, angle relationships are formed. They include corresponding , alternate and many more.

L║m

n ║ q

Therefore, the angles congruent to ∠6 by alternate or corresponding relationship are as follows:

∠6≅∠8≅∠3≅∠9≅∠14
