Option C:
is the value of a and b
Explanation:
Given that the expression 
We need to determine the value of a and b
Let us consider the term
and take the prime factorization of the term 648
Thus, we have,
648 divides by 2,

324 divides by 2,

162 divides by 2,

81 divides by 3,

27 divides by 3,

9 divides by 3,

Thus, we have,

Therefore, equating the powers of 2 and 3, we get,

Hence, the value of a and b is 3 and 4
Thus, Option C is the correct answer.
We need to start from the innermost parenthesis and work our way out.
The first parenthesis is
. These are not like terms because one involves a variable, while the other is a constant term. Two terms are summable if they involve the same power(s) of the same variable(s).
So, we can take one step outwards, and we arrive to the square brackets. We have

and 2z and -13z are like terms, so we can sum them:

Finally we arrive to the whole expression, which is

Because, again, 5z and 11z were like terms.
Use the formula I = PRT.....you'll get $2000
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : An equation relating packets to bytes of information :
where<em> p</em> represents the number of packets and <em>b</em> represents the number of bytes of information.
1 byte = 8 bits
Let x= Number of bits such that 1 b = 8x
Put b = 8x in given equation , we get

Divide both sides by 8 , we get

Hence, the equation represent the relationship between the number of packets and the number of bits :
