Simplify the expression. a^-5 b-4/a^-13 b^8​

Mathematics
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a^8 ÷ b^12

Step-by-step explanation:

a^-5 · b^-4 / a^-13 · b^8

when dividing exponents with the same bases, subtract the exponents

a^8 · b^-12

do not leave a negative exponent; put it into the denominator and it becomes positive

b^-12 = 1 /b^12

<h3>Answer:</h3>

After 16 downloads the charges will equal each other.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

First set up an equation

x = Downloads

12 + 1x = 5 + 1.5x

Solve

12 + 1x = 5 + 1.5x <- Rewrite your equation

-5          -5            <- Subtract 5 from both sides

 8 + 1x = 1.5x       <- Simplify

      -1x    -1x         <- Subtract 1 from both sides

        8 = 0.5x      <- Simplify

        8 = 1/2x       <- Convert 0.5 to a fraction to make the next step easier

       16 = x            <- Multiply both sides by 2 to divide by

                                 a fraction

Consider the polynomial below.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

(-4x - 2)(-5x) + (-4x - 2)(3)  

Step-by-step explanation:

Your polynomial is

(-4x - 2)(-5x + 3)

The distributive property states that

a(b + c) = ab + ac

Let a = -4x - 2.  Then

(-4x - 2)(-5x + 3) = a(5x + 3) = a(-5x) + a(3)

Substitute the value of a.

a(-5x) + a(3) = (-4x - 2)(-5x) + (-4x - 2)(3)

You have just distributed the first binomial (-4x - 2) among the terms of the second binomial.
