Step-by-step explanation:
A fraction is in simplest form when no other factor but 1 will divide into the numerator/ denominator
(1)
← is in simplest form
(2)
← is in simplest form
(3)
( divide numerator/ denominator by 2 )
= 
← in simplest form
Answer:Thus, (-3)-4 = 1/(-3)4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative exponents have the following property: n-m = 1/nm OR 1/n-m = nm
So for (-3)-4 , n= -3 and -m= -4 (or m= 4).
Thus, (-3)-4 = 1/(-3)4.
Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:
- 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
- 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)
where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch
Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)
36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420
⇒ 4x = 36
⇒ x = 9
Put value of x in (i)
⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152
⇒ 108 + 4y = 152
⇒ 4y = 44
⇒ y = 11
Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.
Let the number be n.
Then:
n^2 + (1/n)^2 = 82/9; find n. Find the LCD; it is 9n^2.
Mult all 3 terms by 9n^2:
82*9n^2
9n^4 + 9 = (82/9)(9n^2) => 9n^4 + 9 = ------------
9
Then 9n^4 - 82n^2 + 9 = 0
I used my graphing calculator to find that n = 3.
Let's check: is 3^2 + (1/3)^2 = 82/9?
Is 9 + 1/9 = 82/9?
Is 81 + 1 = 82? YES. So, n=3 is a solution.
