First convert the 2 1/2 into eighths to be able to subtract the numbers. That becomes 2 4/8. Next set up the subtraction. 11 1/8 - 2 4/8. Note that 4/8 is bigger than 1/8, meaning we have to borrow 8/8 from 11 making our problem 10 9/8 - 2 4/8. Now we subtract as normal: 10 - 2 = 8; 9/8 - 4/8 = 5/8.
Final answer: 8 5/8 inches

Select "Yes" or "No" to indicate whether the ordered pair is on the graph of the function f(x)=−9^x+1 .
Vinil7 [7]
I'm assuming your function is f(x) = -9^(x+1)
So we just have to plug in and see if the function is true.

1) -9^(0+1) = -9^1 = -9
YES

2) -9^(1+1) = -9^2 = -81
NO

3) -9^(-1+1) = -9^0 = -1
YES

How do I go about solving (27x^3/8y^9)^5/3? And what is the role of the numerator and denominator?
MrRissso [65]
\left( \frac{27x^3}{8y^9}\right)^ \frac{5}{3}  \\\\\\ =\left( \frac{(3x)^3}{(2y^3)^3}\right)^ \frac{5}{3} \\\\\\ =  \frac{(3x)^{3 \times  \frac{5}{3} }}{(2y^3)^{3 \times  \frac{5}{3} }} \\\\\\ =\frac{(3x)^5}{(2y^3)^{5 }} \\\\\\ =\frac{243x^5}{32y^{15}}

Now, If the exponent was negative like you asked....

\left( \frac{27x^3}{8y^9}\right)^ {-\frac{5}{3}} \\\\\\ =\left( \frac{8y^9}{27x^3}\right)^ {\frac{5}{3}}\\\\\\ =\left( \frac{(2y^3)^3}{(3x)^3}\right)^ \frac{5}{3} \\\\\\ = \frac{(2y^3)^{3 \times \frac{5}{3} }}{(3x)^{3 \times \frac{5}{3} }} \\\\\\ =\frac{(2y^3)^{5 }}{(3x)^5} \\\\\\ =\frac{32y^{15}}{243x^5}

D) 1188 in.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

33×36 is 1188, the triangle on the side doesn't matter because it can be used to make the rectangle a whole rectangle, which means that the only important numbers are 33 and 36 multiplied to find the area, which is 1188^2.
