Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in
. This will become
, and
. Now, the expression is:
.
We can now simplify the bottom to read:
because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents. The expression now looks like:

The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:

Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom. When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents. However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent. The final answer is:

Hope this makes sense!!
$10.50a + $3.75b = $2,071.50
It is given that b = 82
Therefore - $10.50a + ($3.75)(82) = $2,071.50
or $10.50a + $307.50 = $2,071.50
$10.50a = $2,071.50 - $307.50 = $1,764.00
Therefore - a (number of adult tickets sold) = $1,764.00/$10.50 = 168 tickets
1 hr = 60 minutes....so 6 hrs = (6 * 60) = 360 minutes
198 / 360 = 0.55 mousetraps per minute
no, 2 mousetraps per minute is not accurate
Answer: 45 and 46
Step-by-step explanation: let the first integer be x and the second x + 1
i.e x + x + 1 = 91
2x = 90
x = 45
the second is 45+1 = 46
