One nice thing about this situation is that you’ve been given everything in the same base. To review a little on the laws of exponents, when you have two exponents with the same base being:
– Multiplied: Add their exponents
– Divided: Subtract their exponents
We can see that in both the numerator and denominator we have exponents *multiplied* together, and the product in the numerator is being *divided* by the product in the detonator, so that translates to *summing the exponents on the top and bottom and then finding their difference*. Let’s throw away the twos for a moment and just focus on the exponents. We have
[11/2 + (-7) + (-5)] - [3 + 1/2 + (-10)]
For convenience’s sake, I’m going to turn 11/2 into the mixed number 5 1/2. Summing the terms in the first brackets gives us
5 1/2 + (-7) + (-5) = - 1 1/2 + (-5) = -6 1/2
And summing the terms in the second:
3 + 1/2 + (-10) = 3 1/2 + (-10) = -6 1/2
Putting those both into our first question gives us -6 1/2 - (-6 1/2), which is 0, since any number minus itself gives us 0.
Now we can bring the 2 back into the mix. The 0 we found is the exponent the 2 is being raised to, so our answer is
2^0, which is just 1.
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
7(4x+1)−3x=5x−13
Distribute
28x +7 -3x = 5x -13
Combine like terms
25x+7 = 5x-13
Subtract 5x from each side
25x-5x +7 = -13
20x +7 = -13
Subtract 7 from each side
20x+7-7 = -13-7
20x = -20
Divide by 20
20x/20 = -20/20
x = -1
