0 ≠ 4. The equation is wrong, and has no true solution.
8x + 3 - 10x = -2(x - 2) + 3
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
8x + 3 - 10x = -2x + 4 + 3
<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>
-2x + 3 = -2x + 7
<em><u>Cancel like terms.</u></em>
<em><u>Subtract 3 from both sides.</u></em>
0 ≠ 4
Since there is a negative correlation, evident by the negative slope of the equation of the line given to be -0.5, if we take t as 0, we get an equation of,
s = 3.6
This means that if a student does not watch television, he or she spends a maximum of 3.6 hours studying.
Soo first apply the exponent rule (2^5)^1/3*1/4
1/3*1/4= 1/12
so (2^5)^1/12
then you apply the exponent rule again 2^5*1/2
so 5*1/12= 5/12
So the answer would be 2^5/12
