True for example a ray is using it’s endpoints first & then any other point on the ray (—> BA
Power rules for both quotient and product sums are useful to simplify large exponential form (of the same base)
The difference is in the rule. For quotient sum, the powers are subtracted, while for product sum, the powers are added up.
An example for quotient sum

Using the principle of simplifying fractions, we can cancel out ten 7s from both numerator and denominator, leaving us with only three 7s on the numerator which gives us

. This working out could be simplified by doing

An example for product sum

. There is a total of eleven 9s if we were to work out the product sum the long way. This could be simplified by doing
Let's separate the hexagon into 5 shapes; 2 triangles on each side, and a rectangle in the middle. Now let's find the area of each of the smaller shapes.
Top left triangle:The equation to find the area of a triangle is
(base = b, height = h, a = area)
a = b · h ·

Now let's add in our values and solve.
a = 2 · 4 ·

a = 8 ·

a =
4Now since there are 4 of these triangles, and they're all the same size,
4 · 4 =
16All of the triangles put together =
16cm²The middle rectangle:The equation to find the area of a rectangle is simple:
(w = width, l = length, a = area)
a = w · l
Now let's put in our values and solve.
a = 4 · 8
a =
32The rectangle is
32cm²Now let's add the areas together.
32 + 16 =
48The answer is <span>
48cm²Hope this helped! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, please comment or DM me. :)

First ne is 3x then 2x then 26x
Hello there!
2x - 7 = 3
Solve for x
2x = 3 + 7
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
Therefore, the number of x in the equation is 5
Let me know if you have additional question!
