What is the simplest radical form of the expression? (x3y5)4/3

VikaD [51]

Rational exponents work as follows:

$a^{\frac{b}{c}}=\sqrt[c]{a^b}$

So, in your case, we have

$(x^3y^5)^{\frac{4}{3}} = \sqrt[3]{(x^3y^5)^4}=\sqrt[3]{x^{12}y^{20}}=\sqrt[3]{x^{12}y^{18}\cdot y^2}}=x^4y^6\sqrt[3]{y^2}$

See the attached image. The tree should consist of paths (left-to-right) that exhaust all the possible arrangements. 3 choices for the first bag (R, G, or B), 2 choices for the second (color availability depends on the first bag), and 1 for the third (again dependent on previous color), so there are $3\cdot2\cdot1=3!=6$ possible arrangements/permutations.

Two planes simultaneously left the Washington and LA and headed towards each other. The distance between the cities is 2700 mile

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Speed of the plane from Washington: $500\ mph$

Speed of the plane from LA: $600\ mph$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that:

$d=Vt$

Where "d" is distance, "V" is speed and "t" is time.

Let be "w" the speed in mph of the plane from Washington and "l" the speed in mph of the plane from LA.

We know that the distance between the cities is 2700 miles and after they flied for 2 hours, the distance between them was 500 miles. Then we can write the following equation:

$2w + 2l + 500 = 2700$ [Equation 1]
