The correct answer is -b+12
(cube root of 5) * sqrt(5)
--------------------------------- = ?
(cube root of 5^5)
This becomes easier if we switch to fractional exponents:
5^(1/3) * 5^(1/2) 5^(1/3 + 1/2) 5^(5/6)
------------------------ = --------------------- = ------------- = 5^[5/6 - 5/3]
[ 5^5 ]^(1/3) 5^(5/3) 5^(5/3)
Note that 5/6 - 5/3 = 5/6 - 10/6 = -5/6.
1
Thus, 5^[5/6 - 5/3] = 5^(-5/6) = --------------
5^(5/6)
That's the correct answer. But if you want to remove the fractional exponent from the denominator, do this:
1 5^(1/6) 5^(1/6)
---------- * ------------- = -------------- (ANSWER)
5^(5/6) 5^(1/6) 5
If you are factoring it you can factor it into (x+5)^2
So first we assume that half is adult and have is student.
So
215 adult 215 student
Now since it said they were 70 less student tickets than adult tickets we subtract 70.
215 - 70 = 145
Now we add the 70 we subtracted from student tickets to the adult tickets.
215 + 70 = 285
So there were
285 adult tickets sold and 145 student tickets sold
I hope this helped. Have a great day!
