We are given

Firstly, we simplify left side
Left side is

we will make all x terms together
and y terms together



we can multiply left side by using exponent rule



now, we can set them equal

Since, both sides have x,y and 8
and both are equal
so, their exponent must be equal
so, exponent of y must also be equal
we get

We are told in the question that 1 carat is equal to 200 mg.
The Hope Diamond is 44.5 carats. Let's multiply the weight of 1 carat by 44.5 to get the weight of the Hope Diamond in mg:

The total weight of the Hope Diamond is 8,900 mg. However the question asks for the weight in grams. There are 1000 mg in 1 gram, so let's divide the known weight of the Hope Diamond in mg by 1000 to get the weight converted to grams:

Now we know that
the weight of the Hope Diamond is equal to 8.9 grams.
Answer:
the answer is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute property requires you to multiply the number outside the parenthesis in everything in the parenthesis. hope this helps.
I'm pretty sure that it would be 1,000...
Yes. Take for example a square and an ellipsis with the same perimeter. The family of ellipses with the same perimeter can have any area between that of a circle to zero (if it is extremely “thin” i.e. if its eccentricity is large). The circle has the maximum area of any other shape with the same perimeter, so the square has the same area of one of the intermediate ellipses.
