30+(20x)=y
30 is the money you had from the start of the garage sale.
20 is what you are getting per hour
y equals the total money you are earning at the end of the garage sale
You have to plug in the numbers for x
Answer:4000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let them number be a
655% of a=26200
655/100 x a=26200
655a/100=26200
Cross multiplying we get
655a=26200x100
655a=2620000
Divide both sides by 655
655a/655 = 2620000/655
a=4000
Part A
(3x)^2*x^4
(3x)*(3x)*x^4 .... expand out (3x)^2
(3*3)*(x*x*x^4)
9x^6
Answer: 9x^6
============================================
Part B
It appears that Tonya forgot to square the 3 term and had this as her steps
(3x)^2*x^4
3x^2*x^4
3x^(2*4)
3x^8
Which is incorrect as the answer in part A indicates.
Not only is the '3' part wrong, but also the exponent of 8. Instead of multiplying the exponents, she should have added them.
The rule is a^b*a^c = a^(b+c). In this case, a = x, b = 2 and c = 4.
So x^2*x^4 = x^(2+4) = x^6
