Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we know that its $240 per 160 hot dogs

2. make that a ratio - 240:160

3. simplify the ratio so that the amount of hot dogs is at one (so divide both sides by 160)

4. so 240/160 = 1.5 . 160/160 = 1

5. 1.5:1

6. so for every one hotdog, you pay $1.50

Which shows the following expression after the negative exponents have been eliminated?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

$\frac{a^3b^4}{ab^2}$ which is the last choice in the question

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify

$\frac{a^3b^{-2}}{ab^{-4}} = \frac{a^3}{a}\frac{b^{-2}}{b^{-4}}$

Using the fact that $\frac{x^m}{x^n} =x^{m-n}$

We get

$\frac{a^3}{a} = a^{3-1} = a^2$

$\frac{b^{-2}}{b^{-4}} = b^{-2-(-4)} = b^2$

$\frac{a^3b^{-2}}{ab^{-4}} =a^2b^2$

Multiplying numerator and denominator by $ab^2$ gives

$a^2b^2 \frac{ab^2}{ab^2}$

= $\frac{a^3b^4}{ab^2}$ ANSWER

Hint:

We can eliminate first choice since negative exponents still remain

We can eliminate third choice because the expression has a minus sign which is not possible

That just leaves second and fourth choices to work with

What is the value of a? <br> 14 – 2a = 4a – 16

VladimirAG [237]

14 - 2x = 4a - 16

First, add 2a to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $14 = 4a - 16 + 2a$
Second, simplify 4a - 16 + 2a to get 6a - 16. / Your problem should look like: $14 = 6a - 16$
Third, add 16 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $14 + 16 = 6a$
Fourth, add 14 + 16 to get 30. / Your problem should look like: $30 = 6a$
Fifth, divide both sides by 6. / Your problem should look like: $\frac{30}{6} = a$
Sixth, 6 goes into 5 to get 30, so simplify $\frac{30}{6}$ to 5. / Your problem should look like: $5 = a$
Seventh, switch your sides. / Your problem should look like: $a = 5$

Answer: a = 5
