Answer:

  2nd tank

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of filling, in gallons per minute, is found by dividing gallons by minutes.

<u>Tank 1</u>

  (3/4 gal)/(2/3 min) = (3/4)(3/2) gal/min = 9/8 gal/min

<u>Tank 2</u>

  (5/8 gal)/(1/2 min) = (5/8)(2/1) gal/min = 10/8 gal/min

10/8 gal/min is more than 9/8 gal/minute.

The second tank is filling faster.

diamong [38]

Answer:

x^\frac{21}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an expression and we have to transform it into an expression with exponent.

5th root of x can be written as x^\frac{1}{5}

(\sqrt[5]{x^7})^3\\\\((x^7)^\frac{1}{5} )^3


The powers outside will be multiplied as: (x^a)^b = x^{ab}

(x^\frac{7}{5} )^3\\x^\frac{7*3}{5}\\x^\frac{21}{5}


where the exponent is \frac{21}{5} and it is a rational number by definition of rational numbers
